I don't know... I've seen lots of people who talk a lot but don't ever really say that much... I'd be worried if we started calling people "PHD of Life" just because they posted and posted. I mean, look at Bakersfield... obviously NOT someone who is REALLY smart like ME, but yet with more posts. So that scale won't work.

I think it might be fun to add some ranking categories, but maybe we should make them names of members, with the members with the least time in the band as the tiny numbers (poor Justin!) and then with probably John being third to last, then Louie, and then Bob being some astronomical number of posts.

I don't think I'd be too keen on being ranked as Elephant Memory 100!! LOL!!!

[BigD]

I like the idea of a funny ranking system, as long as nobody takes it seriously. And more separation-IMHO, it should be like 10, 50, 125, etc.

You'd have to make a whole separate category for us chatty women.

Well, at least I am not Well Rounded anymore....At least in my cyber life. In my real like it's a little different. Just call me the Michelin man!!

Hmm, I was kind of thinking of putting ranks in. I had a mind to just list off the Petra albums, so you'd be "Petra" with less than, say, 20 posts. Then "Come and Join Us" up to 50, and so on...

Hey, Micah! I like that idea!! A higher posting could be Beyond Belief, a lower one could be Never Say Die. Hey, I am liking this more and more!!

[String]

How about names of Petra songs like Run For The Prize, Beyond Belief, Occupy, On Fire, Stand In The Gap, Second Wind, Come And Join Us, Wake Up (From the first album), Gonna' Fly Away, Walkin' In The Light, Back Sliding Blues (low posting count), Enter In, etc.

I am sure there are lots more!!

Hehe... I was WONDERING if you were going to jump in on that!

I like that idea! Than (hopefully) we wil continually bee adding new CDs, and so new ranks! Yeah!

[onnyII]

Well........ I just gave the idea...........

I most admit I like the �Petra songs names" idea... hehehehhe

What would I be then? "sleeping giant"??

[spottacus]

To kipe a couple of Jethro Tull titles, we could use Thick as a Brick for newbies and Too Old to Rock, Too Young to Die for the old-timers. Eh? Eh?

[BigD]

An idea I've seen work at other forums is letting people decide their own titles-of course then we'd have a few that weren't Petra related, but I'm sure we could work around that.
