[Denied] Referrals fun ranking system?

I recently made a fun topic regarding myself hitting 100 referrals and Clay had quite an interesting idea.

We do have rankings for Top Donators and Top Sythe Gold owners seen below in the user center.

My suggestion would be, instead of having this useless Middle section *Random MiniRanks* Change it to be showing our top 5, 10 or 15 Referrers?

I'm sure it would be very easy to implement and potentially make some people aim for these fun ranks / help Sythe obtain free new members?

Personally I've set myself a goal to hit 1'000 just for funs, but would be fun competing with some people on my way up there. I know some people already has up to 2.5k I seen from Partypete.

Random miniranks seems pointless, and out of place. Seems to be a gap-filler, if anything. Something more tangible and competitive seems better suited, alongside following the already prescribed format that the other 2 categories follow, this will enable all 3 categories to be of the same context (tier list).

 

Support. I don’t feel the need to reiterate as I think your reasoning is enough.

Support - makes sense to me to recognize top referrers. Also seems like a five minute change for Matthew.

 

Support, referrals bring more noobs, gimme their money hehehe, jk but ya. Referrals are important for site flow of new customers, keep em coming

I'll offer support as well. I like the idea for those who recruit a lot.

Nice idea for member competition and quality of life of the site.

 

Support,
anything that promotes people advertising Sythe more is a positive in my eyes.
Congrats on 100+ refers as well!

I support this. Doesn't seem like a big change at all, it'll be nice to see who's on the top of the recruiting leaderboard as well as possibly give incentive to others for recruiting more beyond the mini-rank and badges.

 

Would be fun to see certain rewards for such, I know in such cases we get the referral champ mini rank but it isn't really something viable for everyone to be able to earn, and the same for the report stuff in the same scenario.

Support.

 

We’re in the process of building the next generation of Sythe on a new version of XenForo. Unfortunately, XenForo 2 doesn’t have a referral system and we’re not currently planning to write our own.
