Who thinks they will ever make Deity?

Darkcloud you always seem to abuse the wink when i see your posts is that lazy eye or something?

I think at first post count is part of the temptation of PBEM but after a while you only post turns when you can be bothered, then again i see people post every turn maybe im just lazy.

Ah, in response to the original sentiment of this thread:
Not me. Not even gonna try. I just want to get the 500 necessary to replace this stupid camel image with something cool. And I want to avoid spamming if at all possible. I've only been here about a month and a half and I'm already kinda scared of Ming.

[Nikolai]

I don't think you should be afraid! As long as you are nice, he is so too. He is strict, but fair.

[Elok]

Yeah, I know, it's just that his avatar looks royally POed no matter how he's feeling, I suppose. Or something. Anyway, a healthy respect for admin folk is always a good thing.

I've said it once and I'll say it again, how can you not expect people to spam when you have a title system and a custom avatar after a certain post limit? It's the biggest incentive to spam so if the admins and mods would really want to solve the spam problem, perhaps they should think a little if the Apolyton rank and avatar system are indeed the optimal ones.

[DrSpike]

The title system is one that most posters would want........sure it can create an incentive for spam, but if the system is inherently desirable it is a poor remedy to that problem to just drop the system. Far better is to regulate........with moderators.........hmm that sounds familiar.

Well, I hate to make myself a target once the mods finally close this thread and hand out PCRs to the people who posted here, but I must say this: King sucks. However, I love Emporer. I wouldn't mind getting stuck there, most people who know me personally already say I remind them of Napoleon anyways, without the Italian or the French or the Empire.

(please don't hurt me when you give us our PCRs Mr. Ming)

Then you should ask Ming or other mod to keep your Prince status, that way you're never gona get this disgusting King title ... Personally I also would like to have some other... but clearly not a prince title.. that would be just too.. hmmm.. well, you know what they say about Princes
So I hope to become Emperor soon, at least at end of the year (yeeeaaaah. right! )

With the fact that Ming has posted here 7 times and not closed it yet I'd be surprised if it isn't just closed when it hits 500 if it continues to stay semi on topic.



Mahap a move to the OT forums be requested if everybody is this worried about ?

Moving on to the King rank sucking... I much prefer it over Prince for just the fact that I am most certainly not a Princly fellow IRL, IMHO.

IMHO the only good thing about Prince is the fact that you get your custom avatar within it . Went from SMAC Pirates to a Borg cube to my current one which actually represented me a long time ago in a chat room far far away.

But really, why does King suck? Sure it's lower than Emporer, but other than that, why? It's not like you get to do anything extra special as an Emporer that you couldn't do as a King, I suppose I just don't understand.

The Admins (probably) don't really care that much about spam, for the same reason they don't mind having lots of disabled DLs. It makes the site statistics look better.

I've said it before, and will say it again:

For an anti-monarchy guy like me, all royal titles sucks big time...

That's why you have to rush to deity

[Adagio]

I do all I can

[FlameFlash]

Okay, so there's anti-monarchy as a reason for ADG... but what about you mrmitchell?

[Alex]

I don't really mind about the title. They could call me whatever they wanted to, if they chose to call me a king, who am I to complain about it?
