My Idea to reduce FP Counters/Reminders
-
Hi, this is my idea to reduce the FP counters and reminders on saves.
I think that every user should have a profile ingame that has the stuff on the website such as average votes and highest score. It should also have a detector for FPs and other things such as longest time spent on FP or anything else that you can think of. This would be like a save and appears at the top of a users best saves.
This would reduce the FP counters on saves as each person has a proper place displaying that information. It should also not be able to be posted so anyone who is interested could check out some other user without the "save" clogging up the most recent section.
I posted this on in the Front Page Reminders section and it was liked so I decided to make a topic for it.

I don't see how this will stop people from saying how many front pages they have had. I mean people are proud when they get front page, they want to show it off. They would put it in their save even though it is accessable elsewhere :P

I would not like counters like that. Things like "Longest time spent on Front page" will make people whore for votes even more than usually. Getting front page is trivial anyways these days, so there's little need to. Plus, aesthetics people will win those anyways. Having front pages will not make you a better user, just you found a way to please the hivemind. -
True story.
Also, sometimes stuff gets to fp without deserving that much.. this together with the people which doesn't know anything of voting makes you not want to keep any save just cuz it has 1- of votes. It's alearedy bad how noobs love to vote on noobish stuff, which has pratically nothing but a fancy text saying 'bla bla bla cold stuff is stronger bla bla bla'.
