Forum ranking

It's a generic title given to people based on their post count. Unsure as to how many posts gives each title, but yeah. That's what it's based on. However, some people are able to make custom titles. Like this who have donated, or moderators and admins.

 

It's the new post counts. Use it to brag and claim superiority over the inferior younger members.

 

Or to show what a spammer you are.

 

But how do I know how many posts result in what rank? What if I'm bragging and it turns out my rank means that I am a lazy poopoo who doesn't post anything?

 

Mystery is the flavor of life. Embrace it.

 

If you click the Donate button at the top, you can view the different tiers of donations and how much you need for them.

 

I believe title comes from trophy points, not plain post count. Mine switched to Vanguard just after getting last one.

 

I didn't know anyone paid attention to the forum ranks. They were thrown in when the forum first made and were meant to be revamped later, but got overlooked.

To set the record straight, forum ranks aren't determined by post count at all. It's your trophy points - points you get from unlocking trophies/achievements. You can view all the possible trophies here.

If there was interest, I'd look into revamping the entire forum rank names and trophy-system so that they're actually meaningful and worth earning/having. As is, it just exists because it exists. Donor Ranks were the primary focus, and as of yet, the donor rewards are so little that they're not posted anywhere.

The rank/banner and the ability to set your own title is currently the only reward, along with the wonderful feeling of generosity.

 

Ah, a nice little overhaul. Gotta love a fresh little update to keep everything spiffy. I'm all for this.

 

+1 from me. I don't see any problems with this as it's just a bonus without many to none downsides.
