ok to start with i cant claim credit for this..stole this idea from someone else

its about the "titles"

the idea is to change the titles from the spanish book that they are based after to GW titles

would this be considered or thrown out with disgust?

We're always interested in unique suggestions. Perhaps users could give some examples of posting ranks and we'll see how it goes ?

I'm good with the other except for showing progress about next title since this is a forum not a game

I didnt mean to have an actual counter showing progress till next level, although i think forums have that option. basically, thinks would be exact same, except someone who is "quiet traveller" might instead become "treasure hunter" and a current "barber" may become "Tyrian cartographer"

was thinking alone the those lines but need to incoroperate factions in this aswell since many new members are factions only..

maybe start from "devourer egg- 0 posts to something like shiro - 6000 posts

maybe reduce the number of lvls

0-100 -
100-300 -
300-600 -
600-900 -
1000-1500 -
1500-2500 -
2500-5000 -
5000-6500 -
10000+ <banned for spamming>

ok then:
devourer egg
mantid hatchling
grawl

although adding new campaigns could throw this off. maybe weapon types!
Wielder of gladius<---lol! look up what gladius means in roman....
Wielder of Shortsword
Wielder of fake crystalline sword
Wielder of Firey Dragon Sword


all the way to Wielder of (?)

Maybe find an enemy of lvl1-30

lvl1 - River Skale Tad
lvl2 - Mantid Drone
lvl30 - Rotscale

Tie it into common ingame levels could be an interesting idea... then again.. River Skale Tad >>>>>>>>> Rotscale

Hmmm... interesting. I'm thinking of something more along the lines of relating to the name 'Guild Wars Guru'.

0= Aspiring Guru
10= Moa Bird Guru
30= Skale Guru
50= Mantid Guru
80= Grawl Guru
150= Charr Guru
250= Mergoyle Guru
350= Ettin Guru
500= Dredge Guru
750= Naga Guru
1000= Tengu Guru
1500= Kirin Guru
2250= Griffon Guru
3250= Hydra Guru
4500= Oni Guru
6000= Turtle Guru
7750= Dragon Guru
9750=

The order gives the indication of a rise of intelligence/importance (I think...).

Then people with custom titles would all have to have 'Something Guru' too
