The Rating System

The more posts you contribute to the forum, the more stars you get. As you progress, it seems you get a new title as well. You begin as a 'Newbie' and then move up to 'Getting There'. That part is fair enough. However, after that you become an 'Old Hand' and then move up to the auspicious title of 'Pensioner'. What comes after that, 'Decrepid Geriatric who can no longer control his bodily functions and shits his pants at least once a day?'.
I feel that the titles should improve as you progress through the ranks, rather than getting worse and worse the more you post.
Level 1: Punk
Level 2: Thug
Level 3: Bad-Ass
Level 4: Ninja
Level 5: Silent Assassin

You could also have coloured belts as various martial arts disciplines have (white, yellow, purple, brown, black, for example). Other kickass suggestions would be welcome.
Admin, do you think it's cool to call people 'Old Hand' or 'Pensioner'? I don't.

Point taken Mr Bert. Always willing to listen and changes have been made.

Thnx.

Thankyou Admin. I can already see the results of my suggestion. You are truly the proverbial 'man'.

Snowflake is now a 'Silent Assassin'. I am deeply jealous and would give him a reputation point if I could.

Well, I am not very quiet now, am I??? 

No, I suppose not. It is, however, a kick-ass name.

I shall continue posting sporadically to remain the punk that i am for as long as possible

How about Jedi Knight as the top dog?

You are sending out the wrong signals here... 

It's for all the extra work I have to do!

It's good to be on top of the mountain huh??? 

I suppose it's fair enough that Admin gets to choose the top name. It's his 'hood after all.

I honestly don't care about the top name, but he should post more to deserve it... at what number of posts does it change? How many posts for each level? Care to let us know Admin? 

Its Admins ball snowy, if you dont play by his rules he'll take his ball home then you cant play with it.

Snowy's playing with Admin's balls? What again?

Also, there should be more levels... after all we already have one user who's hit the top! What incentive could he possibly have to keep posting??

My incentive would be too piss all of you off... NOPE... There should be more levels..

I have reached the top... BUHU... time for me to lie down and die... 

You gotta a way to go Snowy.

I'd rather be a 'Darth Something' than Jedi Knight. Perhaps 'Darth Salamander'
