|
|
The Ministry (which is the collective noun for Avengers forum administrators) have created ranks for this forum.
The basic principal is that they remain secret until someone reaches enough post to reveal the new rank. But here is a list for the ranks that are already achieved by members.
Number of posts and rank title
0 - Conspiracy of Silence
1 - The White Dwarf
10 - Nutshell
50 - Thingumajig
100 - Little Wonder
250 - Have Fingers... Will Type!
500 - Winged Avenger
750 - How to Succeed... at Posting!
1000 - Epic
1250 - The Big Thinker
1500 - The Bird Who Wrote Too Much
2000 - Mission... Highly Improbable!
2500 - A Touch of Brimstone
5000 - Will be revealed when the first member reaches 5000
5000 is currently the last rank, but this could always change.

Perhaps that "Joker" would be appropriate as another rank ?  _________________ I've been blessed by The Avengers! |

Oi! Stop posting suggestions just so you can get to the next rank faster!
All the ranks up to 3000 posts are set. If anyone ends up going beyond that, we'll need to get our thinking caps on then... But for now, let's concentrate on talking about The Avengers!  _________________ Alan

Well, it's going to be a long time until anyone reaches 3,000 posts. On another forum I have about 8,000 posts. _________________ Allen |

I find rankings childish and even insulting.
We're not in a contest here.
I've found rankings can make some people post rubbish just to have a post counted. 'Just 'cause. _________________ I didn't sell out. I bought in.
I made you a Soul but I ate it.

I don't think we'll have too much of a problem here. Every one has conducted themselves very well on this forum as well as the old. The ranks are a just for fun thing and may just brighten up someone's day. _________________ Every parent has a favorite child. Usually the child belongs to the neighbors. |

I agree, Kim! The ranks are just for fun and not to be taken too seriously.  _________________ Allen |

I wouldn't be too sure, a girl at the Spooks forum I frequent has managed to rack up 34,103 in just 22 months. |

Sounds like the type of Forum that's littered with word games, etc. _________________

Perhaps it would be better if it was.
Dozens and dozens of character obsession threads, with 100s of pages - many of them about Harry and Ruth (Peter Firth & Nicola Walker) and 511 pages discussing fan fics.
The forum seems to be about 95% female. |
