Oh... mmkay... I guessJustin125 said:I did because I feel the same as you.
I wonder if this thread would be here if the sages never started to ask for rights... I really wonder...
I say keep the sages that desserve to be sages and then the ones who dont well maybe that will open teir eyes to be better members and they could get sagedom back so keep some only the ones who deserve and help and all will be well plus if the ones that get stripped of their sage rights and gety all mad would that maybe make these forums better in a way so keep some throw out others and all should be well in my opinion.
Ahem, here's my Zombie wisdom.
Alright, unless we get another surge of normal members, after awhile, almost everyone at TBT will become a HoF member or a sage, thus making no one higher then really anyone else. Kind of like that "Make everyone feel good" method. I don't treally care for that, as people who did more might not get as much of cedit as they derverve. But, the puplic knows that ther good already, and does not need a freaking title to spell it out for them.
If we get rid of sages, and start up with the HoF, I assume most sages will be voted into this before others, keeping the ones that should stay still in there spotlight. Sounds good right?
Well, lets say a new member just joined the fourm, and quite frankly one of the best members to graze TBT, although, Her/him may only have 100 some posts, but is putting more effort into things then anyone else at the time.
Him/Her gets accepted into the Hall of Fame, and everyones poud. As most pople like this person.
Now, the current HoF members may not have done as much as him/her ( Ok, the 100 posts where like freaking godly, O.K.? ) Everyone knows they are not as good, even though they claim they are 5000x better.
And so, one of the current HoF Members sends out a small flame to the new one, and thus starting
<big><big><big>TEH BIG FLAME WARR!!!!11!!!111!</big>
( If you know where that first came from, good for you.DD )
So, no matter what we do, some ones gonna get hurt. So, my idea is....
DON'T GIVE ANY TITLES AT ALL.
The puplic knows whos a good member, and who is a bad one. If your good, you know you don't need a title telling others that you are, you just live/post that way.

Fang, you could say that for anything... when it gets to be too saturated, as the Sage program has, then something will be done.
And your situation is very far-fetched.

Hmm...this entire debate is interesting. I've been reading Animal Farm lately, and it's scared me. :no: *shudders*
But that aside....Sages really don't do much, they're just a title...and they get to have a cool little title, like instead of "coconut", it would be "Master of Fish" (Just an example). Now, the only reason I would want to be a sage was because of the cool little title. The Hall of Fame doesn't seem like a great idea, however. That would be an even more elitist thing.
People would be wondering "Why didn't I get in", and how could the judges possibly be non-biased? They are both a bad idea. Just give everyone an option to edit their title so I could be...say...."Firebending Master" or whatnot, and everybody's happy!
That's my two cents. :gyroidsmile:

Fang let me just say that your whole theory is wrong.
Just because a selection is held every month doesn't mean someone will allowed to be let in. This isn't spin the bottle where every turn someone gets it. This is Hall of Fame like in the Pros where everyone may not get it.
Also, if a person flames at another HoF for being in it for doing less one could say they don't deserve it. If the committee feels, 2/3s of course, he is pulled and can not be re-elected for 3 months.
Your Zombie Wisdom may be current with the news at TBT but its thought process is dead.

You get judges that are mature and won't hold grudges against anyone. There are very few people here that are able to do that and most don't seem to be in the staff.Triforce3force said:
I was just thinking that, they might pick people that didn't have it already, thus running out of people!Minoranza said:
Joe the Bot is in the Hall of fame for posting! ZOMG!
The main thing That I wanted to get across was at the end.
