Life is short, so enjoy it while you can.

So... guys.. what exactly do our ranks do? besides representing the number of post counts we have?

I think the rank count as your activeness on the forum and how long your post are. They don't do anything as far as I know except show your dedication to mmorpg?

If buying Marijuana supports terrorists, legalize it so we can buy American.

They establish the hierarchy for the impending apocalypse. Now, fetch me a turkey leg noob!

As Faq 5 and Faq 6 states the stars represent how active we're, and how useful the posts we make are. Also there are a few special titles that got no connection to the number of stars you got (an example of this is my current title).

Stand up for what you believe; Even if you stand alone.

Honestly, don't even bother looking at the ranks.  They're pretty rubbish if you ask me...

98% of the teenage population does or has tried smoking pot. If you''re one of the 2% who hasn''t, copy & paste this in your signature.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

I'm an administrator on another gaming site and we have a similar ranking system as MMORPG.com.  On my site, the moderators and administrators award points to each user as they see fit.  So, if your posting is informative I might give you three points but if most of your comments are just "lol" or "yeah, what he said" then I might deduct points.  At a certain point level, you will gain a new "rank" or title.  So, for example, zero points could equal a "Rookie" rank and five hundred will get you a "Veteran" rank.  Administrators can also create unique titles; we do that for contests on my site or give them as rewards for really helpful players.

MMORPG Character Monuments

...When its time for your character to take a well deserved rest...

I sell my stars on the black market.

IN the end, it means nothing. The titles and stars should be the last thing you look at. content of the message always takes priority. After reading a message and IM a bit confused or suspicious, I generally look at the post number...if its under 50...I disregard what I just read.

 

Now, my 100/100 star rank implies two things
1. You should all bow, and sing praise that my divine text has touched your thread
2. I waste a lot of time here and should find a more productive pastime

 

..I'm voting #2

Getting banned/warned as well as having posts deleted can take away from your stars
