Ranks explained

Postby Infinity's End » 03.22.10 8:23pm

*PREFACE*
Just wanted to make it CRYSTAL CLEAR that, as stated in the Forum Rules Thread, Ranks mean absolutely NOTHING other than representing your current post count. They do not give you special permission for anything, nor do they give you any rights over other forum members.

_______________________________________________________________________________________


Since most of them are unveiled, I figured I'd tell you guys the denominations for each rank. There are quite a few more ranks left, though! I'll fill in the rest when you guys earn them. We'll see how long it takes you guys to get there...

I confess I had gone as far as looking at the directory index page (though no further). Clever :)

Always wondered whether anybody had noticed that. ;)

When I read the thread title, I thought "there goes the fun from finding out the new rank." But good thing I was wrong.

But now that I'm a Mother Brain, all you Metroids and Kraids and Ridleys have to bow down to me!! HAHAHAHAHA-- *cough*. But you Super Metroids, stay the fuck out. And Samus, eat laser.

AMG would have gotten here first if he were still here. And it's not like I'm posting much these days.

I bet the next rank is Samus and that Houston is the final rank. Maybe SA-X in there somewhere.

Houston should be reserved for when the post counter rolls over to a negative value.

I would assume Samus Aran is the highest.
:samus:
Maybe Zero Suit Samus is just before her.

Samus is used as the Admin rank, already.

If Admiral Castor "Damn!No!" Dane is one, I will giggle my pants off.

Same applies for General Adam "Lady Killer" Malkovitch. Which I nearly typed as Malkobitch. Why do those keys have to be next to each other.



Actually, no, I will giggle myself into a coma if Zoomer is one of the higher ranks. I'm halfway there already...
