	With the new conquests titles........ Support Apolyton, buy Civilization: The Boardgame

I'm absolutely sure that this has been discussed before, but since I have been LOA for the past couple of months I'm sure it's 100% legitime for me to raise the question again!

Now civ3conquests has new titles (demi-god / sid), why don't we apply them to poly as well?
Say, 6000 posts = demi-god / 25000 posts = sid....?

all those deities must have a goal to live for as well...

The forum software cannot handle any more titles automatically. So mods would have to change the higher-order titles by hand.

Meh...

We can get rid of the Settler or Warlord level then.

I think a "Spammer" title would be excellent

I'd rather die than be a "Sid". What a lame title.

I don't see the point in differentiating between, what, below and above just 50 posts?

No way should we get rid of the lower-level titles.
These are immediate rewards for posting on the site, and when you are first starting out here 30 and 100 posts are difficult to achieve. Newbies are people too.

30 and 100 posts are not hard to achieve when you've just 'arrived'... there's just soo many threads waiting for new people to post in

The only people with below 100 posts are the ones who registered many years ago, but 'forgot' to login...

Yeah I don't think removing the early levels is a good idea.

Theoretically, if he changed the text in the red part to 'admin' do you think the admins would mind?

I would bet on that one in the affirmative.

It must be possible to alter the title script so that it can contain more titles. If it's not possible the forum is created in a crap-langauge.

And pherhaps Sid is indeed an ugly title. Wat if we change it into "Sith"....

Or how about changing it to unit names from Civ, based on the time they 'arrive' in the game: Warrior --> Swordman --> TimeToPlayCivIdon'tRememberTheNextOfThisType

If they were to be implemented, clearly Demigod should go before Deity.

@ADG: It's Warrior->Swordsman->Medieval Infantry->Guerilla->TOW Infantry.

But it would in that case be better simply to take a sequence of units in approximate order of mightiness, since that line goes from top attackers (Swordsman) to lousy consolation prizes for the resourcically deprived (Guerilla).

But I like the difficulty level titles.

I prefer the difficulty level titles too... the other thing just popped into my mind... and since I know most (if not all) posters thinks it's a bad idea, the chances of it being changed to this is extremely small

That'd be perfect for the highest level. SPammers would actively attempt to stay away from it.
