Does someone know how many posts i need to advance from the annoying "settler"...

July 22, 2000, 15:55

and how can i count my previous ones.

SandMonkey · July 22, 2000, 15:59

I think you need about 30. Or maybe it's 50? In any case, to se how many posts you have, just click on your "profile" button. As of when i looked it said you had 16 posts.

At the top of this page under the Apolyton logo are some links. Click on the faq link and find what you were looking for.

Ming · July 22, 2000, 20:51

Just click on the profile icon that appears above every one of your posts, and it will show you how many posts you currently have

Sheez.. what is the importance of the title?

Since my registration (somewhere before 15-2-1999!) I have followed the posts on these boards and posted a couple of things.

But I don't care what my title says.. I'm in here for the fun and not, like you maybe, for the ranking..

Its probably because you are still young and I'm ehrm.. older

But I'll try to follow you from now.. it might be fun to watch you 'grow' into a high-ranking poster in time... good luck!

Ming,

What profile icon do you mean????

Shaka Naldur · July 26, 2000, 07:06

don´t answer

I found the icon

Ming · July 26, 2000, 07:20

For those that still don't know where to look...

The FAQ will tell you the levels you need for each level. You can read it by clicking on the FAQ initials that appear on the individual summary pages in the upper right hand corner... or in the upper left corner when you are in a any thread.

To see how many posts you have just click on the profile icon that appears above any of your posts.

Just curious, what does "Disablement for X Weeks" mean? I personally don't care if my title is Peon, but jI ust don't quite understand the gist of that penalty. It could mean if you don't post at least once in that time frame or is could refer to a suspension of posting priveledges and the FAQ is not clear as to which. Thanks!

Sorry double post

If you misbehave (spam, flame, insult other apolytoners, etc) you will be banned for some time: on that occasion you would ALSO a get post-count reduction.

Spammer!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

how many newbies will there be asking that question?

including me

Empress · July 27, 2000, 22:31

Did somebody say SPAM??

Dr.Oogkloot · July 29, 2000, 19:03

Why on earth would you want to be a Chieftain instead of a Settler? Chieftain sounds so primitive! I'm trying to put off being a Chieftain for as long as possible by making my posts fairly long (not this one though).

Shouldn't that be NON settler

D'OH!!!
I'll change it.

Edit: no wait I won't change it... it still says NONE instead of NON in the window on the right in civ2 (where you can see the full name of the city it's from) (and in some other places too), right? So why can't I call it a NONE-Settler? If you have a settler from Rome, why should you call it a Rom-settler instead of a Rome-settler?

Well, I'm over the 300 mark — the minimum needed for the "Prince" level — and am still a "Warlord." **shrug** Eh, guess that's life.

BuilderR, et al.:

Huh. Now it says I'm a "Prince." Guess that means I can down a celebratory diet Mountain Dew after all.

SCG · July 31, 2000, 08:29

I noticed that too CYBERAmazon. When I first broke the threshhold of warlord, it still said chieftan on the post, and then it changed a couple minutes later. O well, it will be a while yet before I am granted land and title by the King and made prince

O well, at least I'm still more proud about running the Clarksburg 10K race in under 51 minutes than I am of being a warlord - guess there's hope for me yet

SCG: darn, I've never really got the hang of that tribute thing, guess it will be a long time until i make prince

I just clicked on Ming's profile and he has passed the 10,000 message milestone. Congratulations! Now I'll have to check RAH.

rah · July 31, 2000, 08:59

Sorry, only 1831 posts and still only a King.

This is over the same amount of time as Ming.

I'm sure if I was a moderator I'd have more.

I will never be accused of spamming.

Someday I will make the next level.
