In Response To: Survey: Lose the "Top 10" ? (Spidey)

: I'm not sure how many people even look at the "Top 10" prolific
: posters. I don't even know if it is regarded as a plus or minus if one is
: prolific or not. Shucks, I don't even know if this is a point worth
: considering for most board members.

One of the reasons I created this bulletin board was so I wouldn't have to spend so much time answering questions myself. If you look at the top 10, you will see I'm using it to pretty good effect, letting people like you do a lot of work for me. The real advantage of this is the quality of the answers is better due to the wider range of experiences.

Whether or not the "Top 10" listing is a good thing is an open question. I don't feel at all put out that Lee, who works with CLC, is posting far more frequently than I do. His posts are always worth reading and that is all I care about. I welcome anyone who wants to share their thoughts.

The next version of the this BBS script has a feature for creating a little "Bio" page for each person. This is linked in with the "Top 10" listing so people can read more about the poster. Go to http://awsd.com/scripts/webbbs/ to see more about this.

The new version also overcomes the problems with the views counter. I was intending to turn it on when I get around to making the upgrade.

I am interested in hearing it people think the "Top 10" and "Views" counter are a good thing, interesting, entertaing, or a bad thing, distracting, intimidating, whatever.
