They sound nice cut out the spam in the forums sound good to me SMILEY<img src=

" /> when will these kick in?

**Riac.**

I like that it is time based and not spam based

heres a question though, how will you be treating the avatar thing ? i believe currently you have to be on the forums for over a year in order to gain the rights to having one, does it still stand in this system ~?

Oooh now there's a turn around, based more off account time than posts. I think that works better as then spamming the boards doesn't have any indication of how long you've been around for.

I'll get back to you on higher ranks though, could start getting a little bit silly though if you're not careful

I'm assuming that the custom ranks will be ones (Like Femme Fetale) which will involve players doing something slightly different to get hold of them?

Not negotiable.

Oh, a lot more time heavy than post heavy... interesting... and debateable ^_^

One problem with that is people who play for say a week, quit, then come back months later will be able to achieve the highest ranks despite their limited overall contribution.

Once it is set in stone, it will take me a few days to get them set up.

All I can say is would 'Veteran Hacker - 600 days + 25 posts' get confused with 'Liasion' or are you changing those too? Everything else is dandy

Awwww... =P

I wonder if anyone who doesn't have more than 100 posts after two years even care about getting a higher rank.

Special Custom Ranks will always overwrite the general earned ranks.
