Hmmm, well on the one hand, people always love to easily find interesting users. On the other, I am not a fan of anything that highlights one person above another, even if its just for quantity of use. So I vote skip it, we are fabulous the way we are. (IMO)

I think it creates a false "celebrity" on sites... like those who are most active must know more, be more, do more... etc. I am sure I would be close to one of the top posters on the site... HOWEVER, I don't really WANT all eyes on me! If someone reads my posts on their own accord and wants to befriend me, then I would feel great... but I don't want people focusing on me (more than necessary) because I happen to post a lot. I am sure the top poster is probably Rev. Don with the Daily Tarot Readings...

I feel a few of the other "top posters" would agree...

However do what you like. I personally, don't think it is necessary. The site is pretty great now!

Blessed Be!

Yikes....For me....I post ALL THE TIME.... I don't think that this would be a good idea because I am one of those that do not deserve that kind of status. I believe that Megan is right. Although, Meg would be a great person to be on such a thing as she is has the knowledge, seniority, wit, and candor. I just know that I have read some that post all the time and have NO CLUE as to what they are talking about. Think of all the "love spell" types that would be under such a title. :( That is truly a scary thought, don't you think?

And....I have to say that ALL of the blogs lately are good though. I have not seen one that was uninformed in a while. :)

My 2 cents is - no thank you. I have no use for a leaderboard. Thank you very much for asking our opinion.

Rev. Don very rarely writes on this site, unfortunately.

My answer is, NO. Like others have said, we DON'T need a leaderboard. It's WAY too misleading.

I'm pretty sure this site's members don't even *care* who writes the most.

I'll have to go with the majority here and say no. This site's great as it is - the problem with a leaderboard is it would sort of put certain people above others, depending on who does the most. I'm happy with the site as it is :)

GREAT!!! So please everyone else feels like I do - just recently I said to Mara that I am trying to keep a low key... and as a regular poster I would now be pushed into the spotlight - thanks but no thanks... I like it is - I have email notification on and I can decide what is important to continue reading and what not... I would like if we can take this horrible grey background off - lol

Bring it on; newness and change are most wanted to cause us to grow in our trust and confidences in our community and Deities.
It could always be changed if it shows to have a negitive affect. "RIGHT"?

I kind of like it the way that it is now. I can always search back through the old posts and look for things that I've missed. But you use your wisdom, Ed, I'll trust in your judgement for all of us.
