Yep, a new ranking system is needed
And Chicago Storm should be given his own Chuck Norriss type level!

We're working on this guys...we've been meaning to implement a new system for a while now. This has been on the backburner for too long
 . If anyone has any suggestions for a new ranking system, we'd love to hear some more!

I'm sorry, but I'll have to disagree with this one. Kind of an East Coast bias with the MECS/HECS levels.

You don't need a different title for every set of 1000 posts. I kinda like the tornado scale, just add in the rest of the numbers and broaden it. I think my set up would work quite well. |

Hmmm. Do a different one for summer/winter.
For summer most of spring and most of fall. Bl1zard (sp) idea. For winter part of fall and part of spring, do something like this. (Mostly so_whats-happening's idea) 0-150 Flurry 150-300 Snow shower 300-600 Surpressed storm 600-1200 Clipper 1200-2400 Normal storm 2400-4800 Blizarrd 4800-8000 10 year superstorm 8000-16000 Storm of the century 16000+ Why are you on these fourms still? -------------------- Hope for Spring

Sounds fine, but there is no need at all for us to have two different scales for winter and summer. In fact, and I mean this with utmost respect, that's just stupid. Confusing and pointless. Either use a winter theme or a tornado theme. I prefer the latter. |

Ehh, fine.
 .Wouldn't it be confusing to have an f5 torando In the winter?  Or... we could not even notice it was a post counter and put f1-f5 and be done with it. Or we could do the winter theme all year. -------------------- Hope for Spring
