on the front page we have:
RR7 RR9 RR9 RR10 RR6 RR9 RR8 RR8 RR8 RR5 RR9 RR7 RR5
we'd cut out all of three threads (woo!) if we made it RR7+
it stays RR5 - if anything I'd prefer (my opinion) to see it just RR5 and RR10 but then it's a long way between your grats threads.

well, maybe depends on what class etc and play style... for some ppl rr5 is very nice since they only solo and dont run with zerg etc... for other rr6 is nothing since they run with fg all the time...
Just look on the character and its playstyle if it deserves a gratz or not..

at least there is something we can read about beside grats on rr1-2 threads for someone most of us never heard of. But it's just my point of view. I generally don't mind grats thread, as I just won't ever click on them, tho it's a bit funny to browse like 15 grats thread till I find one which isn't about that.

There has already been at least one poll and numerous threads. The key point for me is that the grats threads are not automatically generated by FH when someone dings rr5 in game, the 'community' post them. If people don't want them, don't post them or reply in them and they would quickly die out.
If they don't quickly die out then clearly the 'community' DO want them.

I do not agree. If you played gimp Classes, and/or are an unskilled player and/or can't play often then RR5 is a big achievement still.
Keep it as it is.

Prepatch I would have agreed, however daoc is old game and most of the playerbase are experienced, there are not really many new players starting up. With this insane increase of RP gains in rvr rr5 should be easily doable for all with not too much time and effort. I understand that rr5 may well be an achievement, but too often do I see grats xxxx on rr5, and I know that player have used like 2 days on getting the ding, and when multiple threads like that emerge it becomes a bit zzzzz, especially when that player who dinged rr5 this week, dings rr6 next week as well.

I can understand that point of view, but the only issue I really have with it is that it isn't universal. I have played a long time on all 3 of the characters in my signature, yet only one is RR5. When I manage to get the other two that high, and if someone was thoughtful enough to post, then I'd love a RR5 thread. Especially for my Paladin, it takes a long time for me to make RPs with the rarity of true 1v1s these days

Again some people fail to see the point. It is not THE grats thread that people mind, it is just that grats thread has been MOST of the threads lately, mainly due to a lot of people dinging realmranks AND the strict modding closing all other threads. When like 7/10 threads are gratsthreads, it becomes annoying. From my point of view anyways.
