Under my name it says "Quiet Traveler" I believe.

What is the system for all these "titiles" or rankings? How did I receive this one?

--EDIT-- Oh, should this have gone into the Questions forum? I was thinking that forum was more for GW-related questions..oh well

Based on the amount of posts you have. A staffer or somone might know the exact numbers for each rank.
There's also personalized ranks you can get, which is what most of the staffers ranks probably are.

I'm not sure what the levels are.

I do know that we have 3 levels of recognized "Staff" There's the admins, they really run the place. Us Site Contributors who help develop content for the site, and Beta Testers who I'm assuming are alphas. I'm not sure what the post level designations are for the individual posters.

How about we just start making a list. We can just keep updating it until someone who knows all of them shares that knowledge with us.

0-9 Town Dweller
10-19 Quiet Traveler
20-30+ Citizen
??-?? ???????

Will have to wait tille people make more posts to continue.

Some of the numbers are assumptions, so don't take my word of all of them.

We're sounding more and more like arena.net around here every day.

"You're welcome to post the posting levels if you'd like, provided you do the analyzation and data mining yourself."

I would tell you what the post ranks are, but alas.. even I do not know. They simply seemed to appear one day, as though the board itself had willed them into a quasi-corporeal manifestation .. and now all are subject to its whims on what it chooses to refer to them as based on participation.
That, or THX set the titles. But that's not quite as interesting as the first scenario.

When do we get to 'Boisterous Traveller'? Or... 'Egegious Swine'? I like the sound of that.

I just need to know how many posts I need before it says "Elder Lynx"...

Scrivener · Feb 11, 2005, 05:22 AM // 05:22

Post length req: Seems if you have at least one space in your post, you can get around the requirement by inputting multiple spaces there, that get compacted when the post appears.

Scrivener · Feb 11, 2005, 05:24 AM // 05:24

Like so

But what if we extend that theory and postulate that THX is a quasi-corporeal manifestation?

That would mean he was manifested even before these forums came into being... so not only are they all powerful, they're also capable of precognitive conception. [Insert studio audience gasp here]
