Suggestions on forum rankings

Have a question about the website or a suggestion? Found a typo? Something not working right on the forum?

Suggestions on forum rankings

Postby Mr. Brian » Fri Oct 19, 2007 12:30 pm

I am open to suggestions for rankings based on the number of posts people have.

Right now it's pretty boring, newbie, new user, active user etc. that appears next to your name when you post.

Any idea's?

I think withahip needs his own forum. Help keep him away from the general public.

Seriously, though. . . would you be able to add a youtube link?

[youtube] [/youtube]

This way video can be posted, embedded, into the posts as opposed to a link. If a video of the band or in gen disc a band or some such else fun the video can be watched on this site.

One thing people seem to like is a forum section for talking about music/bands other than E&tB. (Rather than just lumping it in with all the other dross in the off-topic forum.)

(oops this is in the wrong thread. sorry)

Like this sir?

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/s2TJZfs5F7A"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/s2TJZfs5F7A" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Just enter the embed code from the YouTube video:
Code: Select all
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/s2TJZfs5F7A"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/s2TJZfs5F7A" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

A Chocolate Rain. The need for a Chorus in a song is so overrated.

As is the need for more than one "verse"!

Ah, nicely done. How about this:

I guess no one really cares about rankings so I'll just leave it as is unless I get a burst of inspiration.

Thanks to everyone for using the forum. It is getting much more use than I had hoped for.
