I'd go for the case by case VIP. Though it would have to be understood that just because you have a lot of posts doesn't mean anything if they're crap posts and bugging me about it would be a sure way to not get it. I'd likely be pretty stingy with it but not in a no one gets it way. You'd genuinely have to earn it.

Because I'm not in [GSF], and such a damn hypocrite, I'll support the motion because I want to have a custom icon and description.

well, seeing as how the new members won't be coming 'en mass' I don't think that manually VIP-ing them is a lot of work.

as long as [GSF] members are auto-wip. I think that if'you're [GSF] that that means you've proven yourself WORTHY.

OK, Until this is decided I have set VIP at 10,000 posts (good luck) I will reset it to whatever we come up with.

That was the general idea.

I never really liked the idea of handing out VIPs to certain people.

Now I understand the whole "crap posts" idea but still, CE has already taken care of a lot of it with his TopicNuker(tm). If someone is here and makes it to 200 (or whatever we set the bar at) and just is not liked. I think they should still get VIP. Now I know that BangBang and Coyote wouldn't be like that, but I'm always in favor of setting up an objective system.

Now, I'm all for giving [GSF] members the auto VIP as this is our house but for the non-[GSF]'ers I think that if they make it to 200, then they should have their VIP.

The "crap posts" argument is null since CE and BB are already deleting the bad spam. Instead of making decisions at the final step, it's always better to stop it at the root.

Of course... I'm not an admin or mod, and it's your call.

case by case VIP would probably fit this part.
problem is like any forum who does VIP this way...
The admins may overlook some or just someone who may or may not deserve VIP.

I'm sure you won't get overlooked, Some1. Just aslong as you actually post here every now and then.

I think that we seem to have general agreement on this.

My proposal is that 200 posts makes you eligible for VIP. At that point members should PM an admin and we will run it by the other mods for any serious objection. If there are no valid reasons for denying it we will add them to the VIP list.
