New ranks

[on:]

I was thinking, since recently, a couple of people got promoted to Spacepope, wouldn't it be better to come up with some new ranks?

For the moment I can't think of any suggestions that would be Futurama-related.

I don't think we need any new ranks just yet, perhaps at 10,000 or later.

[Reply #3 on:]

ok.

Alien Overlord?

Just so mArc can keep a step ahead of Randi . . .

I suggested Earth President 3 months ago, I think I even made a mockup for Torquemada.

How many posts would that require? A gajillion? Oh, wait that's not a number....25000?

[Reply #7 on:]

I'd never want to be a suit, I'd leave PEEL before becoming an Earth President, no offence I think it would be cool if the next rank is at 10,000, but I have a vile feeling it won't be until over double the amount Space Pope took.

I reckon at 8000 you should be Earth President   

Sorry I couldn't help it

Omicronian Warlord?
Deep Space Bender (from Godfellas)?
Being of Unimaginable Horror (who bought the Milky Way off eBay in I Dated A Robot)?

1'000'000 posts - Complete and Utter Nutter.

[Reply #11 on:]

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

15,001 posts = The Elusive Yak-Face

I thought of Mom.  She 's the head of a big company, leader of all robots, and extremely rich. 
On the other hand, everybody hates her and she sucks and I wouldn't want that title.

 

[Reply #13 on:]

Yeah, I wouldn't wanna be Mom.

[Reply #14 on:]

I'd rather be Earth President than Mom!

I think we all would   

[Reply #16 on:]

How about some ranks in between, like "captain 's assistant" (Kif) before starship captain.

[Reply #17 on:]

nawww can't have more lower ranks - people like me would be seriously jipped and would never get the chance to be it! 

[Reply #18 on:]

Well...you could just start all over again...if it means that much to you 

I woke up in the middle of the night, screaming and urinating and screaming. I realized I missed being a Poppler.

[Reply #19 on:]

I don't think new lower ranks are a good idea, I like how they are well spread out, the rank structure is perfect as it is 

[Reply #20 on:]

Maybe I need to rephrase that.

I meant ranks in between, not only under captain, but also between the higher ranks.

But now I see how you feel about it.

I agree, they are pretty cool, but I'm probably biased because I'm a Space Pope

[Reply #22 on:]

Space Popes are a dime a dozen these days, while Urban Legend strenghtens it's aura of coolness with each passing day. 

The gap between ranks is almost perfect. the only place you maybe, maybe, could stick a new rank is between UL and Space Pope. The spread between the rest is good.

I think they should stick another rank in at 4500 posts, I know that would I missed out on it, but I still think it would be cool Other than that, the rank spacing is great, but my opinions might change depending on the gap between Space Pope and the next rank.

[Reply #24 on:]

I think we should see "Pure Energy" as a rank. Or maybe "Pharaoh"

[Reply #25 on:]

I still like 'Space Cow', 'Hyper-nerd' or my personal favorite for the rank you get for 15,000 posts, 'Pathetic'.

[Reply #26 on:]

'Space Cow' makes me think of 'Space Cowboy', which would also be a cool title.

I'm with Ben on this one. After all, you've "earned" it at 15,000 posts.

 

[Reply #28 on:]

we should have a rank higher than DOOP secretaty like, DOOP president or earth president or Omicron Percei 8 leader or talking galaxy (is it right to call it God?)

[Reply #29 on:]

But no-one's reached that far. The new ranks are normally decided by [-mArc-] in secret when a poster approaches a nice number (Say 15,000 posts).

With you at the top and everyone else beneath you.

Here here! I totally agree with Otis. And this is not, however, only because I'm at roughly 4000 posts already. It's because I want to be the first person to get the new rank!

I disagree with Margarita, I think it's a good idea, but it does seem too close to Starship Captain.

Don't get too frustrated; you're doing it the right way.
