Sure it can be abused, and it's slightly gimmicky...but it's something goofy to do when you're trolling around and over time can definitely highlight the people who are helpful and those who are not.

I digress, that's another topic. The point is, for the newcomer to the forum a way to have the dealers stand-out is still a great idea.

Someone feedback, even if it's just a mod saying Tran or Mark at least acknowledges this section of the forum exists!

also, we could add a selectable option to the memberlist area as well that would only list mods/reputable dealers/etc just a thought

When you Google Image "anybody out there" this shows up:

That may be just creepy enough to get someone's attention.

Thanks for the suggestions! But in the spirit of keeping the forum as egalitarian as possible, we've shied away from bestowing special user titles on users. I agree that certain members (some dealers) have been especially helpful, but I think that they will get their recognition and users will easily realize who are the more knowledgeable/helpful members without the use of special user titles.
