More avenues for group promotion?

I see that right now groups could be promoted based on post count, but I was thinking other parameters would be good to have too.

Promotions could also be triggered by:

• Thread Count

• Reputation

• Time Registered Overall

• Achievements Earned

• Certain Shop Items

Perhaps it could be a goal to get promoted to another group if you have to hit ALL of those or you could choose to have them disabled and only use one.

Yeah, I think the promotions could definitely use some more work and triggers. Good idea!

Another one that I like in particular is time spent online(logged in). Sometimes people don't have much to say but do like reading updates, etc. I like to reward them for browsing just as much as posting.

Auto groups would be amazing! I have this installed on a phpBB forum I have, and it works well since I don't have to worry about moving members to a certain group once they reach a certain amount of posts. I don't think I would use it on Alt Forums at the moment but maybe I will at some point.
