This drawing, amazing as it is, only prompts me to appeal the moderators to up BB1987 to Elite status.

+1! (Even though I've been saying that for months now, especially after all his hard work on the IJN ships and his meticulous "refit" of his No. 13-class BB drawing he did for the 'Nihon Kaigun 1946' thread. )

Ugh, I grow so tired of "forum warriors"...

People's status should be apparent without a colored member title.

The fine thing with those color's is that when asking a question about drawing and an elite or premium member...etc. answer the question, you know you can trust him, but when a standard member come in and tell something, you will always have to ask... some more to be totally sure.... Of you catch my drift. But the colors is always a type of recognition, of that member works.


you see me, I was oped to Premium member, because I did draw about 80-90% of all those vessels in the Norwegian folder in a short time period. And if I had as much time now as I did back them I would probably Have doubled the amount of drawing in that folder. But I have no interest in becoming an Elite member ...at the moment! But...

Personally, I wouldn't say that this particular drawing is (IMHO) that amazing in itself - although certainly impressive, but I wholeheartedly support idea of promoting BB1987 to elite status based on His overall body of work.
Actually I would like to suggest analogical promotions for Bombhead, Kim Werner and DG_Alpha, as well as putting Garlicdesign on a fast-track for promotion to premium status.
Does that mean You're about to remove that colored member title from Your own username?

If we were to get rid of the member ranks, then yes - I don't care about having a colored title, it's only there so people can come and ask for help etc. Truly the only members who need colored titles are the moderators. Admins should be entirely behind-the-scenes.

Let the Mods be the Uniforms and the Admins can be plain clothes? *shakes head* Dear god I've been spending too much time around people in law enforcement...

I had written a long post about why I don't like forum metagaming and colored member titles, but accidentally deleted it when I split the topic. Maybe I will rephrase it all tomorrow morning.
