Well, if anything, I would rather just go with nominations over everything else...or the staff just making the decision (or even me). The rep/post idea can't happen, because there are numerous guys that have gotten older over the years and have been less active AFTER the rep system was installed. ALCS is one of them. It shows he has 25,800 posts...with just 36 rep. Same with my brother, who racked up over 10,000 posts all before rep was even used, and he has zero rep. -------- So what I would be faced with would be putting SOME in there for what they did pre-rep, and then others using the rep/post idea...and it has to stay consistent. Plus, the reputation handed out on OTR...a lot of it isn't given for the best posts. Plenty has been added for smart remarks to other people. The bad thing about leaning towards nominations is that...some of you have no idea who Erin is (just an example), or you weren't around when Jammin was posting as much as I was. Quite frankly, I don't really care much for the 10k post requirement, either...but what it does do is it promotes longevity (because nobody will be spamming OTR to get to 10k that quickly) and actual contribution. I realize what Blasco did while he was here (he's probably done posting for good, I talked to him the other day), but he really did everything in a matter of two years, which I'm grateful for, but what does it say if I stick him in the HOF and ignore Dee, who has been here since 2005? I just don't want to make this a popularity contest, and I don't want 40 members in there within the next two years. Considering we already have 20+ going in (and really, I could argue for all of them deserving it), it's going to be tough to apply a filter and leave them out, sticking others in there because they supposedly know the game more than others.
