Many forums have rankings, master, super ninja, but its totally usless. I prefer this way.
Only way i wuld accept, is if i was labled "god".

Don't worry - you'll always be a god to me, unfortunally for you though, I don't belive in Gods

Neither do i, so i have no problem calling myself god.

You don't have to belive in me, just call me god. That suits my oversized ego just fine.

As with anything, however, if a large number of people would like to see a feature like this, then I will look into adding it.

As mentioned above I don't like the idea

I don't like the idea, I don't think there should be a hierarchy.

IMO opinion, I think additional rankings would be fun but not necessary, aspiring to be a dragon?

Spending months as an orc

What I do wonder though, considering how quick your postings number on this board (as it is such a great place to be!

) whether the words 'exalted member' should maybe be something more to work towards, ie more than 500 or 1000 posts rather than 50...

That with the 'viewer' star ratings I think is plenty sufficient. Most boards I visit only rank you after 500+ posts and no ratings...

Just a thought

But wouldn't you be part of it? You are nearing 3800 posts after all

That's not the point. It's like I think member ratings are pointless, and I would think that whether or not I had 5 stars

Anyway, we can all see how many posts each other have. We all know who the spammers are.

But who cares how many posts you have, as long as you're having fun

Edit: Nearing 3900? That's quite impressive rounding up...

3900 i have no idea what you mean

I do not see a reason for it, i can see Yshania's point about the 500 thing, but once we get into the realms of the 1000's it's a given your a spammer (except Sabre i think).

It would create a form of competition in the board, and it would ruin it's atmoshpere. I'm against any additional ranking system.

Sabre and Xyx.

Ok since none of you seem to like the idea.....It sounds like to big of a pain for Buck to do anyway. Thanks for the constructive criticism everybody.

@Azeroth sig, if it is a Viking proverb shouldn't it be Mead?
