What Is This Idea?
The idea is simple, reconfigure the forum, as well as the merit system, reconfigure it so that if a user does not earn atleast 1 merit in 120 days, that user drops he's current rank for the lower one, and if in another 120 days, the user still does not earn 1 merit, he or she again drops the current rank for the one lower, just like that until that user is back to newbie... This can only apply to junior Members rank and above.
Not good at all.
So the work of a good poster that are no more on this forum wout not be noticed. I like the way j see some old posters and know their rank easily which indicates how good they were in the past.
