Post count ranks

[Zwangzug]

Still a definite work in progress, but I've got it more or less complete to the highest rank achieved to date:

0-1 Civilian
2-5 Political Columnist
6-10 Civil Servant
11-25 Lobbyist
26-40 Secretary
41-65 Bureaucrat
66-99 Attaché
100-200 Spokesperson (cutoff approximate)
201-350 Envoy
351-500 - Chargé d'Affaires
501-1000 - Diplomat
1001-2000 Ambassador
2001-3500 Minister
3501-? Senator

The cutoffs for the two or three highest ranks are educated guesses. Of course, if someone important wanted to post an official version and save us the trouble, that'd be fine too.

Very interesting. I'd assume some sort of custom title will come into play with a certain amount of posts?

[North Wiedna]

I like the sound of Attache!

Think I'll stop posting at 99 posts.

Just kidding, this is helpful, and I bet many people will soon be able to edit their member titles.

[Unibot]

Well done, I'll keep my eyes peeled for high post counts for ye !

Think I'll stop posting at 99 posts.

Coincedentally this is my 99th post on the Beta, and I feel like I'm not done yet.

At the moment, there's nothing planned for enabling users to set their own rank titles, however since I can edit the ranks, I'm very seriously considering reviving the old weekly "one of a kind" rank title raffles we did on the pre-Jolt forums.

Ooooh. Interesting. Disappointing that we won't get custom titles though.

100-? Spokesperson[/table]
*where ? ≥ 175

I'll do my best to find out the next one

[Peisandros]

I think custom after something like 5,000 or 10,000 is a pretty good idea.. Something to strive to!

Eh, keep an eye on my post count if you want to find the next one.

I think we're equal here

But if you want to find the next one: Find Yootopia

Exactly why we don't intend to do it. We get enough spam as is without rewarding it.

He's at 175 with no change from Spokesperson

Don't worry, some of us will get there soon enough without needing a reward

Still a definite work in progress, but I think I've got it complete to the highest rank achieved to date (May 11) by non-moderators:

0-1 Civilian
2-5 Political Columnist
6-10 Civil Servant
11-25 Lobbyist
26-40 Secretary
41-65 Bureaucrat
66-99 Attaché
100-? Spokesperson
*where ? ≥ 175

Of course, if someone important wanted to post an official version and save us the trouble, that'd be fine too.

Is the ranking random, or is there perhaps a kind of mathematical row, or geometric progression, or Fibonacci sequense behind it?

[The Wolf Hold]

If only Jolt Posts carried over......oh well

Yootopia just passed 200, he's an "Envoy" now.

[The Blaatschapen]

An envoy, I like this one more, I think I'll stay in this one for some time

Instead of custom titles after a certain post count, how about making them based off age/population like the custom nation titles?

As [violet] would probably say, that's a non-trivial amount of work to do, I suspect.

For the newbies...and oh how I missed this one..

[Ardchoille]

CG, you do realise that by posting that link, you have introduced our newcomers to the evil practices of quote pyramids, multicoloured text and VERY VERY LARGE TYPE?

Thankfully, this board won't take quote pyramids, but the rest ... Well, if there's an outbreak, I blame you. Entirely.

No, no, I'm not angry, I'm just very, very disappointed ...

<_<

>_>

... (hey, that always works on my kids.)

BTW, dragging myself back on topic: I'm waiting, as postcounts mount higher, to see if the admins took up my suggestion, "blogger". Live in fear.

[Crazy girl]

Oooh, the old old forums...where the only times you had a decent chance of visiting without it crashing was when the americans were sleeping...

Maybe add one that says "forum addict"

[Reploid Productions]

I should probably restart the weekly one-of-a-kind title contest again sometime soon XD
