New Post Count Levels

[Ben Kenobi]

I think Ming should be a moving level based on Ming's postcount than it wuld be a chase for that title, which noone would be able to win as Ming would keep hitting everyone that got close with the PCR rod.

I'm more interested in what happens when Ming stops being Ming.

Perhaps if someone were to pass Ming, they would gain all the abilities possessed by the current Ming, as well as the username.

On Topic = Settler/Chieftain/etc.---/Deity
Off Topic = Newb/Semi-noob/etc.---/Loudmouth

I remember suggesting this a while back. IIRC, the consensus was basically "why bother".

[Skanky Burns]

Settler: 31059
Chieftain: 1595
Warlord: 856 (including one person with 99 posts)
Prince: 578
Kings: 345
Emperors: 130
Deities: 7

Emperors above 5000 posts: 36 (94 lower ranked Emperors)
Emperors above 5500 posts: 20 (110 lower ranked Emperors)
Emperors above 6000 posts: 13 (117 lower ranked Emperors)

In case an Owner is considering adding an additional rank between Emperor and Deity.

/me checks to see which bracket he is in.

One of the lowest ranked emperors

That would be New Improved Ming, now even better at removing nasty spam stains. He leaves your forums brighter and whiter.

I doubt that dan/mark will expend the time- but it is worth wondering... strange that Sid has achieved super-deity status in his games

Due to vBulletin configuration limitations, additional levels of post count status cannot be implemented. The current configurations can be modified, though.

However, as has already been pointed out in this thread, doing so is not reasonably called for at this time.

Its not like the current levels aren't adequate for all but the most prolific posters. Ming, of course, blows all curves

There's an easy solution to that.

Give Ming a PCR!!!

Nice Freudian slip.

For the British posters here, I'd like to suggest that this idea mings. For all others, then you can look that up.

[DrSpike]

Hehe, they already know............every British poster has made that comment at one time or another.

[Ecthy]

I'm lower ranked because I'm always PCRed down from 5000+... I used to have like 5500, but someone didn't like that

Heresy.

There can be only one.
