Xen, might I give you some friendly advice? Keep this kind of information to yourself - the last bloke who openly admitted spamming for ranks (may have even been Rikard on that link I provided) lost 1000 posts off his post count. You don't want to go back to the Iron Throne again mate. :D

And Mel, language please. Thank you. [img]smile.gif[/img]
</font>[/QUOTE]Sure thing Memnoch. I had a little chat with Cloudbringer about it and we settled it. She gave me some good advices.

Pirengle 09-17-2004 03:15 PM

I'm not a moderator. I can only make a stand as a poster who has access to a decent image editing program. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Dron_Cah told me that it's now 300 posts as Quintesson. I'm still going to try to get rid of that avatar as fast as I can. Three hundred posts in one week? Even Xen will bow to the Spammaster.

EDIT: Just read Memnoch and Xen's exchange. :D I only post regularly on two boards at Ironworks. I wonder what will happen if I post regularly on, say twnety boards. ;)

Well, Pirengle, I had Quintesson, for probably 2 weeks, I think. You tell me. :D (though, I refrained from using the CE forum, except for a very rare post. That would be a very easy way to do it in a week, along with the others.) ;)

Hivetyrant 09-18-2004 09:46 AM

OMG Ziroc Double Posted!!!!! call a moderator now :D

Oh and Wellard, are you bieng serious??? I think the person who inspired this thread has posted in it already, look about 6 posts up, im not trying to name names or anything [img]tongue.gif[/img]

johnny 09-18-2004 09:50 AM

I think my avatar is unique, i haven't seen anyone else with the same one. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Cloudbringer 09-18-2004 09:54 AM

Sigmar...uh lots of us had heard of RA! LOL Anyone who's ever read up on Egypt or seen a television documentar on mummies, the pyramids or ancient Egyptian society has most likely had a passing acquaintance with the name. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I like the Egyptian gods avatars! Quintesson and Scaredy Aphophis...well, let's just say I had less positive reactions to those! [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img]

Timber has it, and earned it on CE. That's some hardship posting.

johnny 09-18-2004 10:26 AM

I stand corrected, but like i said, I didn't see anyone else with the same avatar. There may be a hundred others, but that wouldn't be the only thing i overlook. :D

Sigmar 09-18-2004 11:03 AM

I think mods oughta get Johnny's and Timber's Hammer Avatar, looks pretty nifty, and those dull hammers the mods have are SO past their sell by date. :D

Hivetyrant 09-18-2004 11:05 AM

I think a powerfull god like person with lightning raining down on the newbies would look cool for the Mods.

Sigmar 09-18-2004 11:09 AM

...like Zeus. :D

You could replace the newbies with...trolls.

Y'know, to maintain political correctness.

Edit-Come to think about it, I can't remember the last time there was a troll on IW, seriously, I'm not exaggerating! :D

There are sure to be trolls a plenty now. :D

SecretMaster 09-18-2004 02:33 PM

I remember the Emerald Dragon. I still shudder to think about how long that took to get out.

Cloudbringer 09-18-2004 03:04 PM

Zeus, huh? That'd mean we'd all have thunderbolts. ;)

Attalus 09-18-2004 03:13 PM

You already have thunderbolts, Cloudy. Anyway, Memnoch has his genie, and his hammer gif. that's pretty threatening. [img]graemlins/lightning.gif[/img]

Sigmar 09-18-2004 03:25 PM

Nothing like "good ol' fire in the sky" to put the fear of God in a simple forumite! :D

Still admit it guys, those dull egg-shell cracking hammers have gotta go!

Does it strike anyone as odd that most of the mods have the highest post counts in Ironworks? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I was wondering about it for quite sometime. Any mods care to explain this "phenomenon" and probably sharing a few hints and tips of obtaining such thing as well? [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

OK i'm not the sharpest tool in the shed [img]graemlins/whackya.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

But if it was not obvious to me, would it be to subtle for him [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

Dave_the_quack 09-19-2004 08:25 AM

I wouldnt mind the quintesson avatar for a while... if it meant that I could jump to it from Manshoon [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Where can I find out what the heck all the avatars mean/are/other stuff?

Stratos 09-19-2004 08:35 AM

Dave, click on the Rules and Regulations button at the top of the page. There's an description of most of the avatars there.

Thanks buddy... I knew about this though. What I was getting at is I have no idea what a "magister" is, or a "manshoon" lol. I guess Im Forgotten Realms retarded... Or wherever most of these avatars come from :D

RoSs_bg2_rox 09-19-2004 09:13 AM

Well, maybe I'm just stupid, but I don't think that Ma'at - Goddess of Truth & Justice or Scared Apophis,is a forgotten realms character! :D

eg, The Magister
Or Manshoon

That's okay, J/BB -- I just got it the other day, so you wouldn't have noticed yet anyway.

Dron_Cah 09-19-2004 03:36 PM

Hmm, you guys have a good point. Do I get a cookie for knowing??

Also, you said that the names ar elinks, in our own title, or in the rules and regulations listing?
