Stars and Player Names - 2022 Update

2022 Update:

There has been an overhaul of our ranking system in line with our Top 50 players Podcast series.

This relates to the QPR player name and stars that appear under your username. You will notice that what you had up to now has changed.

The more posts, the better the player you are allocated becomes. The previous order was just a list I threw together 5 years ago when first putting the forum together, but this has now been updated and after a few random players up to 100 posts it will then be in the order of the Top 50.... so the more you post the better your player listed in your profile will become. There are also a lot more names for you to hit than their used to be and the gap to the next player gradually becomes greater.


I have also removed the gold stars that were previously awarded to winners of the QPR Prediction League. This is for 2 reasons:

1 - to do this I have to create the member getting the star as a staff member and it won't allow me to add any more of these, hence why ranger-boy never got his gold star last season
2 - this was set up when the site started and we only had 1 prediction game. Now we have 3 and so it doesn't seem right that users only got gold stars for winning 1 game.

Instead users will first get a silver star at 100 posts once they hit the Top 50 players. The star will turn progressively more blue the more they post and go up the rankings. A gold star is instead now awarded once a user hits the Top 10 QPR Players with 2 stars for hitting the Top 5. Then once a user hits the Top 3 QPR Players from our Top 50 list they get a gold QPR crest instead of a coloured star.

Everybody is now on the same QPR Player system and my own ranking is also in line with this.

The player rankings change up to 10000 posts when you hit Number 1, then their is a special Hoops & Dreams status once users hit 15000 posts.


If users still want to have any of their titles from any Predictions games listed in their profile they can do this by going to EDIT PROFILE > go to the PERSONAL tab > then manually fill in the 'Most recent Status' box. So if for example you typed in 'QPR Prediction League Champion 2022' in that box it will appear on your profile box when you post.
Alternatively add it as your signature on site
