IMPORTANT! New User Ranks on Realpoor

Dear Realpoor members,

With new site layout, we’re introducing new Rank system that includes more functional titles and roles for forum members.

New Rank system will be used along with default ranks that users get according to their activity and post count.

The biggest change is addressed to Supporter rank which no longer exists. Instead, we now have two ranks that much better describe the role of most devoted members.

Here’s what has been changed.

User Ranks:

All members will have this set of default ranks based on their activity and post count

Fresh Meat - 1 post
Total Newbie - 10 posts
Rookie - 50 posts
Luke Warm - 100 posts
Can't Stop Posting - 500 posts
Toomuchtimeonhands - 750 posts
Sir Postalot - 1000 posts
RealPoor Sensei - 1500 posts
RealPoor Guru - 2000 posts
RealPoor Master of Posts - 5000 posts
RealPoor Jedi - 10000 posts
Dalai Lama of RealPoor - 15000 posts


Special Ranks:

Helper – Members who generally help the community with advices, tutorials and all other useful info regarding site features

Top Contributor – Members who enrich the community with useful content such as articles, news, videos, advices, walkthroughs and tutorials; who build and promote community in all convenient way; it’s the first step in becoming moderator

Moderator – Members are promoted to moderators when administration evaluates that they’ve reached necessary level, i.e. they are long time respectable members of the community, they’re helpful to the community, they’ve shown maturity in communication with others, they contribute to the site and the community with top content such as articles, guides, tutorials, news, etc.
Moderator takes care of one or few forums.

Super Moderator – Members who’ve been Moderators long enough or who’ve shown the commitment, maturity and reliability in dealing with problems and issues on the site.
Their modus operandi is whole forum, i.e. they take care of all forums.


Trading ranks:

Trading ranks could be given per request if certain members have particular interest within trading forums.

Reseller – Members which primary interest is buying and selling accounts

Powerleveler - Members which primary interest is powerleveling others’ accounts

Middleman - Members which primary interest is being middleman between two parties in the trade

IMPORTANT! Having special trading rank (except Elite Trader) doesn’t mean that you have special status or that you’ve been verified by Realpoor as reliable trader!

Elite Trader – This rank will be announced soon along with new Elite Trading system. This rank can be given only to members who are verified by Realpoor.


Penalty ranks:

3 days suspension - Suspended for 3 days

7 days suspension - Suspended for 7 days

14 days suspension - Suspended for 14 days

30 days suspension - Suspended for 30 days

Banned - Permanently banned for excessive and repeated violations of Realpoor ToS

Banned Scammer - Permanently banned for scamming, fraud and phishing.

How would one go about getting verified by RealPoor for the 'Elite Trader' rank?

It will be announced in a couple of days.

t5his new realpoor layout is pretty sweet.

I'm glad you like it.

I think the Rank system has to be totally reconsidered, otherwise it'll collapse automatically with time.
Post count can't be the sole measure for ranks. Posts are limitless . Any scammer or spammer can post day and night to have 1000 posts a week.
Many other measures've to be taken into consideration, such as the member-history: did he receive any suspension, warning,..
the membership time also must be considered.How can I consider A member with 2 years or more membership with 100 posts to be neglected relative to a new spammer with 1 week membership and 1000 posts ?
All measures considered for special ranks must be taken for Determining Normal Ranks, too.
BTW, I hoped that the "edit' feature enabled for the New RealPoor.Also, I need to watch the first 2 lines of a thread when I point at it.
Also the credit system is not operational. For the rules indicated for calculating credits, nobody'll get the correct credit value. If this value were to be updated correctly, it has to be taken as another good measure for considering Ranks.
Think that's more important than decoration.

Grand Master, thank you for your suggestions.

Credit system still has a bug, we're trying to fix.

Anyway, you gave good points.

If someone is here long enough to spam 1000 posts, something went wrong...

Secondly, people that have been here that long (2 years +) and have a very low post count must not be that active, so they wouldn't really care about this.

Also how long they have been here means nothing anymore. We just had to ban someone who joined back in 2007 for scamming.
