I'd prefer no weird special ranks to anyone.

He came up with the system, he deserves something special. Plus, he REALLY loves cows.

pls no

See, he really wants it. We all know how much Robotron loves sarcasm.
Robotron for Cow Lover rank!

I see Syrah has written that the new system was inspired by the OPs post. So...what is the system? Or is it exactly what OP has written?

I think it's great to give some kind of meaning to titles. It's also nice to be able to differentiate staff members. It looks really good.

It's quite cool to see. I hope they fix the capitalization issue in "Stone Guard" and maybe add the rank icons I posted on page 2, assuming it won't cause any bandwidth issues. Giving all staff members the Rank 15 one would certainly help them stand out even more!

As for the titles, I tried to give a fair split between the Alliance and Horde ones. "Forum High Warlord" is a sort of tribute to the Illidrama boards, which is where I first saw it back when I used to play there.

A way to further improve the titles would be to just add a "preferred faction" drop down menu to the User CP, and selecting Alliance or Horde would give you that faction's titles based on post count, but this might be confusing to some users and would take much longer to implement as opposed to the system I suggested (it took me like ten minutes to do on InvisionFree boards).
