    Can I ask how the ranks of Commander, Lieutenant, and Ensign were assigned?

    Hmm, wonder what ranking I am ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,894 ✭✭✭TinCool


    So how does one become a commander cloud ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,207 ✭✭✭MindPhuck


    I think it has something to do with the date you registered and/or the number of posts?

    Emperor's profile :
    Date Registered: 08-01-2000
    Status: Ensign
    Total Posts: 9

    Donno, only the masta can answer.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭Emperor


    Ah, I see, thanks bunches, I _thought_ it might be post-based smile.gif


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,010 ✭✭✭Dr_Teeth


    Ensign - posted under a certain number of posts (30? 50? I dunno)

    Lieutenant - posted over the number above

    Commander - moderator of at least one board

    Captain - He Who Must Be Obeyed smile.gif

    Teeth.

    Well he was about the only one on the ship who couldn't tune into the doctor doctor jokes, I'd not blame him either smile.gif

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭Emperor

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,274 ✭✭✭Monty - the one and only


    grow? in to a larger enzime perhaps!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 59 ✭✭Emperor


    Naw, I think it's the proteins that instigate the growing... smile.gif

    Hmm Emperor is going for a very particular pattern here.
    He might get there yet methinks.

    bye for now

    Heh - its quite obvious emperor is posting inane posts just so that he will lose the rank of ensign sooner smile.gif 3 more posts, if it is 30 smile.gif
    Its along the lines of getting annoying mass emails and then annoying replys to annoying mass emails that simply state 'me too' tongue.gif

    At least emperor isnt posting 4 seperate topics entitled 1, 2, 3 and 4 tho, containing the text 1, 2, 3, 4 just to get the 20000th post, right slosh??? smile.gif (btw ill race you to the 30000th! smile.gif)

    Personally, i dont particularly want to be placed in the high post rankings with hobbes, wwman and the rest. Its not that i think theyre nerds or anything, but there is a point when posting becomes excessive, and im quite sure that at some stage hobbes has been the first to reply to one of his posts smile.gif
    Have to get 440 posts just to be in the top 25 now, so im well behind smile.gif

    well
    nuff crap said smile.gif
    if id wanted to boost my posts level i would have posted this in more than one post smile.gif

    [yaaaaaa!!!! 300 posts!!! wuhoooo!!!!! tongue.gif )

    Who says they were inane? That's rather a long plank you're walking there, Asuka....

    My initial post made a lot more sense than a lot of the "inane" posts out there smile.gif

    Case rested.

    (2 left smile.gif)

    I only replied to my posts because I didn't have an edit mode. Not for grabbing posts. I don't post to stay number one smile.gif just happen to be so far ahead that I would have to be quiet for quite some time.

    It's just that I would reply on all the boards where as the die hard quakers didn't look beyond Quake board.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,399 ✭✭✭Zero


    ah yeah, but that's just your quest for friends, that doesn't count.
