I'm a moisture farmer - neat! How many levels are there? What are they?

SirSteve and I thought about that for a while, and we have several more levels than the last system (I think a total of 5, but I'm not sure exactly), but I think Steve wants you folks to discover them for yourselves. Plus, there's gonna be a perk or two after certain ranks are achieved.

Whatever they are, I'm sure they're great!

I'm guessing my dream of being promoted to Sith Lord will never be realized then?

So I've slogged my way to finally becoming Jedi Master in the Old Forum and now I have to start all over again and instead of Padawan, I'm now moisture farmer.

But that's kinda cool cos the next stage, I may be - Tusken Raider? then, Ponda Baba. 3rd stage Gamorrean Guard, 4th Weequay and finally, the great Jabba the banana!! :eek:

Can't wait to find out :)

My inside sources at SSG say here are the five ranking levels:

Moisture Farmer
Jedi Council Member
Supreme Chancellor
Midichlorian
Spirit of Jedi

:D

I think the ultimate level to obtain would be.....






Ready????














LANDO!!!!!!!!!!!


I would post 500 times a day if I could make the Lando rank.

QLD, you'd have to be "Baron Administrator," "Ladies Man," "Colt 45 Promoter," or "Rebel General." Lando's a name, not a title (or a system :) ). But maybe that's a "hidden gem" in the rankings; that you'd get to pick your own level! (Drool...)

p.s. I hope my signature shows up this time.

BTW, padding you're posts doesn't work. I tried last night and they pulled my entire thread.:(

I keep trying to get my sig line to show up (I'm not using quotation marks and I don't think it's too long), but it won't. :( I have updated my profile several times.

I'll try it yet again.

BCJ III, don't click on Submit Modifications button just click on Save in the Edit Signature section.

I had this problem last night.

Hmm, I may have built up hopes a little too high. The ranks will follow the Jedi code once you've moved up from Moisture Farmer. As for multiple paths, those are not possible... yet. :cool:

Post padding does indeed make us very unhappy, so play nice and a few rewards may come your way (I am not sure what the 2nd reward is, I only know the first is a custom-uploaded avatar of your choosing).

Barada, thank you so much for mentioning that, it's come up a few times today and I really appreciate you spreading the word. :)

For starters, padding posts will do you no good. We'll just delete them and each time your post is deleted, it takes away 1 post count. Too many deleted posts within a certain amount of time will automatically suspend your account. So beware...

As for the ranks... that's a secret. We are working on making a 2nd tier rank so you can take the dark side. I can tell you that "Super Moderator" is not a rank you can get by making posts. Also, over the next month or so, we will be on the lookout for those responsible enough to handle the moderator position for each category.

Have fun and enjoy the new forums!

Wow! this is really cool. Levelling off all the rankings and post counts put the cat out of it's misery! :P Still lots to get my head round but the new features are neat. Love the size and color features.
So is the old forum system still active and readable for reference? Has some already asked that? Haven't found it if they have.
Only drawback for me is that this new system takes a little longer to download. But I don't mind that. Thanks guys :)

Thanks for the advice, bigbarada and Sir Steve. Weird thing is that now my signature shows up in ALL my old psots here. Jargo, ahem, EMPEROR Jargo, I have found that one can view the threads but not post.

I'm crying right now. And you know why, methinks.

It is cool for the new forums and that we will have to get our rankings up again, but i do miss being a Jedi Council Member. :(

BenQuad

Your right Evenflow...... I spent what seemed to be an eternity becoming a jedi master.

(Hey I just don't post that much - doesn't mean I don't read the posts though).

Nice though, starting again - maybe I'll contribute just that little bit more.

Gotta start somewhere.

Jargo, the old forums are up for reference in their old location. They cannot be posted to, but they can be read.

Bel-Cam, if you want to have individual sig-lines for each post, just put them in by hand instead of using the signature system. The sig-line system updates all your posts the same way the avatar system updates all your avatars. This is so the actual post doesn't have to carry as much of the data, it can simply source this data from your current files instead of having to hang onto that stuff.

As for the Padawan level, the post count on that may change.

You guys are gonna be busy at SSG. I have to add in my own appreciation for the extra effort this seems to need.

JT,How long will the old SSG forums be still veiwable for? Will they remain open for ever or will be shut down within a few weeks?

QLD
08-17-2001, 02:31 AM
what if I don't wanna be a jedi or dark jedi? Can't I be a smuggler? Or a senato, or another career? I still think Lando should be the Supreme ranking though,

I was only kidding SirSteve. I know super moderator isn't a possible rank :)

We're working on a multi-path rank system, but no guarantees yet that it'll work.

I was told the archives are permanent.

I am new here.This site looks so interesting.Tell me more about this site.

It's a place for Star Wars gooks and the like to chat about how "big" there collection is, and make jokes about slickers mom.

There is also a section where you can speculate on the events in the upcoming Star Wars movie "The revenge of the Sith".
