Post by: MetroidHunter on June 21, 2006, 09:07:18 PM
Yeah, I'd also like to know what the levels are. I can imagine 1000 being "Free Wii Game".

As the community grows and more people post more and there are more topics to post in you'll probably have to raise the post levels. But I like them. Can't wait until I get 1000. lol

You're definately going to have to raise or create more ranks with Digg's article to us. So many people are going to join and try to win the contest.

we can always cross that bridge later ;)

maybe just 1 or 2 more though in between 100 and 1000 would be nice

Friggin awesome...I'm a wii freak with a new signature


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: Marink on June 23, 2006, 11:24:29 AM
I agree with Spawn. Going from 100 to 1000 is a huge jump, don't you think?


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 25, 2006, 09:24:44 PM
Yeah maybe add something for 500. I dunno it won't matter once the site grows, though they'll have to be expanded. I'd just do it when you expand them.


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: spawn on June 25, 2006, 09:28:43 PM
i normally have 10, 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000

lmao, i want 10k posts but i want 750 also :(


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: meridianblade on June 26, 2006, 12:17:55 AM
lol, do you have any suggestions or tweaks for the ranks?


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: spawn on June 26, 2006, 12:32:55 AM
give me a special rank:?:  ;)  :lol:  :twisted:

i think they're good


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: Marink on June 26, 2006, 04:25:21 AM
I think 250 posts should be "Obsessed with Wii".  :P


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 26, 2006, 11:10:34 AM
I like the ranks. They're good for now. But obviously the best rank you could ever hope to obtain is Official Wii-Volution Avatar Designer.  :wink:


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: Marink on June 26, 2006, 11:34:45 AM
LMAO, I can't believe that my 250 post title has just been accepted. :P

Oh and MetroidHunter, someday I will come up with a better title than yours!!!

Someday... :twisted:


Title: Re: Ranks

congrats :)


Title: Re: Ranks

No seriously, I actually can't believe it. I only really meant it as a joke, to be honest. :P


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 26, 2006, 02:53:05 PM
I thought it was pretty good. I look forward to seeing you try and come up with a better rank Marink.  :lol:


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: Marink on June 26, 2006, 03:02:29 PM
Heh, perhaps my title could be something like "Rank maker-upper". :P

The guy that creates the ranks. :P


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: meridianblade on June 26, 2006, 11:51:43 PM
You have to come up with more interesting ranks to get that title. ;-)


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 27, 2006, 12:16:10 AM
Yeah and rank maker-upper won't cut it. :P


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: spawn on June 27, 2006, 12:26:56 AM
how bout 'Smash Brother'?


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: BubyDudy on June 27, 2006, 09:00:28 AM
I don't know what you guys think but my "Propagandist" title is the best. I feel like being Hitler's right hand! :D

I said like that. :P

Obviously I wouldn't want that as a title, but I will continue to think of more for the site anyway(so I can get my very own title). :wink:

Post by: MetroidHunter on June 27, 2006, 12:53:59 PM
MD do we ever get to a point where we have enough posts or been here long enough to make a custom title? I think that would be a good reward for people who have stayed around for a certain amount of time and posted a certain amount. Maybe like been registered for one year and has 1,000 posts? Just a way to give back to people who have been loyal to the forum?

Just a thought.

Yea sure, id just have to manually change it, but great idea.


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: spawn on June 27, 2006, 09:26:50 PM
get the custom title mod :)


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 28, 2006, 12:31:41 AM
I was thinking maybe you could just set it and it would allow us to change them ourselves when we reached that level. I know at another forum that's how it works, that the admins dont have to change it themselves. It would probably be a lot of trouble for you to change them for each person, and they would probably want to change them several times.


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: Marink on June 28, 2006, 11:40:15 AM
Actually, I think a mod changing the titles would be better. They would be just as unique, and it would mean that each member's title would be based on what they are like as a Wii-volution member.

Plus, if we got to choose then it would ruin the element of surprise. :P


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 28, 2006, 11:50:52 AM
Well I mean I'm talking if and when there are 1000 members or more, it will be a lot of work for MD to change everyone's custom title whenever they wanted that is after reaching the requirements. I just figured you could set the requirement and then we would be able to so that way MD doesn't have to spend his time changing people's titles.


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: Marink on June 28, 2006, 11:57:48 AM
Then he should be able to change the titles whenever he feels like doing it. I have witnessed this being done on another site, and it worked pretty well, to say the least.


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: meridianblade on June 28, 2006, 09:31:12 PM
I'll look into whatever mod for the forum spawn was talking about and see which method will work best.

theres one for ya :)


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 29, 2006, 11:11:02 PM
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what I was talking about. Where it intergrates into our profiles and allows us to change our titles once we've reached a certain amount of requirements.


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: meridianblade on June 29, 2006, 11:34:16 PM
At first glance I didnt see that it was compatible with this version of phpbb, but there's probably a port of some type for the php-nuke/nuke-evo version. Its something I'll look into for you guys. 500 sounds like a good number to allow title changes :-)


Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on June 30, 2006, 12:58:23 AM
Yeah, for now anyway. I'd say add a requirement for time though. Like must have been registered for 6 months. Then you can change it as the site grows and make it one year and 1000 posts.

Title: Re: Ranks
Post by: MetroidHunter on August 25, 2006, 10:21:58 PM
I dunno, I'm not very good at coming up with names. I think the ones we have now are pretty good.

That has got something to do with the Wii. What was that thing called that ended in "Brawl", and is for the Nintendo Wii, again? :?
