New ranks are done

Post by White Rabbit »

Okay, the new ranks are finally done. There might be some very, very minor tweaking, but this is 99% how they will be. You can probably figure them out, but here's an overly thorough explanation just in case.

The button on the left is your time badge. It tells at a glance how long you've been a member. It goes from New User, to 1 Month, 3 Months, 6 Months, 1 Year, 1 1/2 Years, 2 Years, etc.

Then on the right, you have your rank. They go:

ImageImage
0-99 Posts

ImageImage
100-199 Posts

ImageImage
200-299 Posts

ImageImage
300-399 Posts

ImageImage
400-499 Posts

ImageImage
500+ Posts

ImageImage
Once you reach 500 Posts, AND get assigned a title, you rank changes to these special dots.

ImageImage
These are the admin/mod dots. Only administrators and moderators have these.

And that's it. Also, your time badge changes styles to reflect your rank.

And for those who reach 100 posts under the old system, and were close to getting a title... You got one week's grace period to hit 100 and get grandfathered with a title. :)

Also... I really hate the titles for the first five ranks. 0-100 Poster, 100+ Poster, etc. just doesn't have a good ring to it. If anyone has any better ideas, I'm open to suggestions.

How about something making fun of the terroist threat levels. Green, blue, yellow, orange, and red. Nevermind, that sounds lame...

(My title vanished... :cry: )

Okay, you posted this on Feb. 24th, so if I get 100 posts by March 03 then I can get a title?
I only have 58 right now but I could really think of some interesting things to say if I needed to. :lol:

Or, if I haven't been around long enough to be grandfathered in, that's okay too :)

Doesn't matter how long you've been here. Just, next Friday, I'm gonna look, and everyone who's at 100 or above is getting a title. After that, no one's getting one until 500. So, post away if you're close.

(But don't be posting one word messages over and over or anything like that.)
