    [​IMG] Hey Taluntain, how does the ranking system work? I've got more posts then Lord Bane and he is now an apprentice while I'm a stinking acolyte. :confused:

    [​IMG] Ok this is how it goes:

    0-50 posts -> Acolyte
    51 and more posts -> Apprentice
    An assistant moderator (none yet) -> Wizard
    Owner & main moderator - Sorcerer

    And in case you were wondering, there'll always be just one Sorcerer. :p

    It was 21 and more for Apprentice a while back, but I changed it to 51 now (make it a bit more challenging).
    So the explanation why some got Apprentice before that is, well, they made those 20 posts before I changed the limit and their status remained...
    All new people will have to play by the new rules though. ;)

    Hey, d'ya think that when BG2 comes out Taluntain is gonna put kits onto the system like in the games? You know, 100 or more posts on Planescape Torment = Cavalier.

    Or something.

    why don't u call the acylytes peons or something like that.. what u do is have it like a village, the lowest could be "village idiot", and the second could be "town drunk", and then we could call the moderators "sheriffs" (yea baby, diricting traffic), and the head guy " guy with three cornered hat" :)

    No matter what status I would be given for number of post's I think I'd always be known as the "site drunk". Or at least I hope so....(lol)
