Hi everyone. I have been on YWO for a few weeks now and i have one question.

What are the ' ranks ' that are displayed below your profile picture. I call them Ranks becuase i don't know what they are actually called. I am an abstract thinker, i have seen Makers of Worlds, Literar Newbies etc...

Also does anybody know any others, and in what order to they come in?

Thanx

Not sure this is the right section for this, but whatever.

They depend on how many posts you have. Here:

Rankings are little titles under your username which indicate how many posts you've made. Here is a list of the rankings used at YWO, and the number of posts needed to see them:

0-9: Literary Newbie
10-24: Novice Writer
25-49: Abstract Thinker
50-99: Idea Scribe
100-249: Scholarly Apprentice
250-499: Literary Artist
500-749: Aspiring Author
750-999: Creative Fanatic
1000-1999: Freelance Writer
2000-2999: Wordsmith
3000-3999: Language Creator
4000-4999: Maker of Worlds
5000 and up: Master of English

Be proud, Shadow, or just ask and admin to add more ranks on for you. :P

This post just made me a Ceative Fanatic. ^^

Yeah, but it just gives light to everyone that I've spammed the most. Well, Raf has, really, but me second. :D

Yeah, but not all of that is spam. It also shows you've contributed lots too. :)

You know, a couple of our members are getting dangerously close to that "Master of English" title. Something tells me we'll have to add new ones...

I can't believe it took me less than a year to reach what I am now. xD

This has turned into a discussion forum... :)

Can someone move this to offtopic?

I'm a... Creative Fanatic! Yay for spam!

I can't believe I nearly have 1000 posts.

Why'd this get moved to Suggestions and Feedback instead of The Common Room? :P

I didn't know you could move things from the common room. That is where the spam goes...

Majyk
01-16-2009, 04:37 PM
It didn't get moved from the common room I don't think...

Lizzie

How is the 'Suggestions and Feedback'? Its not suggesting anything, and it started of as a question. Move this to offtopic. As apple said. Thats where all the spam goes. This is spam. Move it.

Majyk
01-16-2009, 05:04 PM
That's why I asked. *sigh*

Lizzie
01-16-2009, 05:05 PM
I asked first! :P I beated you Mayjk. Hah! And I have asked George since the other mods thought it okay to move it here. Not saying....I'll stop before I dig myself a hole.

Majyk
01-16-2009, 05:07 PM
You asked it to be moved to offtopic, but I asked why it had been moved to suggestions and feedback. But whatever :P

Lizzie
01-16-2009, 05:13 PM
Lets just say : "HEY! Dance!" and wait until George or anyone else moves it. *Hint*.

You know, whoever moved this the first time probably just moved it into this section by accident.

Majyk
01-16-2009, 07:18 PM
Yes, since it's not a suggestion or feedback. :p

It's in the Common Room. I can now sleep tonight.

Woohoo.

There was definitely more complaints in this thread about where it was placed than posts about the actual topic. That's kind of depressing.

I'm not sure whether Master of English and Maker of Worlds are in the right place. Maker of Worlds just seems more significant and amazing than Master of english. :0

Majyk
01-22-2009, 08:58 AM
Neh, because Maker of Words is only words, while Master of English is the language. Not that I'm close to either of them that it matters to me :P

Carraka

Yeah, but Words covers all the languages, and English covers only one.

Starry

It's Maker of WorLds, not Maker of Words! It doesn't take much effort to make up words, but it does for worlds. And yeah, I think Master of English was one of the ones the admins thought up once they realized they were going to run out of ranks. It's not the most exciting, but it's still a good title.

Jack

Yh. I mean i would much rather be a maker of WORLDS than a master of english. Maker of Worlds sounds higher up to me.
