What about residents in a country that don't have a major military ranking system? I'm good with these, but recently, I lost my little crown. :p

I just don't think it's worth the effort, but it would be cool...

Perhaps vBulletin has some part of the ranking system that can be modified to display different rank names depending on the country you have chosen in your profile. IIRC, the FileFront forums, which also use vBulletin, are capable of something like that.

I think replacing the rank line with custom title line would be better, we used to have that until someone got the idea of writing 'Banned' on it, making everyone think he was banned :/

I just wish I was still a regular Sergeant...

I don't think it's possible to demote me and let me keep my post count. :(

No, these ranks are a mix of many countries from all over the world. Leave it.

To hell with ranks, Custom User Titles ftw.

Uhhhhh... no. Too much aggro with silly user titles and and such. As for the ranks, it'd be a nightmare to code I imagine. Sorry folks, cannae see it happening!

Well, a good way to deter that is to ban anyone with the Banned title. :p

What the balls are you guys talking about? If I was running the forums you wouldn't see any post counts.

Post counts/ ranks dont mean anything. In fact join date used more when questioning a persons legibility. :-D

Kinda point-less thread.
