since my christmas topic went over so well, thought i'd try again...<br /><br />anyone else like the idea of more ranks? i'm certainly no captain, deserving more like an ensign or lieutenant junior grade ranking. propose iboats (if possible) follows the same rank structure that we use in the navy (u.s.). maybe one rank for each 100 posts?<br /><br />any seconds?<br /><br />man, am i really bored...

Re: more ranks?

I would almost prefer Chief over Admiral anyday. Although the Admiral is in charge the Chief runs the show and knows everything. But then agian most likely I would be better off staying unenlisted anyway.

Re: more ranks?

Great suggestions on having additional ranking. I agree that having only a few rankings currently is not enough. We are hoping that when we upgrade the boards software to the next version that one of the upgrades will be additional rankings. When that will be is when Sloopy writes over 100 posts without a spelling error :) (in other words, who knows?) Until then sorry guys and thanks for puting up with our limitations.

Re: more ranks?

Most likely any upgraded version would allow members to type in their own monikers, ie: Master Baiter, Paddle Boy, King Neptune.<br /><br />In such a case I hereby claim, "Dude of Bildge".<br /><br />A Private Message feature would be nice too.<br /><br />Alas, it sounds as though we can only dream. BH<br /><br />Sorry Sloop, your three (3) posts here, in this thread, all have spelling errors. Go back and edit the posts or we'll be stuck with 9000 Admirals - all giving us the biz!

Re: more ranks?

Hmmm, ok.<br /><br />If we throw out Capitalization (spelling or gramatical?) then there's only two of the four.<br />50/50 does show promise though. :D <br /><br />Your last post: "non"(sic) in place of "None".<br />And your first one with the word "your self"(sic).<br />"Yourself" is one word.<br /><br />Note: if you had typed just the word "you" there might have been extra points for being gramatically correct, to boot.<br /><br />Maybe instead of the PM feature, a higher priority might be given to Spell Check. Although that brings up the cliche of leading a horse....<br /><br />Admin5 - 100 post's is being pretty rough on the guy, don't you think? About a more realistic number. <br />Please?
