Question About Our Profiles here on AP

Postby Tactical Church » Sun Nov 21, 2010 11:24 pm

Hey so me and my fiance' were searching the threads and she, with her brilliant mind, noticed that there are 5 little icons underneath everyones names and some have 2 of them filled in and some have all 5 filled in with little red icons. I was curious what this is all about. I noticed it seems like some sort of ranking system.
Mind helping me understand that all?

thanks

If ur confused about what im talking about. look at my name and under it are 5 little boxes. if you put your cursor over it it will say Cannon Fodder. Haha.

I'm guessing when your number of posts get to a certain number then you get another box filled in. They look like the Americas Army game logo...

It's a rank system based on awesomeness...


Actually, it's just a symbolic relation of post count.

It is a post count and after investing lots of my boredom I believe is goes.

1-100posts
2-500posts
3-1000posts
4-2000posts
5-3000posts
Kick me. I go "Moooooooo!!!!!"

There used to be rank names associated with them as well, they are now hidden. You can see the names if you hover your mouse over the rank.

Mine reset when I found and activated my original account...I love being "fodder."
I do hope that after all this discreditable shuffling we may be taken into action. It has a wonderful way of reconciling a man with himself: and with everybody else, sometimes. - 1st Lt. James Dillon
