Thus I think it would be a bad idea to keep everything (incl. poster levels) focused only on Civ.

Civ it was and Civ it stays

I think most everyone is used to the poster levels as they are right now anyway. I wouldn't mind seeing them changed to civ3 levels, but it's not really a big deal to me.

Hmmm civ III levels

Almost playable
Bad
Awful
Crappy

Naw.

[Rhothaerill]

Oh yes, I forgot, the Apolyton/Community is a civ 2 forum in disguise.

Not really...........players of all civ games post here. However, amongst some of the more experienced civvers there may be some anti-civ3 vibes.

[Rhothaerill]

I know. But the majority of posters in this forum are Civ2 junkies. There are only a few of us Civ3ers to stand up for ourselves.

If they didn't change Prince/King to Regent/Monarch when Civ3 first came out, they're not going to add more post coutn levels now.

I played civIII and played PTW. (paid for both)

So I'm entitled to my opinion. At least it's based on experience.

And it in no way reflects the opinions of management.

It would give the spammers a new goal to shot for.

Ah, yes, what you really mean is the more experienced players at Apolyton who didn't accept Civ III as the next instalment of the greatest turn based strategy game ever created.

I started with Civ (which I should make me one of the more experienced Civ players) as did many Apolytoner's, but am among the minority at Apolyton who found enjoyment when playing Civ III.

Well you are "just" 10000 posts away from what could be demigod. Markos probably should add this level now

[MichaeltheGreat]

Which is just one reason why I think post count is a joke. Get rid of it.

[Provost Harrison]

Yes, well my post count is completely meaningless compared to how many posts I have actually made...I've had PCRs and then the OT posts not counting. I would hate to think what my real post count is, but probably above anyone else's

Indeed. Once you reach Emperor, there is no major goal to shoot for. You need to more than triple your post count just to get to the next rank.

I'd easily be an Emperor if not for that hefty PCR and the fact that 90% of my posting is done in the OT.
