    I'm nearly an apprentice. I think the creators of this site are being very selfish making themselves th only ones able to rise higher than that status, you guys are meanies.

    [​IMG] I've asked for more grades before, but Taluntain said something about much trouble. Magician would have been cool. And mage, archmage etc.

    Yeah. I agree. Sorcerer should work his butt off to provide more levels for those who participate on the message boards.

    [​IMG] i think its good the way it is now. keeps people from posting bullshit just to rack up posts. i have seen this happen on other boards, it just gets too sloppy when you can achieve higher grades via posts. as i have always said, its not the quantity of the posts, but the quality.

    Yeah, but i think that here, most of the people post good replies. Its rare that you see really shitty messages.

    [​IMG] true true. i guess the fact that you have to register to post here helps. if you take the time to register, you must have something worth while to share with the rest of us. but i still like it the way it is.

    [​IMG] Yeah! What's the matter with that Sorcerer guy? Instead of concentrating on content and providing a chatroom, he should be reprogramming UBB to provide more levels for his poster ingrates!

    YEAH! ;)

    What surprises me is that people actually cares about those grades. Why have grades at all? Thank <put in deitys name here> the board doesn't have those jpegs I've seen elsewhere.

    It's nice to know who the moderator is but that is as far as my interest goes.

    LOL!

    Those animated, one page sigs are the death of any message board. Once the posts start happening, everyone wants a sig, then all the sigs do is slow the board and the server down, having to connect to all the external sites that the sig is being pointed to just to display.

    Well I'm glad most of you see it my way. ;)

    I only have 4 levels to use in UBB, and two of them must are for moderators/admins so that leaves you with 2, tops. So it's only junior member/full member option.
    But ok, since you all seem to think it's too easy to achieve Apprentice status, I'll rise the amount of posts you need to reach it.
    ***Poof!***

    It's 100 posts now. Now, now, don't thank me. You asked for it! ;)

    Damn! It would've been classic if you had raised the bar before the poster of this topic (Silver Dragon) had passed the 50 mark!

    So close... He had only 51 at this time... ;)

    And how come you only have 4 levels. Why can't you get more.

    [​IMG] Because that's how the version of UBB (the message boards software you're posting on) is written that way.

    You know the 'ol american saying don't fix it if it ain't broken?
    It applies nicely here.
