This newspost is buried pretty deep in my history, and it's highly unlikely anyone is going to see this, so please speak your minds and don't worry about what other people will think when they see this, because they won't. Ok guys. I chose you all because I know you guys are quality posters and have contributed a lot for the thread. In case you haven't checked yet, you NEED to read the tentative Memberlist, Rules, and Apprenticeship guidelines I typed up or you're going to misunderstand a lot of stuff here. Link. Basically what we're going to be deciding here is who deserves to be members and who doesn't, how many votes it should take for a someone to qualify as a member, how often member votes will be taken, how many votes it takes to qualify as an apprentice, etc. We're going to use the comments section as kind of a message board. The memberlist I've comprised solely off of my own personal knowledge is this.
Inactive Users Are Marked As Underlined

UPDATED
Ok guys, the members list is finalized. I'm in a discussion right now with fahrenheit and HellboundNinja, so things might change more, but for now, I'm bringing up the idea that it would be better for every user that posts in the thread instantly be notified that they are an apprentice immediately, link them to the NGSM rules, and let him post for 2 weeks. At the end of the two weeks, if no member has brought up that the user needs to be kicked out of the thread at any time, then they become a Regular. At the end of every month, the Members will vote in people on the Regulars list who feel they are worthy of being Members.
Based on the votes I've seen below, I'm tentatively putting only Exige2009 on the Regulars list, and putting Tateos, 2534, UCanCallMeJesus, etc, on as Apprentices. I need to type up a detailed rules list and post it in the post I make to install this system, that way we can link all the Apprentices to that post and they can be notified that if they break those rules, they may be subject to getting voted for a ban from the NGSM thread. If they disobey that ban, we'll let a mod know that a user is being malicious in the thread, and they will be banned.
WHAT I NEED FROM YOU GUYS:
Right now the rules I have set are no ridiculous amounts of +1 posting, for example these one word posts we've been seeing lately, no trolling, and make sure you're contributing to the thread. I need you guys to suggest more rules and tell me which of the above rules you disagree with. Also, for now, Exige2009 is the only Regular with everyone else being an apprentice. If you guys feel someone else needs to be a Regular, or Exige2009 doesn't qual. Let me know. I'll give it a couple days, then I'll open the system to the thread on 11/19/09. Then, on the 28th or so of next month, we'll open up voting for adding members to the list, and taking members off due to inactivity or not upholding the standard.
