Hall of fame. https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=64737.msg1266620#msg1266620
« on: July 27, 2017, 08:48:53 pm »
I have a post from before that was misunderstood by council due to the name The shadow of those who came before. In said post I stated that we should indeed have a section of the forum know as or named Hall of Fame. The Hall of fame is a place to put members along with a link to their achievement or a quote to remember their greatness in the community. After the idea was shot down and i was told that their would be no real point to said idea I began a study to see what members thought of being infamous. Now in part one i said i would indeed call upon members who would be willing to post their thoughts on my s.s posts.  Clean Onion a SR. member said he would best like to be remembered for his time in the forums. Now allow me to explain such a broad statement. If a member has 400 posts but they are all in literary arts with only one being outside of that in the newbie Zone that member would be inducted on the account of they have offered the community wisdom art relaxation love happiness and in times great conflict. Five members had voted for my power in battle. For induction for that you would have to have a w/l ratio of 3.5 minimum and have made war general or master. 3 members voted for my work as admin. This i said applies to everyone and allow me to explain why, this project is for a hall of fame now if this were made its own category like off topic general discussions etc etc i could then be inducted under this category for my help with the idea even though i have no ranking status and can not directly create the Hall myself so it applies to anyone who wants to help better the forums community with update ideas. Now it might seem unnecessary to add such a large update into the forums as Fippe94 told me recently we do have  forums news and announcements but this could take such things even farther and possibly add more activity to the chat and forums as people seek glory in their own ways.  Now while we all might try to be meek or modest about our accomplishments  the fact is some of us are just better than others at battle or talking someone through something they dont understand or even just creating newer decks. In my S.S part 2 I asked members how they would like to be remembered for their greatness. Now 5 members including Hero ranked member Tribal Trees said they would rather not had a show made over their accomplishments how ever 12 members total said they would indeed prefer to be put under the spotlight including Card curator Root Ranger Legendary member Submachine  Legendary member Espithel  Full member Doctor C and finally League organizer Zyardran Who did want to be remembered but didn't find any options in my poll that she found she preferred and said I should add options. The hall of fame would be its own category and council would post polls to determine who was added and what they would be added for even older who no longer play but are great players or did much work in the community should be added. for example Clean onion has a farewell post where he said he wouldn't have the time to be able to continue his duties in the forum and suggested other people to take over in his sted I think even though a member might not be active any longer they should be remembered for what all he/she did for us all either for active duties of admin or simply a great player amazing friend and great person to just chat with. Then a quote from chat or forums that best described who he was and a list of accomplishments  with a few highlighted posts from his time in the forums. I myself am homeless and have a very hard time finding a way to post so my posts might jump around quite a bit but i would love feed back and will post more on the subject upon my return thank you for your time and consideration - Ghvinge_nvda Darkness elemental since 2011.

I think he means a general hall of fame, not dedicated to just one particular thing. I haven't read all that, but it would have been my guess.

I took what he said and made it more readable for everyone ^^. Here's his post below, broken up:

I have a post from before that was misunderstood by council due to the name The shadow of those who came before. In said post, I stated that we should indeed have a section of the forum know as or named Hall of Fame.

 The Hall of fame is a place to put members along with a link to their achievement or a quote to remember their greatness in the community. After the idea was shot down and I was told that there would be no real point to said idea I began a study to see what members thought of being famous. Now in part one, I said I would indeed call upon members who would be willing to post their thoughts on my s.s posts. Clean Onion, n SR. member said he would best like to be remembered for his time in the forums.

Now allow me to explain such a broad statement. If a member has 400 posts but they are all in literary arts with only one being outside of that in the newbie Zone that member would be inducted on the account of having offered the community wisdom, art, relaxation, love, happiness, and in times great conflict. Five members had voted for my power in battle. For induction for that, you would have to have a w/l ratio of 3.5 minimum and have made war general or master. 3 members voted for my work as admin.

Now, it might seem unnecessary to add such a large update into the forums as Fippe94 told me recently we do have forums news and announcements but this could take such things even further and possibly add more activity to the chat and forums as people seek glory in their own ways. However, while we all might try to be meek or modest about our accomplishments the fact is some of us are just better than others at battle or talking someone through something they don't understand or even just creating newer decks.

In my S.S part 2, I asked members how they would like to be remembered for their greatness. Now 5 members including Hero ranked member Tribal TROUBLE [>.>] said they would rather not have a show made over their accomplishments, however, 12 members total said they would indeed prefer to be put under the spotlight including Card curator RootRanger, Legendary member Submachine,  Legendary member Espithel,  Full member Doctor C, and finally, League organizer Zyardran. Zyardran did want to be remembered but didn't find any options in my poll that she found she preferred and said I should add more options.

The hall of fame would be its own category and council would post polls to determine who was added and what they would be added for even older who no longer play but are great players or did much work in the community should be added. For example Clean onion has a farewell post where he said he wouldn't have the time to be able to continue his duties in the forum and suggested other people take over in his stead I think even though a member might not be active any longer they should be remembered for everything he/she did for us all either for active duties as staff or simply as a great player, amazing friend, and great person to just chat with. Then a quote from chat or forums that best described who he was and a list of accomplishments with a few highlighted posts from his time in the forums.

I myself am homeless and have a very hard time finding a way to post so my posts might jump around quite a bit but I would love feed back and will post more on the subject upon my return. Thank you for your time and consideration

I also had this idea a few years ago. It would be fun to acknowledge people who deserves to be acknowledged and it's also interesting to read. The reason I never followed it through was because of the massive amount of work it needs. I thought of around 30-50 people and all of them deserves around 10 sentences of text. The hard part is looking up all the info needed, which is really time consuming. Then you need to write the text in a fun and interesting way. But if anyone has time to do it I'd be willing to help a bit.

Council can definitely put something like this together, but I agree it is a very time consuming project. :)

If you do just remember it's better to really make an effort and do it good than to just write 2 sentence for each person. It's also very important that you pick the right people. About 95% on my old list were of members that no longer are active. Voting isn't really needed I think. If someone truly deserves to be remembered it will be a obvious choice. Otherwise it might turn into a popularity contest which is not really the aim.

Can we all just take a moment agree that writing a massive wall of text with no punctuation is never a good idea?
Cheers to TT, who made an effort to make the OP readable.

That said, we will join Zya and Blacksmith on the fact that there is already going to be a good amount of people, all of which need a moderately sized description. And if you start making stuff for folks who aren't on forums anymore, like jmizzle7 or vrt, it'll take some additional time, especially since not all of us were lucky enough to meet them.

However, Rome wasn't built in a day. If we just say "Oh, it's a very :time-consuming idea, therefor it's automatically bad", we're miss a great opportunity to do a project that can serve in many different aspects. This hall of fame can be used not only to show community's collective respect to folks here, but might aswell be used to introduce new people not only to the community's heroes, but also to the stuff they've done in the past. It'd also help in finding people of interest, for example, if we were to take a look though such topic, we'd probably look for folks who are into art and stuff, like Andretimpa, Lunaris or vrt.

Overall, we think this could be a great idea, despite the fact that it might take a while.

This might not be directly what you are wanting, but seemed similar enough I thought I'd share.

We do have Annual Forum Awards (Best PvP player, Favorite Tournament, Best Comp Submission, Best PvP grinding deck, etc.) and those in a small way could be considered a "hall of fame" of each years accomplishments. Also, there has been discussion about compiling all of the years Annual Awards together into one organized post or thread so that one can easily see the best of each section's progression over the years as the community grew, and continues to grow.

Remember that a person in the Hall of fame isn't necessarily a person who won many pvp events or got a master title. It doesn't have to be a person who people like that much just someone who is famous or done something interesting.

So here is some of the people I thought about on my old list:
Spoiler for Hidden:
10men
Napalm
furballdn
Terroking
Torb
T-star
Rastafla
Calindu
Majofa
Old trees
Dm1231
Antiaverage
((Keal hate))
Willing3
Essence
Kameitsu
Zeddino
Zblader
pikachufan2164
Vrt
Xenocidius
UTAlan
PhantomFox
Xdude
Deuce
Omegaraeper
Chapuz
kevkev60614
mrblonde
zeru
Qazzaq1231
Zanzarino
Scaredgirl
Higurashi
JMDT
Antagon
Some could probably be removed right away. And there's surely a few more that could be added. Both Rob, ddevans and Afda seems given in a new updated list. Zyadrahan and others are worth considering.

Seems like a worthy list, would probably add Odii Odsen, SkyIronSword, OdinVanguard, theelkspeaks and Jmizzle7. Maybe Aves, Vine and Blacksmith too

All these names need a reason to go along with them

And as much as I dislike saying it, there are subjective lines to draw, otherwise the Hall of Fame becomes a Hall
