As you may have noticed when you joined, you'll see your member ranking as "New Member" (Mine is "Administrator"). That changes and you get more stars the more posts you have. Currently, I left it as the default, New Member, Junior Member, Senior Member, etc., but I feel I want something more creative than that. So I'm open to ideas! Obviously something medieval/fantasy would be cool considering the theme of the forum. I think there can be as many ranks as we want.

What about using the ranks in the Arcacian army? Or in Talas' army?

Yes! Well not the Arcacian army. And unfortunately I don't know much about Talas' army. But it's got to be good.

So here's a list I started compiling of fantasy/medieval/military ranks. Only problem is, the ranking system doesn't differentiate between guys and girls, so I'd either have to have the ranks as they are listed here (with both), or we need to think of more gender neutral replacements. But at least it's a start that we can build on. Recruit Apprentice Soldier Lieutenant Captain Royal Guard Knight/Lady Dragon Rider Baron/Baroness Count/Countess Duke/Duchess Prince/Princess King/Queen Emperor/Empress

I love it! (I have a feeling I'll never want to move up from the dragon-rider's position. *suddenly disappears from the forum when she reaches the said rank* Heh. xD)

I agree with Katie... I would probably just want to stay at the dragon-rider rank. xD

I suppose we could just stop at dragon rider. That does seem to be the ultimate goal here.

Is there a way to give personalized ranks, per individual? Perhaps, for as long as the Jorum is small enough to manage it, you could give a personalized rank after a person surpasses dragon-rider?

I can create groups with different ranks. I think, if it grows big enough that I need help moderating, I'll call my moderators deputies, or something on that order.

Okay, so here's an updated list that we can work with for now. How many posts do you think it should take to level up?
Recruit Squire Apprentice Soldier Lieutenant Captain Royal Guard Knight Ranger Dragon Rider

I agree, that's a great list. :-D Maybe fifty posts between ranks? Though I imagine people would move up the ranks pretty quickly around here with such a "small" number. :-)

That list looks epic! I like it even more than the other one. xD I have no idea how many posts, though... One hundred, maybe?

Okay, I've implemented the new ranking. I've got it at 100 posts between ranks for now. We'll see how it goes.

Jaye, this is a seriously awesome list. And Caiti... Jaye is too nice to yell at people. :-P You're right. Probably the worst she does is look like this: (Emoticons should have sound. This one would be going "tsk tsk tsk. No no no. Not good, {fill in the blank}. ) Lol

I still need to figure out what my rank should be . . . my characters would probably say "Evil Overlord." EDIT: For now, I think I shall just put "The Author." It's better than Administrator (so unimaginative, lol).
