I think we mentioned this before, way back, a couple or more years ago when we were running basically rudderless. I tried to search it out but it must not have been a thread topic but some incidental topic that came up in another thread, but basically lets make our members position rank names unique.
What we have now is pretty lame and uniteresting IMO.
newbie
full member
senior member
member extraordinare
moderator
How about some more Western oriented ranking names?
We can have fun with this!
My suggestions:
road apple = newbie
greenhorn or tin-horn = full member
gunslinger = senior member
bounty killer = member extraordinare
sheriff or marshall = moderator
-
I like that!
I'd be a bounty killer! :D
-
Is that possible? I'd really like to be "Bounty Killer" 8)
-
I emailed Sonny I suggest you guys do too, lol
-
You guys are forgetting the two star rank, Junior Member
anybody with five thousand posts should have six stars, and be callled "The Jesus"
-
anybody with more than five thousand posts should have six stars, and be callled "The Jesus"
I'm almost there. 8)
-
The only problem with this would be that, according to Leone's films, bounty killers don't get any ladys. What's the point of having five stars then :'( :o?
-
They only don't get ladies when they have better things to do (i.e. kill people.) As evidence in FAFDM, the womens still think bounty killers are the shit.
-
But I always got better things to do (killing people etc.)...

No matter what you have to do, you can always make time to do women.

This is a great idea guys, except the only one who can officially change it is Cal. I'll send him a link to this thread and ask if it can be arranged.
-
I think the one-star newbies should be called "Sawn-Off Runts" after MWNN's timeless insult.

-
I'd rather have "Bandito" for three-star member.
-
Nothing is carved in stone..... ;) except road apple & bounty killer O0
Bandito is good.
-
;D I like Road Apple now that I looked up what it is.
That sounds like something I should've known.
-
;D I like Road Apple now that I looked up what it is.
What is it?
-
it fits some newbies too. ;D
-
something a horse leaves you
-
What CJ is tryin' to say is it's a little piece of horse shit!
-
;D
-
I like these designations better:
newbie=greenhorn
junior member=desperado
full member=cow puncher
senior member=wrangler
member extraordinare=trail boss
I like the the idea of the mods going by law enforcement designations (but CJ, marshal is spelled with one "L").
-
But I always got better things to do (killing people etc.)...
Better than the pretty little girl in your signature? *scoffs* I think not. . . ::)
-
(but CJ, marshal is spelled with one "L").
so shoot me....
-
Guys, Cal needs the final requests of the names.
Please post a list that we can all agree on.
-
Suggestion...
Chicken thief=newbie
Ranch Hand=Junior member
Cowboy=full member
Bounty Killer=senior member
what would be better than Bounty Killer for member extraordinare?
-
Everyone (or the grand majority) must agree on a final suggestion...
-
what would be better than Bounty Killer for member extraordinare?
I don't think there was something better than a Bounty Killer in Leone's films... :(
-
I don't think there was something better than a Bounty Killer in Leone's films... :(
I was thinking "Gunslinging Avenger"?
-
I was thinking "Gunslinging Avenger"?
And I am thinking "Wow, that sucks."
Sorry, man. Brutally honest.
-
And I am thinking "Wow, that sucks."

Those are always the heros in Leone's films.
And Sartana can pretty much drop kick any Bounty Hunter's ass.
i still like my first three stages the best.
We can change "Cowbody" to "Cowpoke"
-
I'm all for the new ranking system cigar! Count me in.
-
"Peon" or "chicken thief" for noobs.
"Ranch Hand" for junior member
"cowpoke" or "cowboy" for full member
then the last two would be gunslinger and Bounty Hunter. I guess.
-
I think the one-star newbies should be called "Sawn-Off Runts" after MWNN's timeless insult.
I don't get it. Do you mean me? When did I insult anybody? Pardon me if I'm getting the wrong idea. Do ppl not believe I have a brother? Is it about my "advertisement" thing, which I'll post so everyone understands. Tell me if I'm making to much of a big deal.
To all newbies: do you feel included? 'Cause if you don't come play The Sergio Leone Elimination Game! Just go up to General Info. Then go to General Discussion. When you're there look down at the subect list. Keep on looking... it's there! All members are encouraged to participate!
-
People if you don't post a final list i'm gonna have to choose the names myself, along with Banjo.
-
Oh. Sorry. I'm for the redone ranks, anyways, I don't mind the normal ranks either.
-
I'm not talking about either!
In FAFDM the Man With No Name calls the little mexican boy a "Sawn off runt" after he tries to cheat some money out of MWNN.
In GBU the Man With No Name calls Tuco a "Sawn off runt" as well.

Notice he only uses it for Mexican characters.
-
Ohhhhhhhh... Now everything makes even more sense... Still posting the advertisement, btw. It'll prob'ly get annoying, so just ignore it.

A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. ;)
(I didn't mean that, my darling :-[)
"Gunslinger" for senior members and "Bounty Killer" for Member extreordinaire, IMO. "Dust in feet" for newbies. I say "Coffin Maker" would suit mods better than "Sheriff" or the like. In Leone's films Sheriffs are corrupted...
Sonny, we can't decide these kind of things in 12 hours. Patience.
-

Well it can't possibly be that complicated. There will be some disagreement regardless, but we're just interested in a majority vote.
How's this..
newbie = Road Apple
Junior member = chicken theif
full member = Bandido
senior member = Gunslinger
member extraordinaire = Bounty Killer
2,000+ posts = Extraordinary (or honorary) Bounty Killer
moderator = Sheriff

That's cool, but the only thing I don't like is ROAD APPLE. It just doens't fit the other one's.

Yeah, but I was sleeping and in school (and sleeping in school) while you were already ready to change them. ;D Give it a day or two to give all regular user a change to expres their opinions.
Your list is fine. O0

It's funny 'cause a road apple is a piece of horse shite!

The idea is to try to get people off the newbie rank, and who wants to be a "road apple"?
;D
-
It will become an integral part of SLWB jargon, we'll be saying things like, "I don't care how many posts rrpower has, he's still a road apple."

which would fit perfectly. O0

hahaha poor rrpower. He doesn't deserve such status.
-
I'm for Sonny's updated list, go for it. O0
-
I was hoping we weren't going to consider ourselves outlaws, but this is obviously what everyone wants, so my counter-proposal:
newbie=chicken thief
junior member=desperado
full member=gunslinger
senior member=bounty killer
member extraordinare=avenging angel
moderator=deputy
administrator=sheriff/marshal
-
Wow, thanks moderators! This is kick ass!
-

Speak for yourself Moviesceleton ;)
-
This definitely kicks ass! Thanks!

Well, I was afraid of what would happen, but eventually my girl didn't disappear overnight. 8)

I think it necessary to have that extra position after 2,000. Not for my benefit but just so the whole position thing has more diversity.
Kinda boring as is. Everybody is a Bounty Killer!
Not usmev >:(

I agree too. But you made me laugh with your ending. ;D

I don't mind that at all.
But try suggesting that to Silenzio.

Avenging Angel is soooooooooooo laaaaaaaaaaaaaame.

I'm in agreement with Firecracker here. Although I love the new Position names. I've always thought there were to few of them to begin with. I think there should be about 10 of them. I think there should be new names after you've crossed the 2,000...5,000...8,000, and 10,000 post mark, or something along those lines.

This idea I like.
I just think it's cool to have something like this to keep member's around as much as they can. The more member's we have here talking consistently makes the forum's a lot of fun. It's great talking to all of you who are here as much as you can.
-

I see it as a good thing to but it could also be a curse.
Some members may feel the need to post as much as possible in order to achieve the highest status.
I say take your time.
-
Well i doubt people go on just to increase their post number... (knock on wood)
But the idea of having more position names is good so that the board has more originality and diversity.

Yeah, I agree with you. I mean to try and post at will to try and get up your posting number is a bit boring and not all that fun. I just think it's cool to have a bit more rankings. I just like seeing the different names under everyone's USERNAMES. It's pretty cool.

Hey we finally agree on something - rather than all the regular posters being bounty killers it would make sense for more rankings and a variety of names.
:)
-
And what names should be the 2000, 5000, 8000, 10000 posts? ;)
-
And what names should be the 2000, 5000, 8000, 10000 posts? ;)
I suggest that just after 10000 posts users would become "Bounty Killers", because at least I can't think of anything more bad-ass than that. 8)
-
well I think we should keep "road apple" and "bounty killer" as the two book ends.
here are a few Western term names to choose from for the rest, add more if you can think of some. O0
Varmint
Polecat
Packrat
Greenhorn
Tinhorn
Piker
Sodbuster
Rancher
Drover
Trail Boss
Muleskinner
Buffalo Skinner
Card Sharp
Scout
Wagon Master
49'er
Sharpshooter

It would make a lot of sense to shuffle the pack a bit and incorporate some non outlaw terms into the existing names.
I really like Greenhorn - I was about to suggest it after coming across it in "The Hoods" book.
-
Wanted Man?
Angel of Death, instead of Avenging Angel ;D
Dynamite Expert
Outlaw
Half-Breed
Revolutionar
:P
-

I really like Wanted Man and Outlaw, Angel of Death sounds cool, makes me think of Slayer. I blast that to clear a room.
-
road apple = newbie
It should be wormy apple.
-

I agree. I don't like this road apple stuff.
-
I think Angel of Death sounds awesome. On the road apple controversy, I'm not particularly against it, but I'm not for it either. However, I'm glad I wasn't a newbie at the time when they switched the names.
-
What about Drunken Union Captain? ;D Just re-watched GBU - I love this charakter. Poor fella. :'(
-
I find Road Apple quite hilarious :)
-
The real problem is that they burn out too fast. A couple hundred post and you're already Bonty Killer...
-

haha...yeah maybe after 5000 posts.
I like the idea of being a Gunslinger.
-

Yes, that's the problem...
-
The present system is something like:
Position Posts Members
Road Apple 0 - 24 1171
Chicken Thief 25 - 49 46
Bandido 50 - 149 55
Gunslinger 150 - 499 35
Bounty Killer 500+ 32
If we want to progress this further, I suggest we PM Sonny to see if it is possible to have more cut off points (say 10 instead of the present 5) and if we get a positive response poll the members for their suggestions.

If you're lucky, you might get Mara Krupp ;)

Maybe you can have "Ancient Race" or "Legend" after 1000+

Good idea.

Instead of a 6th star, you could have an animated gif of a cigar in its place, something like this - http://www.willycigars.com/photos/Cigar-animated.gif
So it would be:
