easy way for me (and others) to instantly see who is serious about this


less than 10 posts, I almost ignore them


more guys than I can remember who post saying how serious they are about this, then disappear never to be heard from again


also if you dont have white belt, you cant pm, so easy way to block spammers


lastly, I give out every belt, so if you see a high ranking belt, should make it VERY clear to pay attention to their advice

^ My favorite part about our belt system. White belts are automatic at ten posts, but after that you have to earn them. It's not based on how many posts you have, it's based on content and what you're doing infield.
Getting a blue belt took me a couple months. Then getting my purple took another 8 months after that. I was consistently working on it too and I think that all of the other purple belts would agree that you don't get purple by going out once a month or less and never posting on the forum.
Getting a brown belt requires Bravo to see you in action so you know they know their shit. There's currently only 5. Maestro, Bay, Farmer, Smoothcall and KingofAces.

I'm glad the rep cock system is not here and there are actually legit people giving advice instead of 4000 post people with almost zero time in field.

Also it's pretty fair and there is only one MOD/Admin so it's pretty unbiased as to who gets a ban and who doesn't.

Also keeps out and discourages a lot of the annoying mental masturbation threads I see all the time.

yeah a comment on an existing thread is the same as a new post in terms of post count.
