It doesn't read like an ego push. If anything, It just sounds like he'd like to see some recognition given for those who often contribute to specific forums (For example how TrueAmerican, JustMike or Loam have done in the Fragile earth forum, or Armap, Phage, and IssacKoi have for Aliens and UFO's), those who routinely help out and are sought after for an opinion and so on.
It reads, to me at least, like nothing but an expansion of the FSME position (this being member chosen) we already have in place here on ATS.edit on 5-1-2013 by Rising Against because: (no reason given)

No poster shall be held up higher than any other.
Let the merit of each post stand on its own, and represent each user on an individual basis. Why push for grades? Read each post and decide for yourself what is deemed worthy or fluff.

I'm not following.... Why would anyone have a problem with it? Unless they themselves would be the jealous ones... I certainly would love to see who the top new members are and who the top posters on each forum are. Id be on the look out for their posts.

Not sure how its an ego thing. It would be a tool to recognize topic specific posters who don't necessarily live on ats or new posters who contribute instantly to ats with quality.

it allows me and others to read some other threads we may not have known about.
Some examples:
Top 50 Aliens and UFO Forum posters
Top 50 Gen Conspiracy forum posters
Top 50 of the month
Top 50 of the year
Top 50 new members (Maximum 1 year posting history)
Thoughts?
