Yes but then they will not get nominated. I think 200 minimum posts is a good rule, its not a lot by any standard.

Yes that's good point... I've edited requirements to include a minuimum of 200 posts. I think once you've earned a title you should be able to keep regardless.

Do have have any nominations?

kagin... Sage

Speedplay ... its a fair point. I think min posts is important because unless there's at least 200 we don't really know the forum member. 200 is quite light really.

OK, but not in this thread... I'll take that as a 2nd nomination, so lets come up with some good suggestions for him (if you haven't already).

Now, this 6 months rules is very good because the members cannot 'hurry' it up so to speak whereas for the 200 posts rule, one can easily post rubbish to reach that target.

Cheers.
p.s. If this 6 months rule proceed, please take away my title as I would not qualify. I would gladly wait my time because I truly believe this rule is a very good and enforceable rule

Choi, I don't think there is a need for retrospectivity. Besides you got your title Any which Way You Could don't throw it away now

Hi Fattchoi,
Fair and enforceable rules do not apply in table tennis anymore. You should keep your title. LOL I think we can tell if someone is posting for numbers.
I am glad you are in the forum.

Thanks to Reb and Hookshot for your endorsements In that case, I won't throw it all away then

Seriously, now that I have further thoughts on this matter, I think both the 6 months probation and 200 posts rule should apply together to all new members starting as of certain date (to be decided by Mr. President ) so that it does not take effect retrospectively. That way, those who think of spamming will know it won't work because they still need to be member for at least 6 months. As for any existing members, who have already been nominated by ranked members, they will still qualify to a title.

I thnk Mr. President should firstly decide on a start date and on that day, put up the rules and regulations to avoid any confusion/contention. So far, I think the following conditions would work fine:

New members who joined as of (start date) can only obtain a title when they fulfill the following conditions:
a. Must be a member for at least 6 months
b. Must achieve 200 posts
c. Must be nominated by at least 2 ranked members
d. Members who qualified to a title may come up with one by him/herself or request members for suggestions.

Please add any other logical conditions that I may have missed out to the above.

Cheers.

Good set of requirement fattchoi, I like it! The 6 months can simply refer to the date they joined...Yes I agree all members that already have a title should keep it... Unless anyone object, I'll update my first post with the new requirement...

Just as long as the nominatirs come up with a decent name, lol. Any ranked member can make suggestions though so should be ok. I think the nominated member should also be able to suggest their own name and as long as 2 ranked members approve, then they can have that name if they want.

I quite agree with Reb. As long as the name is not something rude or vulgar, then it should be OK.

Cheers.
