Hey, I just discovered a way that you get get this BB to say that you have made a huge number of Posts. If you delete a post, then the tally doesn't add -1 post, it remains the same. So, you could make a dummy post and then delete it right away. The post wouldn't exist on the BB, but your total number of Posts would increase by one. Just do this as many times as you want, and you could have as many Posts as you want. Personnaly, I would never do this. I discovered it when I made an accidental double post and then deleted it.

Re: # of Posts
yeah, that would be a little shady. You probably shouldn't have said that as someone is bound to try that soon.

Re: # of Posts
my god, what if there were even MORE generals around here, and i was no longer prestigious? oh wait, im already so non-prestigious that people have voted me so low that my stars dont show up. while you are working on ways for people to get themselves promoted on this board, do you have any idea how i can get myself DEMOTED? well, short of getting myself Banned or re-registering?

Re: # of Posts
just gave you the 5 star treatment.
I guess giving a one star would be a face wash.

There are profile settings that can control whether your stars appear and maybe whether your rank appears. I haven't looked lately. It's not all that important to me.
