More new ranks! - Page 5

Sir Byronas · 11-23-2001, 11:35 AM

Ziroc, could you create Greek ranks?

Melusine · 11-23-2001, 12:06 PM

OK, from these last few pages it becomes clear that Ziroc never could make everybody happy; that if he added Thor, people would be asking about Loke, if he added Zeus, about Artemis, if he added the complete Greek and Norse pantheons, people would demand the Sumerian, Aztec, Maya or Zulu gods...

I for one love the new ranks (look how many he *did* add, Osiris, Set, etc.) and though I wouldn't mind seeing new ones, I definitely think he's doing a great job already with all the new extras like sticky threads. I think you're all just making suggestions for fun, and that you all agree the ranks are great as they are already, so I'm just posting this so Ziroc won't think we're complaining.

Nope, these poor creatures are generally afflicted with a strange condition which causes them to fall victim to the dreaded " Spammingforranksitis". This is often thought to be a mutated form of a little known and now extinct disease, a symptom of which was the sufferer's horror of something called "Stone Golem Hell"

Nowadays, these conditions can generally be cured by intensive therapy, strong drugs and a long period of rest and recuperation. Oh, and the removal of post counts, severe warnings and temporary bannings sometimes works as well
