GG and the five stars of the YABB forum
-
....now is it me, or doesn't GG get a rank if he has five stars? Alright, so he's made it past Level 3 (in posting terms), but on this forum - link below - you get a special rank for five stars:
Makes you think, doesn't it? ;D

I'd also assumed "Winning Dungeoneer" would make up the 5-star title: it certainly fits with the other titles. You may be right about the possible confusion, however.
For my part, I certainly don't care much about remaining without a title for now. Don't worry about adding one for my sake. There'll be a need for one in the long-term, naturally.
James, I'm very amused by the title on the forum you point to. But with all the in-character prattle I've managed in my current incarnation, making me a Deity would probably be asking for trouble!!! I can just see me issuing new Commandments:
*Thou shalt not praise Brother Strange.
Thou shalt not eat the life force quiche. To do so is Sin.*
I could go on. I won't. Be grateful.
P.S. If it fitted (which it probably wouldn't), I'd always thought a title for Illusion could have been "The Powers That Be".
P.P.S. At least in my case, "Winning Dungeoneer" wouldn't really be suitable since I was eaten by Mug the Gargoyle in Level 3 for saying his mouth was almost as big as Elita's. They only let me off because the next team hadn't arrived. (Actually, I fed them to a certain two-headed canine, but please don't tell Tim Child or Treguard.)

Nic - how about "Dungeon Master"?
That's actually very good.

Just coz you're a blabbermouth, GG

Knew titles! Very knice! Thankyou.

Pardon my ignorance but being a little new, I wondered just how many times I have to post to acquire a second star. It's a really cool system - was it based on the staff reward schemes one sees in these fast-food places?

I think it's:
Posts Rank
0-50 : Knewbie
51-150 : Level 1
151-250 : Level 2
251-500 : Level 3
501+ : Knight
As you know, the Brollachan hungers for knowledge and was pleased to see this information posted for its perusal. However, it notes one necessary change:
51- 100 : Level 1
101-250 : Level 2

Heh, if it is a fast food system, all those people wandering around here with one star are the sad spotty teenagers who have been positively forced by their parents and the need for cash to get a temporary job at MacBurger Ltd, and hate every minute of it.
However, by the same analogy, that makes me the 55 year old who's built up a "career" with the MacBurger franchise, and who after 37 years of working there even mutters in his sleep "Would you like fries with that?".

What does that make us 4-stars?

Pretty much brainwashed by MacBurger's cruel regime, but not without hope of escape. You still get sick of the sight of MacBurger's own brand chicken sandwiches, the smell of the deep fat fryers and the sound of my voice shouting at you to serve the customers rather than chatting among yourselves about last Saturday's football scores.
Get out while you still can! To stay with MacBurger is to invite a life of misery, despair and medium sized soft drinks.
