I'd suggest using the professions. Have a vote to figure out what kind of order they should go in.

Squib (trash collectors)
Gamorrean
Spice Miner (slave normally)
Nerf Herder
Lose the Gungan, no one really likes them anyway. ;)

Also, I like Juz's idea.
Of course we would have to figure out where the different professions would rank.

Well, it will never be accepted.
It wasn't accepted the first time I suggested it many, many months ago, and it won't be accepted now.
I knew that before I posted it even back then. ;)

Okay, so if this is the case, then we should simply divide it up evenly, or at least relatively close. Imps get 7, Rebs get seven and Indies get 6. Now take them and stagger them down the list.
For example:
Academy Cadet
Rebel Sympathizer
Moisture Farmer
Storm Trooper
Rebel Soldier
Droid Technician
Imperial Lieutenant
Y-Wing Pilot
Blaster Technician
Imperial Captain
A-Wing Pilot
Casino Owner
Imperial Admiral
X-Wing Pilot
Bounty Hunter
Imperial Moff
Rogue Leader
Hutt
Grand Moff
Jedi Master

Or something along those lines.

well i like your idea DS.
but before i go over and vote for thsi one... lets but our 25 profs in a line and decide wich ones we like the best. I think its not a difficult descission to put the 6 elite profs at the top.

We have 17 spots to fill with ranks. i think it is fair to say we put the 6 Elite profs at the top... not as first .. as last. so you have to pick out 11 profs that you like best.

These are the normal profs.
Architect
Armorer
Chef
Combat Engineer
Combat Medic
Commando
Creature Handler
Doctor
Droid Engineer
Entertainer
Gunsmith
Image Designer
Marksman
Melee Weaponsmith
Ranger
Scout
Smuggler
Squad Leader
Teras Kasi Artist

Now you have to choose in wich way we are gonna put these profs at the top.
These are the elite profs
Bounty Hunter
Farmer
Jedi
Merchant
Miner
Politician

Humorously enough, with a little tweaking, the titles are almost perfect in alphabetical order.

Now for the Elites:
Farmer
Miner
Merchant
Bounty Hunter
Politician
Jedi

Those are the ones I picked, in no particular order.

Nevermind, I misunderstood.
Here are my choices then:
Armorer
Combat Engineer
Combat Medic
Commando
Doctor
Gunsmith
Marksman
Melee Weaponsmith
Smuggler
Squad Leader
Teras Kasi Artist

In no particular order though. Don't really care, I'm almost half way to my 1000 posts after only three weeks. ;)
Very little spam either, at least i think.

thatґs just because this forum is not like the swamp or Aresen with a lot of people that always check that, I like the idea of personal ranks like in Aresen, and since wraithy likes the idea I said about using SWG professions it will be better like Aresen cause they donґt change the ranks like usually :p

I dunno which ranks Iґd like to select, so i just let the boys decide that :p

True, Devil Doll. Let the boys bicker and fight, while I crawl towards the 1000th post and my custom title! Bwahahahahaha!

itґs supposed that now with this credit stuff we need to have 1500 credits to change our title isnґt it??

I have a year and a half and i still can have 1000 posts, i need to do the same Wraithy did :p

Why not people the option to chose what their title is from the Profession list. After you hit 750 you get to choose from the Elites and after 1500 you get a custom title.

I have a feeling that would be about the biggest pain in the arse to code. I doubt anyone would want to put that much effort into it. Not that it's not a cool idea Jek.

Yes, he comes with a good suggestion, but the thing is, that would mean that the entire Lucas Forum would have to change aswell, since we share the same setup all over the place. :D

Well to be honest.. i loved your idea so much Jek.. that i started talking with one of the admins of the Lucas forums (our one and only Matt Windu) And he said that in theory your idea could work.
He will look into it and this week he will inform us of the possabillaty.

I go with Devil Doll. Most people who complained now has a custom title, or are within grasping range of one. Sooo... just wait a month or three, and wait for the new batch of 200-500 post count persons to start complaining, because I'm sure won't anymore! :D

May I draw your attention to this (http://www.fubargaming.com/forum/ranks.php).

Whoever makes the ranks, maybe you could have images for them? Like I've done for my forum, I think it looks spiffy.

I liek Juz's I dea and the 750 you choose one of the elites but instead of 1500 for choose your own tittle make it 1000.

I think once you reach 50 you should be able to either customize your rank or just follow the ranks you have set out in the first post of this thread.

We should be able to customize our ranks cause some of us already have ranks either in game or with our PA's!

As someone with very few posts, most of them of a good quality (so i'd like to think), it would be nice to progress through a couple of ranks more quickly. An intermediate between Bantha Fodder and Pit droid would be nice.
I suggest "Nerf Herder" for 25 Posts
- "scruffy lookin'" would be optional.

Do you mean everyone's ideas that they put down before mine didnt go?

I think we should keep the ranking system as it is. Only after 1000 posts the default would be Jedi Master, but you can also go into the profile menu and be able to type your own in. :)
