Overall Recruitment Count

[#1]

I couldnt see any ideas like this so:

My idea is an overall recruits count, perhaps on the mainpage or community which counts the total members recruited by another member. I read somewhere that it is around 25% of the new members in 2011! 

Though it might look something like this:

yesss this is a brilliant dipiction i know

do you mean in addition to kudos and solution count, there should be a recruit count?

[#3]

It would give away too much info to giffgaff's competitors on their growth projections, no point in helping the enemy

The members have spoken and unfortunately this isn't what they're looking for right now. We love ideas so don't be disheartened, try again - we look forward to it! - http://giff.ly/fromggtoyou
