Light Knight: Far less strain on the database this way. But I'll look into finding a good way of doing it like syndromes.

Ok. That way it would be italic when you have the 1/35th syndrome. Would that make it easier to program?

Yes, it has definatly affected me, but since I finally got it yesterday, I think that I`ll dim down and once many others get it I`m sure that it will stop affecting people`s post habits.

I think what you mean't to ask was "post more", I can fix that for you if you want. Besides that I say yeah, it gives people something to work for per se and maybe even gives them some motivation to post more at times. Kind of looks cool as well.

I think it does. It makes me proud to think that I posted 25 times in a day, and then slightly disgusted that I actually spent so much time to post 25 or more posts in a day. It is a cool thing to gain, and I do like seeing my name in italics more than in regular print. It makes me post so much more- I try to get my name in italics at least every time I log into Viz, which really helps bring up my post count, so double win for the system. I think its a great idea to generate more posts and thus more traffic. Of course, having the different syndromes also helps as well.
Ironically, I am posting this from a non- italicized user name. For now.

I think it does because some people might just find a lot of good threads to post in, then look at their name and think "Why is my name like that?" (if they didn't go to the Help Center) They would go and find out about how to get your name italicized and they would probably make at least 25 a day just to feel special or to show off. I don't mind posting at least 25 times a day, as long as I can find good threads to post in, I'll do so.

Names are what now?
Honestly, I dont care about it but there are probally people that do.
The problem is those that do care that much about it might often go about getting it the wrong way, ie spamming.
At the moment I dont really see the point to it.

I think there should be another feature, such as your username turning into shades of black once you pass 100 posts for a day

I don't think it really makes a difference cause it's just the Username in Italics. I don't people will really pay attention to that.

If they do that for 100 posts for a day, the board will be full of spammers!
And that would mean a lot of work for all mods(that includes me, that's why I'm worrying,lol).
