    It's the lowest of the low. It goes up once you've contributed with 100 replied posts or postings of your own.

    Highest rank is Sorcerer I'm sure and you have to post I think over 1,000 messages to get the highest rank, which gives you full access to the message boards, ability to edit them, maintain them. It's like a giant community!

    Actually, why don't you read carefull what your moderator writes?

    It was 21 for the apprentice a while ago, now it is 51.

    To become a Wisard you have to become an assistant moderator - none yet, as Taluntain writes. Btw, Taluntain, I think that Sylvus deserves to be promoted to Wisard - there is his line to every topic: "...read my online solution on this site..."

    And, finally there is going to be only one SORCERER.....

    [​IMG] Firstly, the whole ranking sytem is explained here: http://www.sorcerers.net/ubb/Forum7/HTML/000027.html in case someone still hasn't seen it yet.
    Secondly, I will give all my staff members the Wizard status if they show any interest in the boards. Of course Sylvus deserves it since he's been helping out here a lot, plus he made the great walkthru we have on the site.
    Nazgul is a lot less active here, but he's one of the news posters that I can rely on (at least till now, he's been MIA for the last week or so).
    There are some more, but they don't visit the boards so there's no sense in giving them any higher ranks here. Of course if they start making an effort here too, they'll get it too eventually.
    This is just for info so that everyone'll know what's going on.

    P.S.
    You can make 10.000 posts and you still won't be a Sorcerer. There can be only one. :cool:

    I wouldn't recommend trying. It's hard to get all the bloody stains out of my robe as it is, I don't need any extra.
