Member groups

At last I deleted ALL sheriff stars. Anyone who has objections ... will be banned from the boards. ;D

Meanwhile I gave different colours to the 5 member groups. Those colours may change later in function of the complete lay-out of the boards.

1° Lost On‌e = purple
2° Wanderer = green (> 49 posts)
3° Explorer = navy (> 99 posts)
4° Adventurer = teal (> 249 posts)
5° Treasure Hunter = maroon (> 499 posts)

But in the old site it was:
Lost one, 0 to 9
Wanderer, 11 to 49
Explorer, 50 to 99
Adventurer, 100 to 499
Treasure Hunter, 500+

Thats EXACLY the way it was and I think you forgot!
And if you want, you can add a position at 250 to 499.

I think it would be kind of bad to still be the in the worst position with say- 35 posts!
You don't have to change it, but it would resemple the old site more if you did.

And I think the colour ideas are great! Maybe if you make a position between Adventurer and Treasure Hunter, make it red?

EDIT: Wait a minute! Red is for Admins! Oops. Er,,, can you think of another colour?

Since you are so sure about it, I am certainly going to change that. I really didn't know it any more and I only used the 5 degrees that YaBB offered.

You are right that it is possible to add one or more degrees. I have a look at it.

I like the different colours as well. But for the definite choise of the colours I have to wait for the finalization of the lay-out from our boards. And red is maybe not a good idea, since I need two colours as well for the global moderator (Vern) and the administrators (= red now). But that may change of course.

Hey Wingy, you look so ... green. :-[

Thanks to Wingy I was able to reproduce the original numbers of posts needed for

promotion

. I also added a 6th degree, above Treasure Hunter. The colours may change later in function of the complete lay-out of the boards.

1° Lost On‌e = purple
2° Wanderer = green (> 9 posts)
3° Explorer = navy (> 49 posts)
4° Adventurer = teal (> 99 posts)
5° Treasure Hunter = maroon (> 249 posts)
6° Expedition Leader = orange (> 499 posts)

[Wingy]

Expedition Leader! I like it!

EDIT: I feel fine, Freddy! 8-)

[aquaMat]

Eh.... shouldn't it say
Lost One (> 2 posts) ???

[Toybox]

How would you call those with exactly two posts then? (Now now, where is the geek smiley? )

I should also point out that I strongly disapprove of the colour scheme [smiley=tongue.gif] (I have to check for details, but I'm pretty sure that at least two of these look the same to me. Not that it actually matters, mark you.)

[Wingy]

Wanderer is at 15 posts! :o

[Freddy]

@ Wingy: Sorry! A wanderer really starts at 10 posts.

@ Toybox:
YOU are the mathsman. Please, tell me what is wrong with my list! A Newbie has less than 2 posts. That means 0 or 1. And a Lost One has more than 1. That means 2, 3, 4, ...
And I have good news for you. The colours will change after the finishing of the layout of our boards!
