The Golden Pellet?

Post by pmh » Wed Dec 05, 2012 7:25 pm

Reading up on the forum setup,  it is possible to make custom rankings.

This can be text, or a picture, and appears under usernames in a post.

These can also be programmed to change dependent upon the number of posts made.

I was thinking a bronze, silver,  gold pellet for 50, 500, and 1000 posts, or something similar.

Just thought it might add a little light heartedness to the forum.

Kind regards,

I've now put this in place to add a little levity.

Ranks are 1 to 5 pellets, being awarded at:-

50+ Posts,
100+ Posts
250+ Posts
500+ Posts
1000+ Posts

A few may have noticed this appearing below their usernames already.

I probably could do with thinking of some better descriptions though!

Kind regards,

This is a great idea Phil. It would be good if the community could come up with the descriptions too.

What about 50+ posts - Plinker

PS. Are we talking sensible posts as I may struggle a little.  :wink:  :lol:

Very good idea, we need one for each class.  :D

There is only one member, to date, who has earned his pellets, and is about to jump to the next stage.

Right, we have the following, after Plinkits excellent start:-

50+ Posts - Plinker

I have thought of:-

100+ Posts ?
250+ Posts ?
500+ Posts - Sharpshooter
1000+ Posts - Marksman

Though I think it better if we forget the number of posts description and just stick with text,  e.g. Plinker

Any other suggestions?

Kind regards,

How about?

Plinker
Marksman
Sharphooter
Pistoleer
Master Pistoleer

In any event I agree that it would look better without the number of posts next to it

Cheers
