Guest Toothless-OMO Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 I have a question. There are so many different rankings under user names that it seems a bit pointless. I mean who knows if Pit Droid has more posts then Zeta Squadron Leader, or if Battle Droid has more then Ewok ranking on posts. It seems that what is needed is either a visual key such as stars (or something Star Wars flavor), or we need a Key that on the main page that tells which title ranks higher or lower then another title. My thoughts anyway. Toothless-OMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young David Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 That's why your posts are listed under your avatar too ... The name isn't that important (altough I was a bit mad when all over the sudden my ranking was Bantha ... wich came after Gungan I believe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paragon_Leon Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Those names increase the personal fun to be had from the forums. But like everything in life, there is a downside; in order to have your own custom name, you need to have a certain amount of posts. Stick around long enough and you'll get it..

Guest dr_death Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 it does create an urge to spam though, if you want to have over 1000 i suggest your become a spammer. yea, you know who i am talking about tirion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hannibalscipio Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 I love the ranks! But thanks, Rhett, for posting the ranks. I hadn't seen them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Im going to put that on my senate site. Its a good idea sense not many people know the rankings anyway. Oh and Zeta Squadron Leader is Tie Guys personal rank. When you get to 1000 posts you get to decide what you want your name to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ReaperFett Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 its a great feeling to know you have spamlessly got to be a Sith Lord or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Spamlessly, is that even a word? I don't think it is... oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admiral Odin Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 I always thought the ranks gave you a goal. I mean you want to have your own, if you spam you don't reach that goal, so you post reasonable. And eventually you reach it. Makes you want to post more and make the post count.

Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Thats a good way to put it, Odin, oh and vote luke! (thats my entire campaign) I made a site so go there! (its in my sig) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admiral Odin Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Impressive campaing. Short and to the point. (perhaps is should be : Vote Luke, I promise not to mess everything up) That at least gives you some lee way in your actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Good idea, people vote for me I promise not to mess everything up like Delphi would because hes an IMPOSTER! I emailed the real Delphi.... Ok that was a little off track.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Rommel Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 So, did the real Delphi CONFIRM that he has never posted here/registred? The point of ranks: Not much besides adding a bit of a "fun factor" to these forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 He replied with the simple word "imposter" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wraith 8 Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 Well i like that you can upgrade that much...... but im not posting that much..... i believe im pitdroid now... When i first joined RS.net . i posted 120 posts in one week. but i reduced my posting and am now at 480 or so and i joined about september the 15th. i joined as a recruit but when our Moderator: Ikhnaton, wanted to put an end to what seemed an endless fight of between some people who wanted to become a Rogue. he made everybody a Rogue (at that time). What i want to say is (and what some other people said here) is that there are people that will spam and start complaining that they want to become some hihger rank.. and well it always ends with banning. Im just saying what i think... what other people MIGHT do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Admiral Odin Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 There are always some who will do it. But do you ruin it for everyone because of a few? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith 8 Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 Hey IM not saying i dont like it! I like a lot..... its fun to change ranks... Im just saying there are always a few who make a problem out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
