NiteShdw Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Okay okay... I added new ranks yesterday, but today I looked at the list of new ranks and realized that only 5 posts were need to move up rank. This really made the new ranks pretty useless, so I revamped the number of posts needed to give each rank a bit more meaning. I flipped through several topics and I feel that the distribution of ranks is MUCH better than before, and it leaves room for growth (the site won't end up with ALL Admirals!).

Almost back up to commander now. It makes me sad. It feels like three months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psheldrake1 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 It makes no difference to me. Just as long as the forum/tracker stays alive. That's what I care about. BTW Nite. You should be considered president de facto. Someone will get to Fleet Admiral soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vyper Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Ranks? Post counts are just phallic imagary for us geeks, so I tend to shy away from worry about them ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

czernyman Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Ranks are overrated anyway. (They're a bit annoying to write the code for too.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer98 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 It doesnt matter to me but people with low post count may not like it that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

primehellix Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Well, actully I'm not very charmed by that "Petty officer" infront of my nickname, but it really DOES NOT matter, and even if it DOES matter for me, nobody DOES CARE about that anyway!!! It's pointless to ask what do we think when it is done weather we like it or not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFMF Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 well....it will take a while but eventually i will climb the ranks again - and anyway there were too many Admirals and captains so this is probebly a good thing....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starcrunch Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Is there anyway to mutiny, self proclaiming myself a captain, LOL, I refuse to clean the latrine...Sir. I love this site and the fact that we all have ranks, it gives the site a personal feel to it that other sites lack, we have a real sense of community here. Even thought the ranks don't mean anything they are still a fun addition to an otherwise perfect site. Thank You, Niteshdw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daffydk Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 if you get bored you could do ranks for different startrek cultures hehe :p I want borg queen! :cyclops: I dont think she had to move up any kind of rank. :) But romulans probably have a good rank system.

Hmm. They seem to have plenty of ranks... Among the drones, they seem to be ranked like the Jem Hadar... Seven of Nine though being the Tertiary adjunct of unimatrix zero one, that would seem to break with this system, unless there are a lot of more prestigious ranks to be had.

You should be considered president de facto. Someone will get to Fleet Admiral soon enough. President NiteShdw - it has a nice ring to it. I'd like this much better than our current American condition ... And thanks for reminding us - it doesn't matter how many symbols we have next to our posts - it matters that we can freely post and download. Everything else is just window dressing!
