Error in Conquerer/Forum As requirements and/or graphics
« on: November 30, 2004, 03:49:43 pm »
I was checking the requirements for the conquerer rank, wondering how in the kableep I skipped right past it.  Well, even though it\'s four yellow stars, it requires 100 posts, while the 5 yellow star (Forum As) requires only 75.  Is it just me or does this seem a tad...off?  ;)

I\'m sure this has been brought up before. Did you first?

I searched for it, but I really suck at tracking things down that way, so I may have missed it.  Sorry, if that\'s the case.

It\'s okie. Just I think it has been pointed out before, and nothing was done about it. You could always try catching Vengeance or Acraig in IRC, they\'ll fix it if they have a few minutes to spare. :)

We didn\'t write the board software so contact http://www.woltlab.de/ if there is a bug in their free burning board software.

Edit: Actually can fix here I think.  Should be ok now

Actually I don\'t think they support the build of this board anymore since they are pushing BB Lite. But I was going to say you can change the images that are linked in the Admin panel but I guess you found that ;)

Probably want to set ForumAs to 4 star and Conquerer to 5 stars though.

Okay...umm...the graphics were changed, but now Forum As has the same amount of stars as Forum User. o.o

How about coming up with some more meaningful rank names and graphics to go with them?  Like little axes or mugs or some other PS related material.

Nice idea, acraig. :) I can\'t think of any rank names... ooh, wait, developer rank could be Octarchs, and WTB/other specials could be Vigesimi. What would \'Moderator\' be?...

Hmm? How about make moderator enforcer?

Just kidding but guard or guardian sound good and still describe your function fairly well.

not a bad idea...

I think you could put more ranks too. On the forum of my guild I started to do that but it\'s not as easy as we can first think... You need time to do that... on my forum I\'ve just the rank until 200... (I\'m pretty busy and cant continue for now).

So if you want you could take mine to begin but I\'ve not created these one but just use the gimp to transform the images : I dont think there\'s still a link between the orginal pictures and the new ones but I want to warn you.

and I start with the mug and the other weapons of ps... if you  need call me...

If we do that, then there will be confusion if the positions are taken by different people in the game and in the forums, even without players being able to take these positions.

no problem Seytra : there is a rank list and then if you really are afraid about it forum admin could ad a rank near the name of the rank.
for example :

2-5 : conquer

Sounds interesting.  Maybe you could use a smallshot of a tria, then octa, etc for the lil symbol thingamajigs.  I\'d suggest crystals but those are about to get outdated, if I\'m not mistaken.
