    I voted 'No', if it's not broke it doesn't need fixing.

    I like Star Trek (apart from Deep Space Nine), but I fear if you introduce the ranking icons system I think the 'Geek-o-meter' will go through the roof. Computer Hope IS cool. People post their problems and there are very knowledgeable people, from young to old, out there to answer.

    Please, Please. Don't make it geeky. Let's keep it 'Cool'

        True, but we need not make it too serious..

        I'd be ok with Name ranks but I think having the lpic would be a bit much.
        I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

            If we do turn into 'Computer Geek', can I ask for a Superhero section, a Dungeons and Dragons section and a section where we only speak to each other in Binary.  :P

                For the sake of humor, even though it wasnt directed at me:
