Like on MRS2Be, we have like newbie missie, guru missie etc...could we have something like that here??? maybe newbie mummy, guru mummy or something?? Or has anyone else got any other suggestions??

[claire]

Ah yes, they're called ranks. We'll take a look at this also and probably stick to something similar to mrs2be ranks because they seem to work well.

Good thinkin' Toot!

Thanks Sarah!!

Could we maybe not, its not a posting competition and threads might start to loss context or meaning if people are posting just for the sake of climbing up ranks!

[086mummybear]

I didn't think the 'rank' thing ever caused problems? Or am I being naiive here? I understand what you mean if there was a posting competition then threads sometimes just fill up with nonsense, but who ever posted just to climb 'rank'? That would be pointless.

We're unlikely to have "post to win" competitions on mum2be within the foreseeable future. Over on mrs2be, Claire tells me that she hasn't seen any threads where people seem to be posting just for the sake of posting to boost their rank & post count. It was a different story whenever there was a posting competition!

[086mummybear]

That's what I thought! The posting was crazy whenever there was a competition, I couldn't keep up!! But I don't think anyone has been, dare I say, childish enough to race through the ranks yet!

I agree mummybear - the posting comp was an entirely different thing And i don't have a clue what rank i'm on on mrs2be at the moment but i like looking at it every so often

[MammyT]

Good idea. That posting comp was madness, I lived, slept, drank mrs2be like alot of other missies.
Will we have a name over here or will we just be mummies

[Beanie]

i like the ranks think its cute but it never makes me post more to move up

[MrsM2010]

I'm just thinking of women who have had difficulties TCC so maybe not call us 'mummies'.? I don't know. Like seeing how many posts and things like Mrs2be and names a great idea!

[Beanie]

thats a very good point MrsM2010

[MrsM2010]

Maybe something kid related but not mum related! Something like 'bears or something!!! I have no idea!!!

[MammyT]

I never thought of that mrsM2010 good point.
