Accessing new weapons

OKay, first of all, I see the people's names that have signed in. Its in a big red box on the left, along with a 3-D weapon of some kind. Sometimes it says 'untrained' or 'trained' or 'lord.' How do I get my rank up here in this forum, and how do I get those kewl weapons, coz my weapon picture looks like the bottom of a pez candy dispenser

 

:minigun: I too considered posting this question as I am new to both the game and the site but it is my belief that this is one of those time related issues or even possibly takes into consideration the amount of questions you post or awnswer, yes I know I didn't awnswer your question I just wanted to jump on your band wagon for I am equally curious as well and the squeakier the wheel the faster it gets oiled.

 

You mean like my ancient blade, or your railroad spike?

It's your 'rank' on the board. The more you post, the more experienced you are considered, and so the better the weapon you get. It's based purely on post-count.

To get a custom avatar, you need to have a post count somewhere between 700-1000 posts. It seems to vary, but most of the time, it's nearer 1000 (only a few exceptions.)

However, if you posts meaningless rubbish in order to just raise your post count, then you become a spammer, with a can of spam icon, like Quethim, and people start to really dislike you. You then have to work really hard and post nothing but useful or meaningful posts in order for people to listen to you, like you, or take you seriously again.

 

Qustion 2

Does posting a reply to something else count?

 

let me see

 

Please don't do that...

And yes, any post counts towards the total.

 

Gah.

You're pushing it, DarkLogic. :wink: . For future use, edit your posts instead of making new ones (unless they're on a completely different speil, which I consider alright), and DON'T SPAM!

 

BTW, am I considered a spammer? I dont mean to. I thought that Quethim had that can of spam because he wanted to have it. But, seriously, do you guys consider me a spammer? Josh - I know you will say yes to this because you hate me for some unknown reason. If it is because of those violent posts earier, I was sorta a newbie then, and I didnt mean it. It was just a joke.
