I don't remember who said it, Sebulba perhaps?, but you could have 'Batha Poodu'.

I like it. We should also assign post levels...

Youngling 0-249
Padawan 250-999
Ready for the Trials 1000-2499
Jedi Knight 2500-4999
Jedi Master 5000-9999
Jedi Spirit 10000-19999
The Chosen One 20000+ (only to first obtainer; subsequent members would be "Another Chosen One")

How's that sound?

Mine was a joke, I'm sure he wanted to say something much more severe.

Two paths, that's the lightside and you can pick the darkside..

eg...

Sith Knight 2500-4999

Sith Lord 5000-9999

Sith Master 10000-19999

I still think The Chosen One status should be only obtained at 33K. Also, "Another Chosen One" kind of makes "The Chosen One" not the only one. How about anyone that makes it to that post number get's "Almost the Chosen One" becuase, that would make the chosen one the only one.

That would demote me!

I'm on a bunch of forums, and none have such high requirements. You guys are super-human.

^_^;;

One anime forum I'm on has "Pokemon Watcher" as it's first fifty. You wouldn't believe all the, "How do I get rid of this title" and so on we get. THat title has inspired more will to get at least 51 posts than any I've seen.

Made for IE Forum's Episode III theme month - May 2005.

I think there should be an extra, teorically impossible to get level, at, let's say, 99999999999, just for the fun of it.

Yeah, we kinda blew the curve here quite some time ago. Sorry. We've set impossibly high standards and we love 'em!

So its:-

Youngling
Padawan
Ready For The Trials
Jedi Knight
Jedi Master
Jedi Council Member
Jedi Spirit
The Chosen One

a shame 'Space Pirate' or 'Smuggler' doesn't get a look-in...

How about options for the Dark Side of things? Or is that kept for Jay The Emperor and Zion, his Imperial Guard?

Episode III showed you could be on the council without being a master

Dark side doesnt really have much... all you really have is Apprentice and Sith Lord, maybe Master and if you wanted i guess you could add in Dark/Fallen Jedi or something like that

-Darth Simon

Why Anakin really turned to the dark side:
"Anakin, You're father I am" - Yoda
"No. No. That's not true! That's impossible!" - Anakin

OK, I wonder, since Jay is changing the theme of the sight to include more than Just Star Wars, why not also add more than just SW post scores. IE, taking ranks from all over scifi/fantsy fandoms, such as:

Maia (Lord of the Rings)
System Lord (Stargate)
Q (Star Trek)

I'm not as well read as I could be, but what do y'all think of this idea?

No, that's stupid.

Also why are there no "member groups" in this site???

I think it should stick to SW themes for rankings. This site was started as an SW site and it should maintain some of that tradition while topically expanding to other arenas.

What the hell is a member group?

A member group is where a poster with a good ranking sets up a group where people in the forum can join only if they have a good post rank, eg over 100 posts

here's an example of member group...

Do you know what I mean now???

"A Jedi can feel the force flow through him".
