[knight26]

Anyone want a bloodlust buff? :3

 

[Archian]

The overview has been changed (refresh your browser if you can't see it)

Users who have over 17.500 posts now receive the Chaos Blademaster, instead of the previos Thrall.

 

[WhiteFang]

I bet DSG is going to have Gul'dan before 2016

Yeah .For a moment i thought WTF when the f*** did i become a moderator...I went and took my glasses just i case my eyes were failing me .

 

[Chaosy]

Seeing as he posts 1835 posts per year on average, no.

 

[Traxamillion]

+ Promotes posting/discussion

- Promotes spamming/low quality discussion

I was already demoted from Warchief to some ugly red guy...

I will have to Critical Strike you while in Wind Walk and then spin mindlessly in a whirlwind Bladestorm hitting nothing. At least I will not be lonely as I can always look at my Mirror Image like a sad guy.

Don't worry,you're almost The Champion of The Horde

LooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooL....Well as you said you still got your mirror image

Would be neat to see a live statistics chart over how many have each rank etc.

Any wip on the donation icons so far?
Goblin icons are still Horde related and greedy mercenaries = gold related. Would fit in nicely with the new theme I think.

I think he meant those two donated 100$ and get their chat icon as their rank as well.

 

[deepstrasz]

Hey guys, check out Heinvers's profile. He ain't got a rank, nada.

 

[_lycan]

Nice

 

[Gilles]

Padding my icon count.

 

[The Panda]

Love this!

 

[Edge45]

Ohh, I'm a Shaman, (though disadvantages are that some people don't really want to post and post, so I guess they have a slow rank-up, like me)

 

[Winimasker]

Nice user ranks, those ranks remind me of other users' post counts rather than ignoring the post counts of the users in the past. At start, I don't see there is the usefulness of those ranks but now I discover their usefulness. A good change there!

 

[SA Dashie]

Yay I'm an admin..
Oh wait..

Nice work on this system, I would like to see a Night Elf theme to!

Hey guys, check out Heinvers's profile. He ain't got a rank, nada.

He probably removed his email.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Not sure how I feel about this, but okay.

 

[1)ark_NiTe]

Love the change. Only chance of me ever making next rank is if WC4 comes out though

 

[deepstrasz]

At start, I don't see there is the usefulness of those ranks but now I discover their usefulness. A good change there!

And what's the usefulness other than a rank being the mirror image of the post count?

 

[Majkowski]

Looks great, I like it! I'm curious what will those donation icons look like.

 

[Zombie]

Perfect. The troll icon fits me like a glove.

 

[clockwork2]

Ooooooh nice!
EDIT: EARTH STORM FIRE HEAD MY CALLL!!!!!!!! Sweet time to rock on!

 

[WhiteFang]

Perfect. The troll icon fits me like a glove.

Well,it's almost time to say goodbye to it

 

[Deolrin]

What if at each tier you got icons from each race and could select which to use? However I think that would conflict with the Orc theme Ralle is so fond of as well as require a lot of work to prepare the icons and system.

It's weird to me how the forums have a Night Elf theme but the icons are specifically Horde themed. I like the Horde too, but having the choice between each of the four races could work out, I think. Just takes a bit of getting used to and hover-over tooltips ("Rank X - Unit").

Also, I think the ideas of unlocking different races or different icons based on rep count and perhaps resource count (maybe taking into account the rating or number of downloads each resource received) might be a good idea too. Not sure if each resource should weigh the same though - maybe Maps should be the heaviest and Icons the least heavy, but that's also sort of unfair for different types of artists I suppose.

Another thing is that maybe mods could have a unique flag or border or some kind of extra indicator to indicate their status, thus allowing them to keep their post-count / custom icons.

 

[Mr. Gameplay Knowledge]

Archian,good job ,and thank you.

 

[Wasabee]

I hope to see night elf themed icons but I got nothing against the orc icons I also like it too.

 

[NearbyHermit]

The spirits of the earth guide me !

 

[Squiggy]

If the goal of this is to donate in order to have a custom rank icon, that may work in my case~

 

[deepstrasz]

What's the rank icon for banned people now?

 

[Wasabee]

Male peasants.

 

[Deathcom3s]

All mod icons have the purple flag next to them, so they're still distinguishable despite the different icons people may have.

 

[Wasabee]

Mods also have a night elf icons compare to the members' orc ones.

 

[clockwork2]

Lok tar ogar!!!!!

 

[Ken-E]

This is actually a nice change! I feel empowered!

 

[Almia]

Oh DSG, when will you ever have a companion for that icon? *sigh*

 

[WhiteFang]

Gimme a few years,Ill catch him

 

[Daffa]

We'll see who will follow his trails.
2K posts per year... Must beat that...

The real question is; who will be first to get banned for spamming?

 

[clockwork2]

hahahahha fair question.

 

[Dr Super Good]

They could skew the icon distribution such that each icon is award to a certain number of people, ordered by posts. Not sure how one would implement it or if people would understand what is happening. On the plus side I would get promoted up icons lol.

You sure that it's impossible? I recall someone has 20+/day posts in the past

Actually,a while ago I did 30+ posts a day(check my conversation with Windrunner29)
