Eh, yeah, but at the same time the "rank" is the least important part of your complete title. It's just words and has little play in your prefix and title bar color.
hey nice signature

Thanks.

Eh, yeah, but at the same time the "rank" is the least important part of your complete title. It's just words and has little play in your prefix and title bar color.

But the prefix is based pretty much entirely on post count too.

I wouldn't mind just some more Halo ones tbh, maybe mixtures of other ranks to form a unique rank.

e.g. "Contested" for someone who isn't a new member (>250 posts?) but has no upvote/downvote rank (differentiates between newbies, members, and members that have been here for aaaaages).

"King of the Hill" if you're on the front page of postcount and Heroic+ ("good" members), while "King of the Shitpile" if you are on the frontpage but have a downvote rank (excessive shitposters, spammers, that sorta thing).

"Flammable" for those who have a high ratio of hot threads.

"Circlejerk supreme" for those with a high like-to-post ratio

"Golden /Not-so-Golden Oldie" Legendary+/ (the downvote ranks-) members who have been here for X amount of years. Obviously no-one would have it now as we haven't even been here for a year.

If we're doing game ranks, I generally oppose pokemon or military ranks... fictional military ones are fine, e.g. Elite's ranks or the later Halo Reach ranks like Nova and Inheritor, or Brotherhood of Steel ranks like Initiate, Scribe, Knight, Paladin, etc...

Then why do we need 3000 posts for Legendary?

Just because that's one of the factors, that doesn't mean it's entirely based on post count.

Doesn't matter - It still means your prefix is decided by your post count. i.e If you don't have x# of posts, you can't have this prefix.

And anyway, I thought Cheat was making the upvoting system redundant.

I don't see your point. What you said earlier is still false.
Your rank is determined by your overall activity, and posting is part of being active.

The original complaint was that achieving higher ranks with more posts leads to spamming. I don't see how post count only being a part of your prefix makes a difference.

It doesn't have to be spam that gets you there. I mean I'm not really a spammer, I just have no life. lol

Still, it doesn't take away from the fact that posts are one of the indicators of how active you are overall.

It's one of the ceilings you need to reach to qualify, but your post count has little to do with it once you have 3000 posts.

It's your behavior and activity at that point.
