Rand..

Definitely will pull the avatar thingee together.. Still MUCH to get familiar with on the management side of this system, as well as the main section(s) of the site...

But overall, off to a good start, and I thank everybody for the support and kind words...

Steve - re: posters and assigning a "title" or similar ... some candid feedback ...

No one wants to be called "junior", including my son!

Assigning a tag description based on number of posts encourages "quantity" over "quality".

My suggestion would be to assign all members that join the board during the first year the description of "Charter Member".

Monikers thereafter should be based on number of years someone has posted on the board. For example, after two years of posting, a member can become an Allowance Member (or a Charter Allowance Member if he/she joined in year one of the board). After 3 years, Grade III Member (or Charter/ Grade III Member), after 4 years, Grade II Member, etc etc.

Avoid negative monikers (ie "junior" and, certainly, "claimer"!!).

Just my candid thoughts! Junior Member L Robbins

Hi Guys,

Got bounced from horeracingtalk.net. Thought I'd say Hello over here.

Oracle has a good handle on the game. Read his stuff from time to time.

Site looks real good. Thanks for the invite Oracle. I look forward to learning more and hopefully one day be able to pass along some of my own info. I like the spell check and the icons

WELCOME!!! I think you will be quite pleased with all that you read here. If you love racing this is the spot!!! We have had some debates but no name calling and no trolls as of yet. If you wanna cry check out the selections people made over the weekend. Between us all you had some really nice winners!!!!!

Samarta · #13 05-30-2006, 05:52 PM

Hey everyone...sorry I didn't join you earlier...been crazy lately...glad to see some familiar names.

Steve,
I enjoyed meeting you at the Suites at RP on Sat night. I had no idea who you were when you stopped by the Suite to watch a simulcast your friend had advised we had on the tv, and a half hour later I was amazed at my good fortune to meet you. Your RP tips paid handsomely, and I enjoyed your articulate conversation and wisdom. Thanks for turning me onto your site. Best wishes!

Scuds Junior,

I'm go to try and change those monikers... It's based on posts of course, and I'm thinking of going to "weanling", "yearling", "juvenile", "sophomore", etc.. Another option is to let you all give yourself your own little 'name tag'...
