Too bad, I thought we had something going here!

DARTH KRAFTER, check out the suggestions above. What do you think?

Good suggestion with the seven levels above, cooresponding with the game's difficulty.

One question: The seventh level, what is "MP"??

Just some personal taste, I always prefer the final "level" to be Grand Master.

MP = Multiplayer in this case. Haven't tried it myself yet. My butt is too sensitive to be kicked around by all the sharks here at Apolyton

Check out the other "junior"-thread! They might be able to change things after all. No more "junior"?

By using "[ i ]" and "[ /i ]" (without the spaces and quotes), you can italicize words and by using "[ b ]" and "[ /b ]" (again without the spaces or quotes) you can get bold type.
By combining both, you get this

"But the term "junior" is somewhat derogatory. I would prefer (in the spirit of civ) that a new member be a "member" and after a certain number of posts become a "veteran member". Follows the Civ theme, no?"

This would be great for someone like myself who doesn't like to see "jr" before my handle but doesn't do much more than read on these forums and thus will likely be "jr" for quite a while longer.

Sieve too: In life, acceptance of a derogatory (sp?) nickname will likely make people forget it, in civ it stays with you (until you post enough for it to go away).

And finally,
Sir David: Me, a serious poster? Although I have referred to one or more of my posts as being serious, I have posted approximately a dozen times in the last two months. Despite checking the board on a fairly regular basis (What else am I supposed to do at work, my job? yeah right ) I don't think that I could be generalized as anything be it serious or anything else. (Actually I could be generalized as being Canadian, that I am ).

To any other junior members out there, resist the urge to do as Krushala did, for maturity (by maturity I mean the elimination of the "jr") gained through any method other than the posting of threads is hollow and therefore meaningless.

2. When I posted my first messages here, I was pretty angry that I was named a junior civer. I was a junior poster, or a junior multiplayer, but I was already playing civ for 5 years at that moment !! AND FOR SURE NOT A JUNIOR CIVER !!!!!

just to clear that up

Change the titles to poster and regular poster. And then move the number of posts you have to become regular poster up to 250. Then you can easily recognize the people that don't post much, and the people that do post much.

That's good to sort out who you should take serious and who not

I'm going to count them now ! I come here at a daily base argh

Change that 250 posts back to 100 :-P

Therefor there's something wrong with that 105 posts. Maybe I should post some blanc messages as well

"If you talk rubbish then you'll be ignored!"

Unfortunately not. Go to the off-topic forum and check out some posters' ignorance, intolerance and stupidity. True, more sensible people try to argue with them but that's a hopeless crusade I will not join.

I spend too much time here as it is.
