Next week the forums should be updated to 3.7.0 which will bring a lot more new features.
If there is anything you would like to see added to the forums let me know. Also if you can collectively decide on a new user group structure that would be good! (and the posts etc required to be in them, don't have to have rep as a requirement)
Current:
Registered User > 0
Forum Elder > Days Registered: 120 Posts :760
The Ancients > Rep: 100 Days Registered: 90 Posts: 1000
Proposed:
Will update as people suggest..

I don't think anything is *WRONG* with our system. At times it may be handled incorrectly, but the system itself is not wrong. All I would suggest is tightening them up.
There are some vets that are complete morons which kind of make the rest of us look bad. Maybe instead of an auto-change, the *PERSON WHO HAS X POSTS* should have to notify an admin that they have reached x posts and humbly ask for veteran status. That way, if the person is a total retard then they cannot make vet by filling our forums with useless garbage.
The legend status should be more restricted too. The mods should be more strict when giving rep and take into consideration whether or not the person is doing it solely for rep (nobody come and say that I am flaming you. This statement is not directed at anyone in particular. If you feel a reason to speak out against what I am saying right now then you obviously have self doubt about previous actions). This way only former mods/people who really deserve legend get it.
Another aspect that we can fix is to not have people have double status. I know yellow is cute and all etc, but it should go. People new to the site may not know that you are a mod with your yellow name and may not be around long enough to know to look for the group bar.
Just my two cents. Over time the way user status has been handled has changed. The site has pretty much deteriorated to mostly people *WITH* statuses only. When the site was more busy and had more regular members, status distinguished certain members. Now it really doesn't matter since over 50% of the people who visit daily are vets or higher.
As long as darkness flows through my veins, I will never cease, As long as my dreams still haunt me, I will never show mercy, and as long as evil lives I will never die.....

I just Figured most of it out today, and I dont see much wrong though I have seen a few high ranked people acting, well....Yeah, So is orta agree with what Hellsing said, though I dont think it should go on Number of posts, or days, becuase;
1. you could just spam.
2. how many days you have been a member doesnt matter, becuase you may leave not come back then like a year later come back and say, "Woah i'm a vet, awsome dude!"
I think it should be baseed on the content of your posts, and how respected you are, Like I've seen (but dont know much about them) But those Credits, and Rep. Point's or what-such, so mabey it could be based off those? But I don't know i've only joined this forum mabey a week ago.
Theres my words, ( Sorry for Mis-spelled words)

crimson and fuggle dont spam this thread
perhaps fuggle would know the rules if he paid a visit to this site more than once every 3 weeks.
as for what hellsing said
i dont think spamming to reach vet is much of a problem, sure a few members in the past have done so. But i bet i get to them before vet status does 
You said so much without ever parting your lips.

Along with what Hellsing said about Legends, making sure that rep goes to those that surely deserve it, people who dick off and start giving them a bad name, then they should be de-repd. I notice a real problem with that.

Theres a lot more than you realize. Looking back on old posts, you see a lot.
But how I noticed a problem with that was, no one should of been bitching I got my legend status. So obviously if they are somethings up. Yeah I admit, 100% of the things I did wasn't solely for helping out, but a majority of it was.
But wait, I really don't want to get into this again... I may just end up deleting this if theres any replies on it.
