Title: Custom Titles
Post by: Silver Night on 17 Apr 2010, 21:37
The little post-count related ones. We could go with an Eve theme?

Podling, Rifter Pilot,..., Vindicator pilot, Avatar pilot (for the biggest e-peen). Something along those lines. Something more thematic than 'Newbie, Jr Member, etc' in any case?

Fank yew. Someone suggested crowbaring in pod-captain or pot-captain or pothead or something, but I'm not sure we have enough rank slots, so I went with the more colorful ones.

Egger is derogatory, pod captain is almost respectful.

...Hee.

I'm stealing that for ingame use, as a threat.

"Hey, why arentcha undocking? Can't mane an omelette without crackin' open a few eggs, y'know."

Post by: Havohej on 18 Apr 2010, 13:30
lol replacing Rookie with Omelette because yeah!
Title: Re: Custom Titles
Post by: Ashar Kor-Azor on 18 Apr 2010, 14:15
WTF. The omelette comes before the egg?

I might suggest stepping down wetgraver to 25 or so and decrementing the rest appropriately, but yeah, egger goes before omelette. Or do you never cook, you lazy starveling gamer? :P

My logic (such as it is) was that inexperienced eggers get podded more often   :lol:

Nah, this is like Rote Kapelle's medals for getting podded in stupid ways, see.

A newbie will be scared and hide more, but as they get more confidence, they'll hit a phase where they lose ships and pods a lot more on the way to becoming a veteran.
