    I can't track every user, so thought I'd enlist some help. This will just be a thread you can bump as needed.

    If you see rookies on the board giving solid takes and want to say in your opinion they should be members (ability to start new threads), please feel free to make their case here.

    This guy's only been here a month, but this post wasn't bad...

    Hey, at least he can spell! Looking around, it appears that you've bumped some rookies to member status already, Clutch. Or maybe it's like looking for mushrooms in a forest. You can't find them and then you spot one. Suddenly, they are everywhere. ;)

    Can we flag the rookies that only talk about trading Tmac and Yao and complain nonstop?

    Thanks Deckard... that's done.

    No ... just report their posts. It's effective, trust me. Garbage, vulgarity or nonsense repeatedly will write their ticket off the board, you just won't know about it.

    Want to make sure it's clear though that criticizing the Rockets or a player is not a reason to report someone.

    Red Rowdies should automatically be bumped up for excluding Rockets pride!

    This guy's got some pretty solid well-reasoned takes.

    poprocks

    I especially dug this one:

    BTW nice idea, Clutch.

    If you "exclude Rockets pride" what pride will you include?

    What about reporting rookies who hijack threads to ask why they can't start threads or why they haven't been upgraded? It bugs the hell out of me, but I don't know if you care about it.

    Do only GARM posts count or posts in other forums count also?

    I think Demon77 should be bumped up to contributing status just because of all of his "contributions" to this site through the repeated and frequent posting of the MMS game links.

    That's not what a Contributing Member is. You have to donate money in order to become one.

    I know that, but this guys contributions through game links is more valuable than say 10-15 dollars some other member has donated IMO. Especially if he continues to do this all year long, I think he should be rewarded for his posts. It's not like he has to do it.

    I could be wrong, but last I heard it was $30 that got you CM status.

    It's all about the Hamilton's man. :cool:

    I've been noticing this guys post for a while now and he adds alot of good observations and insight to this website. I vote for him to be upgraded and also he has been on this site for a while now.
