This may be in the "nobody cares but me" department, but I decided to re-do the ranks today. Rather than titles like "newborn troll" they have been replaced by a character level, sort of like in 5E T&T.
And the upper limit is set so even our top posters should take a while to get there. ;D

By the way: so far only Mahrundl and Boozer have gotten to 5th level.

How do we get promoted, please? I imagine it is by posting replies.

Naharaht, it is based on your number of postings. I don't know all of the rankings, but I think that Level 2 starts at 20 posts, Level 3 at 50, and Level 4 at 75, and Level 5 at 150. Vin knows the exact numbers, I'm sure.

Vin knows all, sees all. (And forgets most of it.)
Mahrundl, I exalt thee for paying attention to the number of posts needed to advance. I should smite you as well for sharing this information, but Vin is in a good mood. :-)

What, you mean I got them right? I'm stunned!
Actually, I just looked at a few people at various levels, and picked what seemed like appropriate milestones in the applicable ranges.

no Angband (whatever that is...)
You need to track down an issue of Knights of the Dinner Table from Kenzer & Co. Best RPG magazine on the market, by far. Hoody-Hoo and eee-pees are in-jokes.
and if you have problems finding US "comics" on that side of the pond, lemme know and I'll toss a copy as far as I can! Should reach the Azores if the breeze is right...

Ah, I know KoTD, although not intimately. I've checked out the website on a number of occasions. Good stuff! (And the Hoody-Hoo should have tipped me off...)

Forgot to add, Angband is a Rogue-like computer game. Text only graphics, classic hack-and-slash dungeon crawl. Experience the terror and awe of encountering a D!
(D represents an ancient Dragon, as you might guess.)

What, you mean I got them right? I'm stunned! Well ... you weren't EXACTLY correct but pretty close.  I have to keep a few secrets, right?
