no, only one does, but i am here to inform you that, only the yellow names are truly gifted :biggrin:

/runs

nepotism aside...

i did have a thought once about some sort of a color code for names.. green for admin, and a "blah" amount of colors for, whatever you have done to benefit/contribute to snarkpit..

i never longed to be an admin or mod or whatever at snarkpit, but i would like new people to know my history in critiques.. or others might say, my history as an ass hole.

my point, we have many options to honor our members.. a color code could prove beneficial.. the problem would be, 'fairness" we are a mapping site, but more so an editing site.. how would we honor people fairly.. IMO time here is not enuff, cause i have been here longer than most all mods/admin, but do not count myself their equals either..

its something i feel needs polled.

Colour of name is a value determined by SnarkMarks! Atleast it should be...

Admins, etc. get special colours because theyre special.

Ha, show the user's rating on a scale from red to green names. And make admins blue or white.

And Snarkmarks aren't an indicator of community experience or role, as the system is easily and often exploited, though innocently enough. I myself would like to think that I've made a significant impact upon the place over years of being here, but my Snarkmarks are quite a bit lower than most because I don't rate people often or have a lot of maps.

i reflect lord cass's sentiments but feel the snarkmark system could be used, if it were refined to a point of reflecting our real contributions..

hence my poll.

i am of the opinion, that some feel i was in error for posting the poll, but in reality, they failed to understand my motives.

the question remains, how would the snarkmarks accurately represent us as individuals?

personally, i am in total favor of the system, but feel it really needs tweaked.

1) post counts should not add to snarkmarks.

2) maps should not, because some/many have a s**tload of crap maps at their disposal.

3) if maps do count, only those rated should apply, thus removing the rest from contention.

4) tutorials, but only thru a rating system, poorly written/rated tuts gets zero to 1 point, better tuts get more accordingly.

5) reviews, when we get them, and rated as tuts.

6) problem solved, in the editing forums

7) personal ratings, the more you get, the more snarkmarks received.. IE orph has 52 votes, he receives ? snarkmarks.. jon doe has 5 votes, he gets his share.

i am sure any or all of these suggestions apply, or could apply with some more thought, and initiative..

opinions????

Most of those already apply, but all maps do count towards the total- although it's linked into their average rating, so yes if you make lots of crap maps then you won't get as many (it's now linked to the square of the average...) Their ultimate purpose is to show relatively how much each person has contributed to this site, with an obvious bias towards more maps and tutorials.

I reckon the snarkpit should have like awards of snarkmarks like Red cross and stuff. So people who've made a long dedication to the site or something get a snark mark award or something. Like Cassius would get one for his forum services and constant destroying of peoples' wills to live. :lol:
