What is rank and what is it's purpose? I noticed a new rank "civilian" just popped up and many crewmen are now civilians. Is that some sort of demotion/promotion?

I resent being booted out of the galactic service without a proper defense. I don't have any civilian expertise and prefer to remain in the service. Mad

Where's da manual? FAQ is very limited? Very Happy


ROFLMAO
'Rank' is simply a measure of how many messages you have posted. Unfortunetly, in its current incarnation, it can easily be abused by people posting frivilous short annoying messages just to gain rank. Mad

I inserted 'civilian' rank at the very bottom of the rank structure so that people 'just passing through' wouldn't have enough rank points to make 'crewman recruit'.

Currently, it is as follows:
Civilian            0 posts
Crewman Recruit     4 posts
Crewman Apprentice 10 posts
Crewman            20 posts 
and so on


In the future, if we get a good user base and have some good trusted moderators, I want to implement a rank system where moderators/admin will assign rank points based on the *quality* of a person's post. Thus, frivilous posts would not add to rank.

[EDITED: This ranking info is now obsolete.]
