At least I'm active on the forums.

Active should not mean the number of posts ;)
Active user should first mean useful(as for me).

I suppose.
I don't think it is really that necessary though. The old rating system was bad because you could give 1 balls to people and it created a negative atmosphere, especially on the help forum. This new system is an improvement because it is a positive reinforcement only, and encourages users to post in my opinion.
Also some people might like to collect balls and so they might put more effort in to posts to get more balls.
And there is no in-game advantage to having more balls, so I don't think it really needs to be changed any more. There are other things in BB that would be better to work on.

So I'm not helpful?

I think number of posts has a lot to do with how active you are.
Posting 1 helpful post a week doesn't make you active.
When I say you I don't mean you personally.

I think the new system is great.

Although, right now, I am missing the opportunity to one ball the whiners who are having a go a Naker because he is active in the forums.

lol I bet naker gave you a ball for that post!! lol

If it wasn't for people like naker that actually puts alot of effort into his posts to make sure the info and advice is as helpful and accurate as possible.. then the help forum wouldnt be very helpful!!

exactly im glad the naker haters actually have to step up and say something now rather then 1 balling all his posts, and stalking obscure threads to 1 ball his posts was really just pathetic.

To tell you the truth I am more than a little bit dissapointed at your comment toward Naker.... from the tone and what you wrote would seem that you were actually having a go at him for all of his posts... If the old system was back you would definitely get one ball.... and please refrain from such comments in the future..

By stalking I assume you actually mean browsing pretty much any thread on Global (English), Help (English), Suggestions, or Bugs Bugs Bugs. :-)
