Yep, models almost never come here to stimulate their fanbase and if they do, they spy/lurk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with some models they don't want to publicly acknowledge the positives of one site b/c then other sites would get upset that they didn't get acknowledge. From there all this unnecessary drama will follow. Also I don't think they want to seem like they are endorsing anything b/c that might cause issues with their agencies, companies they work with, etc. But I do hear you and wish it was different.

elfstone Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 @Prettyphile @PinkCouture The rating system was a great way to incentivize relevant posting. Why did you guys remove it? Rebellefleur had actually surpassed 1000 I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked for it to be removed. We have had issues with a rating/ranking system on the old forum, decided to gave it another tried and it didn't work out as hoped. Maybe we will revisit this option in the future but for now if you want to Thank, Like, Laugh, or whatever someone's post you have to do it the old fashion way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the way it is currently setup is not suitable for BZ.

What has been done is done and well, if there is a better system lets implement it for those who do post and contribute as soon as we can.

Seriously. This also illustrates why the current available ranking/points system isn't suitable for BZ You guys survived without it before and you will survive without it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is kinda limited now Also, I think some people wanted the points to be anonymous that way they can't be judge for liking an opinion they could be otherwise criticized for We could discuss more about this via PM if you like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way now we can’t have fun anymore. It’s sad to see something fun being removed. We will always find people not approving of something, it’s normal, but we can’t even deprive everyone of something just because of a minority of people. But this is just my opinion I would be glad if you can find an option to that tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it is not an all or nothing kinda thing, like without the point system you will no longer like it here Like I said we could revisit other options in the future but for now we wait and hope for something more suitable & better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
