Topic Status

Post Posted: Post subject: Topic Status

I had a crazy idea about ranking various topics. I got this idea from the fact that Aoiga's "Currently Listening To..." thread is over 2000 posts now.

Iono, something like this:

<10 replies:
Unpopular.

10-20 replies:
Readable

21-40 replies:
Noteworthy

41-60 replies:
Eye-catching

61-150 replies:
Popular

151-200 replies:
Very Popular

200+ replies:
Legendary

[Edit: and if a topic goes a week without any replies at all, label it "Dead on Arrival" :lol: ]

i seem to strike between 0 and 20 replies for mine, and the higher-ups owe their count to derailment (but then again dont they all) :lol:

That's not exactly right... cause you're forgetting page views. Valerie's IRC channel, for instance, has only 12 replies... but over 16,000 page views! :o Seems rather popular to me. :-D
"Oh, if you see him coming get away if you can. Just keep on running, run as fast you can. He's a dangerous, dangerous man. And he's out tonight. And he's watching you. And he knows your house. Ki ki ki ma ma ma. No, don't turn out the light. Yeah causes hes back. He's the man behind the mask. And he's out of control." -Alice Cooper

Hmmm... you do have a point there. Maybe this should be based on hits and replies... or maybe there is some mathematical quotient that we can use to determine the popularity by combining the two...
