I say we create a "verification scale" with a post to like ratio. The bottom of the scale would be named after the most dubiously infamous of poster perhaps "Sultan", all the way up "ERDoc" status at the top.
I ask that we keep the thread on topic ;). We're all just full of idears aren't we :D

poster perhaps *He who must not be named*, all the way up "ERDoc" status at the top.

There.

Edit: In all fairness to this thread and verification ideas, why not just judge a person by the content they post? Most regular posters on here know just what the hell they're talking about. Yes theres always a few of those rotten eggs but they seem to be few and far between nowadays. Also should go along with taking everything and anything on here with a grain of salt. Just because I have to have a solid front facing red light on my ambulance doesn't mean thats the case everywhere (hope people catch my drift). Im personally not for it, but I'm not against it. I judge everyone on here by what they post.

I use a very scientific process to determine who is worth listening to:
I look at the like:post ratio...
Essentially how many likes the person has compared to the posts made

If somebody has at least a 1:3 ratio (200 likes:600 posts), then they obviously do a decent job of waiting to make helpful comments rather than just adding to the noise

@ERDoc may have one of the most impressive like:post ratios around (1.11:1) and I find nearly every one of his posts helpful

Strong indicator to say less and listen more....or post less and read more. :)

Beat me to it. The likes didn't come around until a year ago, maybe two at most.

Just realized I've been here for 6 years....
