Owner Real Deal Posted May 1, 2011 Owner Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I know I said I probably wasn't going to go back to doing these, but it seemed like a lot of you liked the idea when I first introduced it. Once OTR was hacked, I just never put it back up. What would be the criteria? One obvious criteria would be post count, although I don't want that to be the only one. Right now, I'm sitting on 40k posts. I know a few of us have 15k or more. Back when we were smaller, I'd give out the positions to anyone with 8k or more posts. Now, we have a lot of those posters...so we have to keep that in mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teletopez Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I think it would be neat if a member could have their jersey retired in their favorite team's forum, and that could be separate from the Hall of Fame, which relates to overall posting. As for the selection process, maybe set up a group of five members and conduct the voting similarly to the baseball HOF? Voting could occur at the same time as member awards.

ChosenOne Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Post count, time on site, rep, overall quality as deemed by you and other admins, never been banned, etc. Hell no to the rep idea. Postcount, Time one site (min years requirement), and general contribution to the site. Also going what wali said when the player is retired he should be retired in his own jersey, and there should be a voting done for members to get in. Maybe keep a limit to how many people a year should be allowed into the OTR HOF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guru Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I think there should be a panel of judges (admins, other HOF members) to decide who gets in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastNiner Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Post count, time on site, rep, overall quality as deemed by you and other admins, never been banned, etc. Never being banned is a poor way to conduct voting, if you are saying that someone that has been banned can't make it. I'm saying that because Yugo should be someone that gets in, but he's been suspended and stuff before. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish7718 Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 How about like every year we have nominations for hall of fame, you need 5 nominations to get considered. Then we have a panel of HoF members and you need 75% approval from the HoF to get in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe keep a limit to how many people a year should be allowed into the OTR HOF. Agreed with this criteria. Real Deal should select judges, hold nominations and then a vote among the judges. Either that or just have a forum vote and the top 3-5 people with the most votes get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfish Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 It should be like how its done in basketball. In basketball you dont have a certain amount of points to be in the HOF. Or to have your jersey retired. For retiring jerseys in the team sections, have the fanbase for that team vote. Hall of fame should be seperate, and that should be voted on by the moderators/admins.

Legacy Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 Panel of judges sounds good. Bradon, Kyle, Aaron (?), and they pick the first two members of the HOF. Then those 5 guys are the "panel". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfish Posted May 1, 2011 Report Share Posted May 1, 2011 I should have like 15k posts. I had a hof jersey before the site closed. I think that was at least like 8k posts? Not sure, but I only have 4k since the site came back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's whatever. Post count doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner Real Deal Posted May 2, 2011 Author Owner Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 Those that weren't handed more posts, or didn't have their dates changed...it didn't happen because I had no proof of what you guys had before the hack. Using those archives, most of the members had profiles, or were shown in topics, or shown on friends' lists (with post counts), so it was necessary. To be fair, I can't just take anyone's word for it. If you guys can find your old profile, or something with your post count on it (or date joined), by using the web archive site... http://web.archive.org/web/20080802120844/www.otrbasketball.com/forums/index.php?showuser=1910 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted May 2, 2011 Report Share Posted May 2, 2011 It'd be nice if we could have a HOF for most quality posters (Nitro, Blasco, etc) rather than just guys who are active and supposedly funny with high reps as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's why you have to have a limited amount of people going into the HOF. My criteria: 3 years 12k postsOTR members vote for 5-7 members to be nominees OTR HOF'ers select 3 member to be inducted into the HOF HOF'ers get there member name put on the back of there rep team jersey and inducted into the HOF section.
