Hi guys, This is an excellent idea. I don't get on as much as I use to anymore. I have my hands in a few other things now. If this every gets off the drawing board I think the mods should decide if the first members are blanket installed or hand selected. After the first batch then as stated more than just post count will have to be looked at. Just having the Addict title can't be the only reason to allow membership. You will have members posting all day and night trying to get in. Anyway very nice idea.

I never agreed with the switch to the new promotion scheme but drd made that call and had every right to do so.
It would be nice to see merit have value again. It would give those who have given so much of their time and mental energy a small reward and a goal with actual meaning for others. As long as drd does not have to listen to more complaints then it just might work.
The way I see AD now is that all-inclusivness is the standard here unless you are a rather blatant rule breaker/spammer. Since the rule change the way to get ahead here now is to have lots of posts, so thats what folks do. Adding this "exclusive club" would go against this. Not a bad idea as far as I'm concerned.
I couldn't agree more with Lethal_B's post and also IMHO his attitude is what will make him a great Addict when he hits the big 2500.
Hi Jerry!
I know what you mean about the "other things". I actually found a way to make a few $$ with the PC so I'm not here as much as I'd like to be. It's always good to get back here and help out a bit and see what's going on though.

if this were to happen...
what would happen to the rest of us like me.... :(
we'd feel left out, i'm still only a member with like 400 or so posts, it'll be a long, long time before any one lets me near AD Addict so...
anyway i suppose setting up an IRC room would be great, maybe have two, one for the mods and AD Addicts(is it possible to type sarcasticaly <?>) and another for all other users because i think that a lot of users would be benifited by real time help, but ofcourese things like remote assistance and things like that are out of the question so why not this...

Naw, it wouldn't be the same for Seniors. In an Afterdawn Addict, you have someone who had been dedicated enough to achieve the feat and hence deserves the priviledge..

Anyone that reaches Addict statis (2500 posts) and actually posted helpful answers (not just BS) deserve the title. However, in time we will see many that got there by posting the one liner answers. It can't be helped with the present system. To my knowledge every Addict I know at this time did it the right way. There are many Senior Members I think would deserve to be in the lounge but you have to keep it exclusive or it won't mean anything. In time the good Seniors would make it.
Happy New Year Everyone.

Man, that seems like a long way away, hehe. I am on a miserly 2062 messages to our discussion forums since you created your account on 12 July 2005.
But hey, 10,000 will come with time, and telling newbies pretty much the same stuff everyday :)
