I think we should be able to choose the rate things like a american eagle, iron cross, nade, rosey the riveter =), a bullet, and stuff like that

How about....
Private-0 posts
Private First Class-2 posts
Specialist Forth Class-4 posts
Corporal-8 posts
Sergeant-16 posts
Staff Sergeant-32 posts
Sergeant First Class-64 posts

..and make the requirements double every time? Once you get over 64 posts it will become more difficult to gain rank.

like ign ?


sry , i forgot the question mark

But that sounds hard!!!!!! No, I'm kidding...I don't care on the number really..I just want some cool looking military ranks...German, American, Russian, Canadian...as long as it looks...umm...neat.

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> 0 to 2 posts will be private.

0 to 2 is too short of a length for a private . i think they should be privates till around 40 posts or something

how bout 20, then 40 is corporal, 60 sergeant, 80 lieutenant, 120 captain, 160 major, 200 general etc etc

"200 general"

you already want to be a general , huh ?

lol


i'd say make a general around 1500 posts or something

Yes, but it will become twice as difficult to gain rank after that. It will go, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048 and so and so and so..... Hardly anyone, if anyone at all, will be in the high ranks. If you do the ranks up to 200, it will get useless for the oldbies!

i'd say , keep it simple


Private -zero to 100 posts
Corporal -200 posts
Sergeant -300
Staff Sergeant -400
Master Sergeant -500
Sergeant Major -600
Second Lieutenant -700
First Lieutenant -800
Captain -900
Major -1000
Lieutenant Colonel -1100
Colonel -1200
Brigadier General -1300
Major General -1400
Lieutenant General -1500
General -1600

after that you're an full-blown OSS agent !

But if we use my idea, there would be lots of variation, which would make it more interesting. If we used your idea everyone would be either Private or a corporal, and maybe one or two would be Sergeants.

100 for private, what would the people with only 6 be? and also maybe we should look at the day of defeat ranks I have 169 posts right now and thats captain
