Emperor

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

(Not griping at all about my status, of course )

TinCool

Hmm, wonder what ranking I am ?

TinCool

So how does one become a commander cloud ?

MindPhuck

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

Emperor's profile :

Donno, only the masta can answer.

Emperor

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

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

Teeth.

Emperor

Must get those posts going double quick then, eh?

Cheers.

Monty - the one and only

think its about 30 posts for lieutenat

Emperor

30? Think I can just about manage that

WhiteWashMan

but i thought ensigns(hahaha funny word) were allowed on the bridge.
theres a few ppl here who shouldnt be allowed out of the house on their own
maybe you can call them umm.... red shirts to be orginal
hahaha

Emperor

Some ensigns (hahaha?) were even given helm control, so do underestimation of us is not advised </bullsh1t>

Yes just look at Wesley Crusher, who went off to become a higher form of life (thank christ)

Emperor

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

WhiteWashMan

but isnt an enzime a type of protein or something?

Emperor

Well if it is, all we can do is grow

Koopa

oh my god

Emperor

what's wrong with you, VLSI boy?

Slosh

Lets see....

Monty - the one and only

grow? in to a larger enzime perhaps!

Emperor

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

Shinji

Wesley Crusher evolved into a higher form of life?

Lets face it, he could hardly go any lower...

Baz_

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

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

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??? (btw ill race you to the 30000th! )

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
Have to get 440 posts just to be in the top 25 now, so im well behind

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

Asuka

amp

I agree.

[yaaaaaa!!!! 300 posts!!! wuhoooo!!!!! )

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

Case rested.

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 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.

Zero

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

Emperor

Damn caterers

Emperor

Waaay! Lieutenant!

*retires to his corner*

WhiteWashMan

well, you may have noticed but the majority of my posts (ie about 1500 of them) have been posted during my work hours.
i feel there is nothing wrong with using my time in work to do this.
didnt notice any posts from me durng the weekend when i have a life
no smileys here, zero, youre very grouchy today....

Asuka

Hobbes:

heh i agree totally
Just looking through the post counts there is a column for interests and i note that a lot of people have put down 'Ummmm ahhh - Quake' and 'Quake - duhhh' as if the boards were made entirely for quake players. It kinda ****es me off.

Asuka

Baz_

well tough asuka ya little p1ssed of b'stard. You get special powers though when you get a commanders rank.
Can't wait for that, even though it probably won't happen.....ah well
