Hey guys,

I just wanted your opinion on a matter; how would you react if the staff decides to remove the Sage program IN FAVOR of the Hall of Fame? I doubt that Hall of Famers would have a board to call their own, but they would have their names on the site, along with some other stuff. This would definitely eliminate some of the current problems with the Sage program.

Thoughts?
 
This is just some preliminary discussion, regardless of whether the HoF works out or not.
 
Also Bul if you didn't read Basts post in the sage board I'll bring it up here.

I think we should reform the whole sage program like start from scratch with no sages and work our way back. Maybe the staff could get second thoughts about everything.
 
No.

Look at it like this: There are very few chances for an average member to become a Staff, but there's always a chance that they might become a Sage.
Sages have been around longer and they already have respect/public opnions toward them created.
HoF is new, and untested.

I don't think that we should get rid of the Sage program because of a few recent problems.

I do agree with that almost completly there are some sages that should stay or be guarenteed sagdom later on.

I say reform the system! We want reform, not it's complete destruction!
This is reform in a sense. The Sage program will basically become the HoF.

Not so true anymore
 
But after a while almost all members will become sages. Unless we work on changing hall of fame to like every other month.

Yeah...

I say keep it how it is...but then again I don't really understand the Hall of Fame just yet...

PRetty much all the Sages will make the HoF the first time, so this really doesnt change anything.
Indeed it does. The HoF will not actually give anyone any additional rights, all that it will do is give inductees a feeling of... how do I put it... basically it will put them in a better light because of all of the good stuff that they did.

But that's what making someone a sage does too, right?
 
But don't you think that some members might not need to be on staff, but should get extra rights for being an honored member?

But HoF = a reason to make normal members feel special
Sages become normal members.

Sages, being 1337 for the most part, are automatic favorites for the HoF

Sages get voted for HoF

Normal Members feel bad again.

No, some of the current Sages say that they need certain rights, and we wouldn't have this problem if we eliminated the Sage program in favor of the HoF.
