As you all might have noticed, everyone's ranks on the forums have changed. This is due to the fact that our forums have now adopted a new ranking system more in line with the theme of Forge of Empires. Our inspiration has been sourced from this excellent entry by @ravensky23 in a competition which occurred a long while ago (around four years ago, to be precise).
The reasons for changing our ranks are two-fold. Firstly, we have received many complaints from players throughout the years that they weren't satisfied with the military-style titles, we personally weren't happy with it too. The second reason is that we wanted to create something which was unique to beta and befitted our server. The result, after much discussion and deliberation, is a system that combines the better aspects of the original entry and our (now) former system in a logical hierarchy.
Presented in the spoiler below is the new ranking system, along with the number of posts required to secure the next rank:
Rank | Number of Posts |
Farmer | 0 |
Merchant | 30 |
Steward | 70 |
Squire | 100 |
Marquis | 175 |
Baronet | 250 |
Viceroy | 500 |
Regent | 750 |
Emperor | 1000 |
Overlord | 2000 |
Legend | 3000 |
Just for the sake of reference here is the erstwhile ranking system:
Rank | Number of Posts |
Private | 0 |
Corporal | 5 |
Master Corporal | 15 |
Sergeant | 30 |
Warrant Officer | 50 |
Chief Warrant Officer | 75 |
Second Lieutenant | 110 |
Lieutenant | 150 |
Captain | 200 |
Major | 250 |
Lieutenant Colonel | 300 |
Brigadier-General | 360 |
Major-General | 420 |
Lieutenant-General | 480 |
General | 580 |
Monarch | 700 |
Tsar | 900 |
Emperor | 1350 |
Overlord | 2000 |
Legend | 3000 |
We hope you find this to be a refreshing and welcome change on the forums. As always, if you wish to drop feedback, have questions or want to constructively discuss the change, go here.
