Basically, i was browsing around today and i noticed that in 490-something posts i will be "promoted" from Major to Lance Corporal, could we perhaps implement a few more ranks to avoid this painful fate? :P

Out of curiosity, what are the post numbers that are needed for each rank?

it roughly doubles each time.

We can't have anymore ranks we have hit the limit.

They basically tell people you're a down right post-a-holic. I suppose it's like getting ranking in games (like COD). The higher your rank the more satisfying it is for the noob to shoot you down ;)

Pfah! The only way I got my rank up in BF3 is attrition. One only needs to see my K/D ratio to know that.
Oddly, it's the same here too. I have YET to put up anything to look at. I'll change that... eventually.

Well stop teasing us with "I see dead cool things at work" and get some minis up then! ;) And also more dead cool things at work: if you trip over a plastic T-hawk I'll have it!

The beauty is at some arbitrary number of posts you unlock custom titles...

Is it 3000? That seems likely, based on the fact that I am over 2000...

It was somewhere around 5 or 6k I think. Been a while since I went hunting it :)

No chance of reaching it :P
