Those are all great, though none of them really apply to Earl except maybe the last one.

Congratulations on your new rank, Imperialist. Just think... 737 more and you'll be able to choose your own. Wouldn't that be worth it? I'm sure yours will definitely have some thought behind it.

Here are some ranks I've come up with for members with various stances on the board:

Utter Conformist: For those who seem to have absolutely no mind outside of the actions of the majority; who listen to all the popular music, waste their time going to parties like everyone else, think everyone who doesn't like sports is a nerd and uncool, and who show a contempt for anything different;

Timewasting Tosser: Someone who comes onto the board with nothing relevant or worthwhile to say at all and attempts to derail discussions, confuse people and disrupt intelligent discussion. But we do have the SPAMMER rank for people like this;

True Individual: Someone who has proven themselves to be a free-thinker; one who does not care at all for modern trends or being "cool", and is proud in their own thoughts and their personal interests in life and does not let a world full of sheep get to them at all;

SportsSuck.org God: Someone who has reached 5,000 posts, if they've not requested a custom rank or want to have this set as their rank, may have it.

I don't intend for any of these ranks to be used, but I thought I'd use my imagination a bit. Come to think of it, I wonder when exactly a person will get to 5,000 posts on here? I can take a big guess at who it probably will be, if anyone. :D

I the light of the recent Andygate scandal, I just thought of a new forum rank.

BACK STABBER!

They're worse then Sports Bores!

At least you can trust a genuine Sports Bore far more than you can trust a BACK STABBER!

I don't know about the rest of you, but . . .

. . . this is how I feel at the moment.

Sir, are you implying that sports bores know what quality kitchenware is? :lol:

Well the athlebrity royalty get treated as if they were born with silver spoons in their mouths, so maybe that influences the sports bores' choice of cutlery?!! :wink:

I'm sorry about the self-righteous way I used to carry on in the past.

To acknowledge past errors I would like to humbly request the rank of "Reformed Cossack."

If the powers that be like, they can take a while to decide whether I've truly reformed and deserve the rank. :)

Hi, recovering_fan. I have no say over the assignment of rank titles. Skul is the one who does that. Perhaps he wasn't aware of your request. He's even admitted that he doesn't read every single post. So, I shall forward your request to him in a PM. Just remember, he doesn't respond quickly, which is not to be misconstrued as a criticism of him. He's just a very busy guy.

By the way, are you of Russian descent? I was just wondering. :)

No, I'm not actually Russian.

I used to read a lot old Russian novels when I was growing up, which is where my fascination with the country comes from.

Then I picked out this "Baloo" avatar for reasons that had nothing to do with Russia. (I didn't want an avatar that looked weak, but I didn't want one that looked evil, either. Baloo was the only pic that really served my purposes.) I later realised it had the look of a Russian soldier and was even a bear no less, so the temptation to starting referring to myself as "Russian Bear" proved too much to resist. :)
