A few notes:

Because these new forums handle rankings and custom titles separately, users with sufficient posts to reach the highest rank will have both a custom title (displayed as a caption above their user name) and that rank displayed.

The number of posts required to reach the next rank (or to gain a custom title) may be changed or adjusted in the future.


This poll will be open for one week, and then close next Tuesday 2006/09/19 at 11:59 pm PDT.

Thanks!

I voted for the last option to give the titles a more skirmish feel.

WotC - making me wish more and more every day for a return to the TSR days. :(
I fought the snark and the snark won. I'm baaaaaaaaaaack!

I kinda liked Sulaco's "arrogant, willing to follow" set ... DDM specific, but cool.

I also don't like the titles like "count" and "prince" ... what of the women on the site?

Voted for the last one, however I think folks with less than 50 votes should be called "Lurker".  That just makes more sense to me.

Well that's not very fair, now, is it? There are options I don't like either, but I'm certainly not going to be a bad sport about it should one of them be chosen.

Wow I posted twice and didn't manage to write a thing.  What I was going to say was - I agree that "underboss" is awful.  I would think from there I should become a Don. or at least a capo.  Guess I just have to post a lot to get to the next level.  Greyhaze you are so much closer to being there than I am.

I actually missed the poll.  I don't tend to look in this area, but when I suddenly became a Goblin, I started wondering why...

I suddenly feel less feminine.  And less clean.  And shorter...
