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.

Re: # of Posts
Puke, did you ever ck with Richard to find out why your stars don't show up???, also maybe they should add Brig Gen, Maj Gen, Lt. Gen etc, or maybe Navy ranks since SEIV is a space navy going game.....
just some ideas mac

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.

Re: # of Posts
i did check with Richard, but never got an answer. for some reason, i think he thought i was a wiseass. my profile settings were the first thing i checked, and it has always (still is) set to make my rating publicly viewable.
Whats even WORSE is that for some godawful reason, im up to 2.95 which is rounding to three stars! i guess i will have to use explitives more #$%^ing often so that people will vote me down again. (not like it would make a difference since my rating isnt showing up)
maybe they made it invisible on purpose so they would not be encouraging me.

I was NOT working on ways for people to have self-promotions. I discovered it accidentally. I posted it so that maybe some Shrapnel tech guy will see it and figure out some way to solve it. Maybe deleting a post should lower your # of Posts by 1. Or, maybe you could be allowed to make a free post-deletion once or twice a month, so that people that need to legitimately delete a post can do so.
And Puke, I'll give you a 1 star rating.
