    I said a long time ago that threads should be limited to like 1-2 per day.

    This allows users to focus more on posting and posting quality things that get likes.

    I'd rather see plus members with 3-4k posts and likes rather than 2k like me.

    I mean I'm not trying to diss myself but the plus system is flawed in the sense of thread creation.

    Make threads limited daily and worth less points overall. Then make posts and likes have 2.5, 3k etc milestones worth more points.

    Posting more and getting likes should play a larger factor cause it also shows seniority. (For the most part)


    PS: If there is seriously some issue with me being plus, you can take it away from me. There seems to be too much fuss.

    Maybe this is a reach, but I would like to think a lot of the users and community here are from previous forums such as KTT and SL.

    I think some of the users feel entitled to some of the perks and titles because of how long we've all been around. I know this is my 4th year with most of you guys.

    It's not about them not liking me.. if people are seriously upset and think I "cheated" my way to plus, what is the point in having it?

    I don't feel like a plus member when everyone doesn't want me to have it.

    You can still add more trophies for posts/likes.. give people a broader way to get plus while still having threads as a factor.
    It balances itself out in the end.
    Alternatives I guess.. just more point options to go for after you raise the roof.

    we had 5k posts/likes but i removed it

    this will mean people can get it from so many sources...that we will have 20 plus members in a month

    Αnyway I think if you want plus status to be harder to reach
    you should encourage people to get it maybe with trophies, higher likes etc..
    200-300 threads will probably be discouraging and a pain in the a--- to get..

    Yea but how many people actually have 5k+ posts/likes? That would take ages compared to threads imo.

    Only the vets and plus member/mods do and they should be plus anyways. :cam2:

    I think there should be various ways to get plus, but still not making it too easy. fe. i don't like making threads, so far ive made 2, so maybe if it was possible with like 4-5k posts likes or something, if that is too easy then raise it. Maybe get points from recruiting members, if that isn't possible yet

    I mean I feel like I've been posting here forever and I barely have 2.2k posts.. and I'm plus member.

    Compared to 5k.. thats nothing.

    Plus you have to make sure they get the likes trophies too.

    5k posts and 2k likes won't get you plus.
    You need the likes trophies to get that far.

    You can get plus by just likes and posts. You can get it without making threads.

    I'm not tooting my own horn but I think the way I described is the way to go. Minus the limited threads part. :emoji_thumbsup:

    There goes my chance at getting Plus...

    :shmurda:

    But forreal, what about a trophy for x amount of reposts? As in if people repost you more than enough times, you can get points for it?
