I believe that the whole Ancients thing is my fault. 
I was the first one to use that term. (I am 25, by the way)
The reason behind it was not a show of power.
It was to bring out into the open the ones that were members of this board BEFORE BGII.
It had nothing to do with how many posts a person has, or whether they were from the blue-board days.
Only those that were pre-BGII were considered "by me" an ancient.
It was not used to elevate myself above others, but only used as a sort of counting device used to mark those that found their way here long ago, and have made residence on the board.
I hope I have sufficiently made my self clear on this.
Nobody can attain the title of Ancient except for the ones that are already known as one.
In previous posts, we have identified each one.
It is a clan, of sorts.
As the Order of the Holy Flame, or the Laughing Hyenas, or other groups are titled as clans, I wanted to make a sort of clan using an original idea.
Anyone who challenges the existance of the Ancients clan must also challenge the OHF, or Laughing Hyenas, which many of you are a member of.
As somebody mentioned earlier in another post, these clans will be finally put to use when NWN or another multi-player game module is released.
