As you probably already noticed. The number of points accumulated to your forum profile adds up to a displayed "rank". The ranks are currently:
However we would be happy to revise the rank titles. Please post your suggestions in this thread and we (the development team) will consult our moderators for a decision.
Edit: TheWicked
Update: Pic
0 + 50 = 50 -> Fresh Zombie Meat 1 Blue Square
+ 75 = 125 -> [Rookie Survivor] 2 Blue Squares
+ 100 = 225 -> [Advanced Survivalist] 3 Blue Squares
+ 125 = 350 -> [Experienced Survivalist] 4 Blue Squares
+ 150 = 500 -> [Professional Survivalist] 5 Blue Squares
+ 175 = 675 -> 42 6 Blue Squares
+ 200 = 875 -> [-Rookie Zombie Slayer-] 1 Red Square
+ 225 = 1100 -> [-Zombie Slayer-] 2 Red Squares
+ 250 = 1350 -> [-Advanced Zombie Slayer-] 3 Red Squares
+ 275 = 1625 -> [-Experienced Zombie Slayer-] 4 Red Squares
+ 300 = 1925 -> [-Professional Zombie Slayer-] 5 Red Squares
+ 325 = 2250 -> [=Chicago Ted=] 6 Red Squares
The golden star should be only for the Dev Team, and not achieveable by others (this means normal users and also include moderators).

What does "max point" imply? also, im very happy with the forum titles, that might be because i love forums and have a very high post-per-day rate  |

woah, we can become star status? 0.o super cool. I've wondered why its 1/5 stars though. not 5/5 stars or just simply a Star as the bar thing. |

LoL @ Carl...

Because one red star is more decent. and it looks better...
this could be some quotes: "Whoa, how did he get one of those..." instead of "aha... he got six stars... must be easy to get one of those..."

....I guess I can't count. I've looked at that thing and counted 6 but the 5/5 star system is so ingrained in my brain! Regardless its cool. Edit: whoa check out my rank again!  This could be a interesting thing to possibly fix? Its not that big of a deal though Edit, Edit: So this is what happens at max points?  |

So this is what happens at max points?
you only have a rank until [MAXPOINTS - 1]. if [MAXPOINTS == MINPOINTS.NextLevel] you'll get next level...
in words if maxpoints equals minpoints (from next level) you'll get next the level
before it was that maxpoints was 50 and next lvl minpoint was 51 so you got no rank if you had 50 posts... the formular is explained above..
Please don't ask why is it this way...
EDIT:
{
Just noticed that if i edit your (admin) post that your post count goes up... but it appears that only the first post of a topic counts if i edit it. mine didn't went up after i edited this post (2 times now)
}

Yeah I added that as Carl suggested.
So the other coloured stars are alright? Only gold for Admins?
Front page updated take a look. |

Yeah but i think squares look better than these colored stars...
And Yes, I thought that the golden star is only for the Dev-Team |

Maybe the Dev team/ mods could have a Cool Red star? The badass rank icon also implies that there will be like 5 other ranks after it. |

I think that one star looks better than 5, and the devs had a red star before, but I've changed it to a gold star because i think that it looks better. |

I definitely agree 1 star looks better than 5. I just said that the 1 red block out of 6 makes it seem like there should be more red blocks afterword, just following the blue block system. Maybe the badass rank should have a full set of red blocks instead? |

I plan on increasing the required number of post count to get to the "New Coloured" bar.
@Wicked
We just need more new titles for the "New Coloured" bar. |

Maybe make it 50 points step instead of 25 as i did.
instead of 50 + 75 + 100 + 125... and so on 50 + 100 + 150 + 200 ? |

I want to make getting ranks progressively harder.
I plan on making the minimum requiremant for the New Colour at least 200 to 300, to reach the second box.Also feel free to change the values. |

Ha, I lol'ed seeing Carl as Newb zombie slayer. Made my day.  I think that badass should be the full red squares. There needs to be a Red rank to mirror Fresh Zombie meat blue rank, or something like that to make it more even. Gotta find a way to smooth it out... I can't think of anything right now. The gold star is now pretty much unobtainable..... Even admin does'nt have it! EDIT: Oh and a different 6th blue square title. I kinda want to take back what I said about the mirroring the fresh meat rank for Red. Start the Red at Zombie slayer. That then gives the problem of badass being a 5th still or finding another rank to be the 5th Red square rank....  |
