Nothing to aspire to...

Well, that's not something really hard to create, it's easily modifiable.

But look at it on a newbie's PoV : what all these colors mean? What's the difference, say, between pinks and cyan? Who is staff and who is not?

You know you're right, they aren't really here for the forum after all, it is the shiny brass ring of the bt trade & invite sections they are here for in virtually every case, and we can't go and overload their fuzzy little brains with such trivia as recognising contributions to the board from longstanding members. I mean just imagine the embolisms caused by the overload of information....

They don't care about the information in 99% of the case anyway and most won't be around long enough to contribute anything vaguely interesting. For those that are interested then learning that users are recognised for different post counts may be seen as an achievement, for me I tend to agree that just having the one veteran class at 5,000 posts seems arbitrary and does not recognise the contribution of the really prodigious spambots we have on this forum.

Thanks for the searing. I agree with you.

When I started posting, the gray stars meant something. Now they've been noobified

How about (in order, I think)...

Pioneer 15k

Forum God 30k

This would be fine though we need 5k in there.

Doesn't have to be a different color for all, grey stars could remain and only the title would change.

Wede simply need stars with titles and will implement it...

What's the class where you've passed 30k a couple of times but had a lot of your more memorable posts either deleted as spam or by database error?
Also personally if it's OK with you I'd rather just have a one time lump sum cash payout as I'm pretty sure being referred to as a god of anything is Idolatry and breaking my second commandment .

How about we just move Veteran to the 5000 posts mark as it was before and be done with it? The way the forum is these days, even that takes a long time to reach.

Adding more ranks for 10000 posts and above would be senseless in my opinion. They would only affect those who have been on this site for at least some years, and I don't think they would even care about see any need for new stars.

Having ranks added is simple really. Its much simpler than adding groups is. If theyre also the same color not much concern there. If they want to create stars its fine...

You made 10k in your first 3 weeks. Don't trample the dreams of others.

I have it on good authority that chalice still only posts on the site in the slim hope of one day having the title "forum god" attached to his account so shows what you know.

I think if you have any dignity at all you should resign your Mod position for being so out of touch with things.

[chalice]

Yeah, I'm all about the custom title. A forum is a pretty shite thing to be a god of, innit. That's like being the god of spastics. You wouldn't know if you were getting hosannah'd or heresy'd with all their mauling about and what not.

Just 'God'll do to be going on with.
