Oh dear. I hope GNT doesn't see this or he might be likely to run another 10,000 post campaign around here! ;D
Maybe the top spot could be something even a little more exciting, like Yoda...?
-
I was thinking the same thing, so that makes two of us. Will change.
-
Ohhh, A Yoda. 8)
Now I have somthing to strive for since the ranking changed. ;D
I just have to get back to Council Member. :)
Sorry, now Senior Council Member. (http://adwoff.com/ubb/graemlins/bangin.gif)

I can't believe it got changed. :o

What's the difference between a Senior Council Member, and the other Jedi Council Members? There's only 12 Jedi Council Members altogether, so I think just plain ol' Jedi Council Member should suffice, especially since we've now created a ranking for the most senior of all the Jedi Council Members - Yoda.
Now if Dale (DSJ) would just hurry up a little and attain that Yoda status, we could have him duel that evil Emperor running loose over at RS... ;D
-
;D cool ranks :)
much like our own...

1200. Only 8800 to go & look out GNT. ;D

Let's see... I've got a billion to go. ???

mmh... got to break GNT's record of 300 in 48 hours ;D

Very sweet! I like the different rank icons now up, instead of the stars... good job! :P
-
Glad you like it, James, I haven't seem my mod thing yet, but I will as soon as I post...
-
I was wondering why the heck I suddenly had a lightsabre! You people and your tinkering. ;)
-
Uh, from 50-99 would be what? ;D
Hmm, maybe I shouldn't irritate you, lest JediMac impose another sabbatical on me.
gotta run

Good idea. I'd hate to have to ban you two weeks in a row Brent! Now go play nice with the other "kids", and put your damned calculator away (while I go fix that tiny little oversight ;))!
-
I think Bob and Dale are both working. Night Owls.
Presumably those are the kids you speak of. Junior.

Now behave, I have my eye on you & you too. :P
-
not ba, tough a real saber glow would be more better ;)
-
As a gif, which gives the saber its shape, it loses its glow. Before it was a gif, I had the saber as a jpg, where it had a white background, but still the lightsaber glow was present.
Losing the white background also meant losing the glow. I'm not working on that issue now, because I worked on the sabers until I hate them. I may try to fix the issue one day, but that day isnt in the near future.
-
DSJ, nice to see you again. Did you leave Rebelscum entirely? I haven't seen you in a while.
-
Hey Chewbacca, greetings. :) I haven't left RS entirely, I pop in from time to time. ;)
-
i ve been registed for one day ive sent 30 messages
-
What's your point Jake? Making the amount of posts that you have in such a short period of time is nothing to brag about. Please try to post something with a little more content, instead of a bunch of random one-liners about nothing.
I believe you may have a Private Message or e-mail as well. Please read it. Thanks.
-
Hey, I just noticed something really cool.
It's been over a year since I was banned (temporarily) from this site. Hah. Matt's getting senile and losing his edge :-*
-
I'm glad we unbanned you - actually - I never knew why you were banned... What'd you do? Act normal?
-
Matt never told me. Just a cryptic email saying go away for a while ;) You'll have to ask him, as he really seems to dislike me :P
-
Yes, it has been about 1 month and a half since I have been banned or unbanned!
I was banned for punctuation and grammar and then having private conversations on the threads. Also some folks were complaining to Chris said? Oh well, but I am back and that is all that matters.
Although I did learn not to have ongoing conversations on the threads! ;D
-
Matt never told me. Just a cryptic email saying go away for a while ;)
He sends those off pretty frequently, actually.
-
Never been banned, but I did get my ass thrown out of here once.
:)
-
I'm a little chagrined to see that so many are banned from this forum. I thought this place regarded itself as the antiScum.
-

well, when you compare the numbers to those "other" sites, i think we have less people banned than anyone else. besides, some people came here with no other purpose but to look for trouble, and i guess they found it.
-
I'd say most of those banned here were well deserving.
I miss SmileyFaceGuy - he's disapeared. :'(

Huh?! Are you referring to the small handful of people from our Member List, or Morgbug and Mainland from several posts back?
Chewbacca - what makes JD different from RS, is that we have zero tolerance for people who come over here just to start $h!t, of which we've had several from Rebelscum. Whereas Scum would just let their bad behavior slide, resulting in flame wars and disgruntled forum members, we usually give the offending member one firm warning if they're lucky, and if they keep it up, they're TOAST. We don't screw around with idiots here, especially trolls. So in that respect, we are very much the "anti-scum" that you just mentioned.
If you were referring to Morgbug and Mainland, the whole Morgbug "banning" is just a running joke here. Brent was never banned. When I personally invited him over here to JD, we had some big whacky problems with his login and password, that kept Brent from being able to access the site for about 5 days. We all joked with him that he was banned. Inside joke. That's all it was, and will continue to be. He never was banned, and is actually one of our closest buddies around the JD forum here. 8)
As for Mainland, he wasn't banned either. He was suspended for about a week however, for basically turning our forums into his personal chatroom. We asked him a few times to stop with the random chatty one-liners, and he didn't, so we suspended him briefly. Only time we've ever done that. He's returned, and isn't "chatting" on the boards like before, so everything's cool. Again, this is very much an "anti-Scum" practice, since they generally have no problem with people just mindlessly chatting away on their boards. We however prefer quality over quantity here at JD.
Hopefully I've answered whatever your question or issue was, but if not, feel free to PM me or any of the staff! ;)

Yes, I agree.
This forum has definitely gone to sh!t ever since Master Chief was banned. . .

How do I get a red lightsaber?
-
I know a red saber was made, but I don't know if it's avaliable. Sorry.
-
You can't. We're a "Jedi", not Sith, oriented site here. As such, you've gotta stick with the good guys sabers... ;)
We're saving the red one for GNT if he ever decides to participate here! ;D

WOO HOO!!!!!!!
I have a BLUE saber now!!!!
that yellow really was bugging me....
I just wanted to celebrate...
With my being the 666th member I should have a sith saber, but I know that's not allowed....
Okay, that's all... back to your regular messages... :D
-
A Jedi craves not these things... :-*
:P
-
*cough*GNT*cough*
:P j/k of course... That's entirely out of line of me to say.
-
Oh no you didn't, Jess! :o
Wow. You gonna let him get away with that Shannon?! I can point Jesse out to you at C3, if you wanna kick his ass (with your Blue Saber)... Just LMK.
- M
P.S. FWIW, I think those yellow sabers suck too! Congrats on the upgrade... ;)
-
Hah! If you can find me! I'm like a phantom... Stealthy. One minute I'm here, then I'm gone...
Oh who am I kidding, I'll be standing in a single spot in various lines for hours on end I'm afraid. :(
-
Geez... well, what exactly are you implying there Jesse?!?
Am I that irritating?

Man, I hate getting to the party late. I've picked up bits and pieces along the way :(

Let's just say he's likely the most prolific poster in history. A RS success story.
-
There's some dude on spawn.com with about 75,000 posts, so GNT has a long way to go.
Though it's been some time since I've been to RS. Maybe GNT has that many posts now.

What do you think about having a rank somewhere around the 5,000 mark? Seriously, the 2500 people are a little different from the 7000 people, aren'y they? Really? ;)
-
The system was put into place when only that number of title options were available. We are open to adding new ranks that are less spread out.
-
I think those of us with way too much free time should get some awesome flickering asshat graphic to show off how much we post... Like, oh, say, other sites have. :) It really makes me feel accomplished.
-
Have the ranks changed? I'm noticing that people with hundreds of posts still have yellow lightsabers.
-
It's possible. The new administration is tinkerin' and having fun. ;)

15000...24999 = The Chosen One
25000+ = The Spirit Of
-
Oooo! Jedi Council - I love it!
-
I assume each rank/level has its own avatar, could you post those here too?
-
Sure thing. :)
Here they are in order:

I prefer "Administrator" because want the power to choose who lives and who dies ...
-
"Always two there are, a master and an apprentice."
-
I'm still marvelling at the conversation over the new ranks. :) The staff truly seemed to have fun making new ones. They look very, very slick.
Hah, I'm one of the chosen ones... suck it!
-
I think they're a bit large... making them the same size as the avatars is a little busy over on the left. The sabers were nice because they weren't as intrusive. Not a big deal, as the new system is cool, but from an aesthetic point of view, they're oversized IMO.
-
Hmmn...I think you would lose the detail if they were any smaller. What about removing the white space around them to make them circles? That might look a little cleaner and shrink down the space a little.
-
Either that or move them to the right of the avatars? I think they could be reduced by about 20-25% and still keep plenty of the detail.
-
Here's an example - the regular size is 50 pixels square. Here it is reduced to 35 pixels square:
(http://www.megatoothpastemammals.com/JediGeneral.png)
Details are still there, and it's a more manageable size, I think.
-
So, once you get the top rank, spirt of..., you die? ;)
25,000 posts is a mighty hefty score.

Well, you have less detail on your rank. ;)

Does anyone here even have 25,000 posts?

I thought this was interesting. Here's a count of how many current members there are by rank:

Use a better browser... IE sucks. :-*
I really like Google Chrome if you are looking to upgrade. IE apparently has trouble compressing the PNGs (which look much better than GIF files) hence the box that you notice around the badges. It is just one one the many things wrong with the that browser. That box shouldn't be there. All of these have been circles to begin with. Check out the two screenshots attached to my post here. The first is in IE and the second is how it should look (taken in Google Chrome.) This is just one more reason to hate IE. It is the only browesr (that I have heard of) that does this.
We are looking into the issue now to try and fix this for everyone who still uses that ****** browser. :-\

Good thing you closed those tabs of porn before you took the screenshot.
:-X
-
What was that? 'Thumb' man.
-
We are looking into the issue now to try and fix this for everyone who still uses that ****** browser. :-\
The circle "look" definitely looks nice and sharp. I hope you guys can get that issue fixed for all of us dinosaurs stuck with IE. I'm on JD primarily at work so I don't think I could ask for a browser upgrade. Jay made me a new WM avatar awhile back and it suffered from the same problem so I still have it shelved.
-
For what it is worth, everyone should at least be on IE 7 now (IE 8 is the latest). IE 6 really isn't supported much anymore. I run IE7 and everything looks fine. In IE8, if you choose compatibility mode it might fix the "problem."
-
I love the new system! Awesome guys!

Did someone say something about smaller badges? :)

We had decided to try out the 50x50 badges for a day or so to see how they looked. We ultimately decided we liked the 40x40 versions better. We also changed The Spirit Of badge to the OT puppet rather than the CGI version.
They are still in .PSD format. The .GIF format doesn't look good. So those of you with IE 6 had better upgrade your browser (or convince your office to) it is more than dead at this point. Otherwise, get used to the squares, there isn't an easy way for us to make it work for the dead browser.
Google Chrome (http://www.google.com/chrome/index.html?hl=en&brand=CHMI&utm_source=en-et&utm_medium=et&utm_campaign=en)
Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/firefox.html)
;)
-
I see the squares, and honestly they don't bother me at all. I'm not wild about the newer versions of IE, and I don't have any desire to change to a new browser all together... I'll live with the squares, and eventually someday if forced to, I'll have a browser that makes 'em disappear.
Otherwise they're fine to me.
-
I hate the newer versions too, so I stuck with IE 6 long until fairly recently. I didn't even know I hated it until I tried Chrome. Now I'll never go back.

I'm in the same boat as Mike with IE6 at work. We have well over 5,000 employees, so I'm guessing they won't be very responsive to upgrading everyone, so that I don't have to look at the boxes around our forum ranks. ;) Nice to hear that was the original intent though!
-
Thumbs up from me on the new sizes - much better. The only other aesthetic suggestion I have is to place the two Yoda graphics inside circles of the same diameter as the symbols, just to even out the shapes. Otherwise, they might look a bit like a second avatar for those who have them.
Just a suggestion....
-
I still use IE6 & have no problems with the squares. I have Firefox on my laptop but I would have to install a Russian language in order for it to work. :P
-
The white squares aren't as bothersome now that they're at a reduced size so everything looks peachy here at JD! I must admit that it's going to take some time to get used to who's in what "grade" without looking at their post count. Guess I never really paid attention to the sabers because they were so blahhhhh.
I heard nightmare stories back when IE7 was released so I never bothered to upgrade. Had no clue that we're up to IE8 already. :-\
-
Love the new badges guys! Can't wait to become a General!
I just upgraded to IE8 at home. Don't love it, don't hate it... Never tried Firefox or Chrome, so I don't know what I'm missing. Like others, I'm on IE at work. I think we are actually on IE7 now...

How much would ranks change if the Pit didn't exist?

I don't care for it, but the Pit has 27,000 posts... some people love it.

Just an example of someone's stats at JD - no I'm not picking on you. I count 30 posts that were in toy-related threads. Isn't that what this site is primarily geared towards?
-
People can come here for any reason they want.
-
Unless we decide to throw them out of course. >:D

Oh absolutely and as Brad pointed out thar be 27K in there, it's obviously not insignificant.
As for me, only 3% of my posts are in there. ;)

Well, I would have 299 fewer posts to my total if there were no SP to chime in on. That would move me from a securely eestablished 14th most posts to just barely holding on to 14th most posts and my rank would move from Jedi Council to uh...Jedi Council. I can't see the world being much different either way. :-\

What would your rank be if there had never been an Out of Context thread, Justin? ;)

That would shockingly be even less of an impact. No matter how you look at it, I'm way past being a lowly Jedi General. ;)

You may be on the Council, but you do not have voting privledges, oh Chosen One. ;)

How much would ranks change if the Pit didn't exist?
For most people, it doesn't. 8)

More importantly what would their rank be at a site dedicated to their beloved Political Slap Fights if those sites didn't have a Star Wars section... oh wait they don't talk politics at those sites, they come here to ours instead yay. ::)

Well, think of it this way - you're giving the homeless a place to go. ;)

Well, it's good for us because it brings more people to the forums, which is necessary for us to thrive as a community. The pit is definitely not for everyone, but for those that come here specifically for it, we welcome the attendance and we're banking they'll branch into the other discussions as well.

So those of you with IE 6 had better upgrade your browser (or convince your office to) it is more than dead at this point.
My work upgraded to IE7 over the weekend and the rankings look much nicer without the white squared borders. Guess I'll need to make the upgrade at home now - provided I won't have a nightmare. :)

I upgraded to IE8 over the weekend. I like the ranks better, but the alternating blue/gray backgrounds are bugging me now. My screen moves all over when I type a response as well. Booo! >:D

IE8 sucks ass. Hard.
I've been using Google Chrome since then, which I like a lot more, but it seems to have a few bugs in it still. Sometime when I hit the back button, it goes back 2 pages at a time, especially on eBay. :-\

Look at the site in Compatability view and that should fix the problem.

Thanks! How do I do that?

There's a button between the arrow you can use to dropdown your previously viewed sites and the refresh button. It sort of looks like a broken document. If you hover your mouse over it it will say Compaibility View.

Got it. That worked - thanks!

Cool. Glad I could help.

Damn, nothing like going from a Master to an Apprentice in one day... Easy come easy go.
Really loved the badges, but I understand the need for change. Long live the sabers!

You show up as a "Jedi Elder" for me.
Cool new ranks!
