Rankings...

[Karlos]

I was just thinking; as most of the veterans of the site are in the 4000+ posts bracket or higher, is it possible to have some new ranks above Guru Meditator to aspire to?

Not really an important 'feature', I admit, but...

The rankings are listed in the about us section, so if you guys want to get together and make new suggestions, or raise the limits or whatever, you guys decide and lemme know...

Must...Post....More.....
Tchaa !! You have far too much spare time Karlos  :lol:

[ChaosLord]

NEW RANKING:

Chatmonger!

or Postmonger

[X-ray]

Here are a few I thought of:

Not a Lurker
Oratory Oracle
Limelight Magnet
Purveyor of Opinion
Mechanised Parrot
Bandwidth Bandit


and I reckon that Guru Meditator should be the highest rank, perhaps 15,000 posts.

The truly worrying thing is that I post here *far* less frequently than I used to, what with being permanently busy with work and stuff these days...

-edit-

Can you imagine if KennyR had never left? I bet his post count would have been close to wrapping whatever datatype is used in the schema back to zero :roflmao:

@X-Ray

Nice suggestions, but I reckon "Clockwork Parrot" has a better ring to it than "Mechanised Parrot".

Of course, it would be nifty if we could think of some more amiga related rankings :-D

Some silly examples:

RTG - Relatavistic TonGue
AGA - Always Gabbering Away
ECS - Ever Consider Silence?
OCS - Opinions Ceaslessly Spouted

[ChaosLord]

Anyone who writes over 4096 posts should automatically receive the tile of High Noise to Signal Ratio
 :-)

[ChaosLord]

RTG: Really Talkative Guy/Girl
ECS: Extreme Chat Slut
OCS: Overly Chatty Scener

At 4000 posts you should become an Amiga 4000

Or at least get one. :-D

@ Karlos

You are right...Clockwork Parrot poons Mechanised Parrot.
Why didn't I think of it?

Some more:

Keyboard Massager
I-Type
Virtual Stenographer
Professional Poster
Web Property or Online Furniture

Just FYI, here's the current list.  Please let me know how you guys want to change it.

Although by Sir Karlos' definition I am by far a veteran, I personally would like to stay with my current rank for all eternity, or for as long as a.org is online at least :-D Better keep my posts to a minimum.
