What are the ranks here? eg I'm a bibliophile - what are the others?

I'm not sure if there is a list anywhere, but from the FAQs:

Your title changes automatically as you make a certain amount of posts. Once you have reached 1000 posts, you can change it to whatever you like (please keep it clean!). Go to User CP, choose Edit Profile, scroll down to the Optional Information and you can change your user title there.

Thanks.:friends0:

I just wanted to know, you see, cuz I've got my own writers forum now, and I wanted some inspiration for ranks:)

There isn't a set list anywhere, I'd rather people discover them as they go along. if you look at what other people have under their names, you'll see some of our choices. However, won't ranks for writers be different to readers?

I suppose; I was just looking for ideas, though.

Thanks

How about different terms for 'writer', so for example:

0-50 posts - Pencil Pusher
50 - 100 posts - Pen Pusher
100-150 posts - Scribe
150 - 200 posts - Stenographer
200 - 300 posts - Screenwriter
300 - 500 posts - Biographer
500 - 1000 posts - Columnist
1000-1500 - Novelist
1500 - 2000 - Playwright
2000 - 5000 - Poet
5000 + Freelancer

(Obviously I don't know how you want to break down the numbers, so the above categories are just random to give the idea!).

Or something like that?

Good one Alice!

Have a look at this site (http://www.writelink.co.uk), which I belong to. We use similar types of descriptions as Maureen just sited.

why Michelle? :)
Because she is the "Boss".

Aw, I just like to give her a rough time. I hope she doesn't take it the wrong way.

I think you are trying to tell me that "I Am Full Of It". :)

Young lady, would you like to explain that. :)

I would go for Nibble a Muggle!
and that from the young lady that doesn't even tell me where to find that good red wine. :)

"Harry Potter rules" ?
Glad to see someone know where my screen name came from.

A good and regular member! ;)
Kell, do you really think Michelle would approve that. :)

Mia , Maureen, Kell, Poppy, and Doctor-Who-Mad-Gal ........
You are nominated to come up with a title for me. Go easy.
poppy

Awww....didn't you like my "Butter wouldn't melt in

my mouth" ? :angel_not:

How about "A gentleman and a scholar" ? :D
Laramie

"Guess what I like reading?"!
"I do have a life...sometimes..."
"I don't spend most of my life here...honest!"
That's all I got so far.
Thank you for nominating me!!:D:mrgreen:

Muggle, I recognise the task as a huge responsibility and will treat it with the seriousness it deserves. ;) I will have to have a proper think later.

How about "A gentleman and a scholar" ? :D

I do like this one though. :D
Kell
24th October 2007, 11:56
Ooh, thanks for the onour! How about Word Wizard (in deference to the muggle reference)?

Oh, but he should get a title that would make you think of a full bodied, red wine - cause that's what he reminds me of!
