Somebody made me BOD leader somehow, but who's in it just me ?

So I like this wotpp evolution & badging business thing, but I think these meetings I keep missing are giving WOD ideas too much creedence ..

Colonel
7001-7500

Brigadier General
7501-8000

Major General
8001-8500

Lieutenant General
8501-9000

General
9000+[/indent]

Bah humbug me says, on that scale I only just made it to Colonel & look who's a General :p (Adept you've got to stop having meetings without me ! :D), but I'll be a Brigadier by the end of the week :p

I think anyway tech posts count double at least to any less 'worthy' stuff as (previously discussed & agreed on I might add) so should any extra witty ones, cunningly informative ones, ones which produce any interesting assides, supplementaries or tangents, ones which confuse (but must have some hidden agenda, just 'confus-ed' isn't enough), & any quiet mixing (though not obvious stuff) must of course be rewarded too :D, so I guess I want marks for 'style' ;)so any BOD affliates can be ranked specifically by me (post up your requests) & I'll come up with some better titles than that lot once you've presented your post count tallies & everyone in true wotpp style has had a say .. ..This offer holds good for any PMS suffers or PLS as he deludedly calls himself too :D - I reckon anyone over 1-2k deserves ranking this way in WotPP terms as they are ready for special training then, & onwards to being wotpp Gurus :D

Let he who is without wotpp cast the first stone ! ... & people on the internet shouldn't moan about people posting crap, who read it .. & wotpp is the opium of the helldesk op & other such lousy paraphrases coming to mean we all do at some point, so lets use it creatively ;)

Sounds fair enough, as you've only done 60 posts though, we might have to reduce yours to 15x. I'm over 300 (posts not years) so I should get 20x....

So often I have nothing pressing or I'm waiting for something to finnish or something to turn up , or for someone to come yada, many yadas, yada ! So I do tech queries 'with an aim to educate' & I come & wotpp to entertain myself whilst working or at home instead or as well as tv, but I've realised I can do both at once, so that's creative wotpp'ing with education too as a kind of public service - a path to wotpp nirvana :D

Since he agrees tech queries count extra, is that tacit approval of my other suggestions on the previous page ?

Glad to see such enthusaism :D .. have no fear I have a cunning plan ;) which of course involves many post padding oppertunities ! .. they must offer their post count improvements & requests for promotions, once beyond a certain point of posts, & they must prove their 'worthiness' for further promotion with examples of their post padding abilities & unique style & tricks etc by reference, counter productions will be allowed by those against their elevation in the pecking order .. he who can generate most pads, may not be the best padder for he must follow 'teh way' & create future padders, to give him something to pad around !

That's as daft as I could manage today, so I hope you like my plan :D !?!

I like where you're going with this, ed.

I first thought this was going to be one of those "great ideas that is completely impractical", but this has potential. :D

There is now way I could do all the evaluations on my own though, and it may be necessary to implicate some of the middle management along with us to handle the workload.

BTW, your status of General had already been granted, remember?

No need to post pad for any other reason than the shear joy of it now. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif

I don't know...you guys are starting to sound sort of elitist to me.
While initially I will admit to the WOTPP program being somewhat attractive, I think that if you try to regulate it, it will only lose its lustre, and become something other than the fun it should be.

Team WotPP meetings always required for any decisions like this & of course a padding fest on anyones claims - we get to decide at the end, so no participation required or real thought, just go with the flow .. we could allow junior ranks to oversee any minor promotions once we are confident they have 'teh way' too .. who've you got in the frame ?

This makes much more sense than that elitist folderol that -ed is espousing!
I have been usint the Internet for a LOOONNNNG time, and I have to respectfully disagree that it is all WOTPP.

Nothing "cyberpomorphic" about the net. It just *is*.
