So I have now have the post counts, trophy points and total likes fixed.

But what do we want to have in the member card? Please note that these will be on every style except XenMinimal, which will continue to have none.

what exactly are trophy points?
Trophy points are awarded at certain milestones based on post counts and the number of posts you have that are liked. The more likes and posts, the higher the trophy count.

Likes are worth about twice as much as post counts.
 
When you reach certain milestones concerning likes or number of posts, you receive trophies. These trophies all have a value associated with them. Add the values and you get your amount of Trophy Points

How the hell did I get ninja'd by a man so old, moving slightly causes his hip to break?
 
I'd go for post and trophy counts only, post count are basically the standard in a forum and trophies or trophy points are just nice to have :)

I like just likes...
 
I enjoy the Like system, especially when they are earned not given. I do however as the current "Like" champion strongly feel that putting it as well as # of posts trivial and unnecessary. If you want to somewhat alienate people as well as separate the vets of HF with the fresh newbies who have been great additions to HF (Bananahands and LittleKag come to mind) you'd consider this. :)

Let the stuff mellow out.... people's avatars, personal titles and locations is all we ever needed.

In which template? Do you know off the top of your head?

Found it. :D
 
I think the poll should of been more like a questionnaire thing with:likes y/n; trophies y/n; post counts y/n to more easily tell what people really want and dont want cause now you have to look through all of them and combine parts of the results to get an accurate picture instead of just seeing the highest voted.

Anyway I agree with Jay about the likes could be offputting because the fewer posts you have the more likely you have less likes and one could feel disliked because of it. I really enjoy how it is now with basically being more of a private thing with telling someone "hey you had an awesome post" or getting told that and hopefully brightening up yours or their day.
 
I think that most people post to air their views on a thread. Surely nobody writes just to be "Liked". I find the present "all three" information interesting, and despite having a low "Liked" total, am in no way envious of those with a higher count.
 
Dave, what is this? Your thread title promised information on the avatar and all you're giving me is cheap tricks. How am I supposed to regain my honor you, my only lead, are just fooling around?
