It’s less about the title but more about the premise. Everyone I talk to says “it doesn’t matter that much” yet the most debate this thread has is whether or not I deserve to keep a damn title
Also I’m mad that my name is being used as a political plot device without me even being involved in it
my argument is that it doesn't matter much BECAUSE it has been so misstreated and misshandled where the actual title has lost any meaning, I'm trying to reverse that
has it ever had a meaning? some oldfags have like 13 pages of post in total
The meaning is that abraker scrolled through old posts and the ones who made an impact in his memory got the denizen title. Just posting a lot is not enough, I don't even like the current requirements, they shouldn't exist. It should be people who were part of the community and left an impression on OT. Usually posting a lot does that, but there were people with less posts who still excelled at it. It's arguable if Blushing did.
I have thought about this every time the denizen topic came in past, But till now I have not find any rule which is simple for future gov to follow and is great at selecting denizen. The problem with 'people who were part of the community and left an impression on OT' can turn into.
MP-1: I like this guy, he should be denizen
MP-2: I do too
MP-3: I dont dislike him
MP-4: I am not too sure, he is quite new.
MP-1: Come on everyone knows him and he is a good guy.
MP-4: sure...
It can get really biased. I dont see people like scyla getting denizen early since his post are not 'quality' but clearly people like him have big contribution in keeping OT! active. Thats why I want it to be more like
MP-1: I like this guy, he should be denizen
MP-2: I do too
MP-3: He does not meet the post requirement
MP-4: Yeah he does not but according to x rule. We can remove the post requirement if all 5 of us including president agrees.
MP-1: Yeah lets state why you want him to be denizen.
Something like this is what I wanna implement But its not a solid plan and I dont promise to implement it. I will discuss it after I won that is. Some sort of rules, either creating 2 queue on the basis of quality with 2 requirement(mostly not but fun idea to discuss)
