RoryoCox Posted December 20, 2010 I just realized, that until the moderators change the Arch Duke description, I apparently "don't exist" Did someone say something? I'm sure the staff will come up with some new and creative rank. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Cam Posted December 20, 2010 Doh! I think I just got 'Cammed'. I'm glad you saw the joke in there. : wink: Where are the title gods when you need them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Elijah Timms Posted December 20, 2010 Pleasure to see you officially 'anointed,' prateek!! Remember us peasants when you're deep inside the Eurobricks stronghold! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Yellow Brick Posted December 20, 2010 I'm sure the staff will come up with some new and creative rank. How about a Royal Duke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CMP Posted December 20, 2010 I was thinking 'Uber Duke'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sisco Posted December 20, 2010 How about 'Uber Duke of Dukiness'? Or 'Posting Try-Hard' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted December 20, 2010 How about a Royal Duke 'Royal' would imply related to the highest family, or in other words directly connected with the Staff, who I'm sure don't want members appearing to join their ranks on account of post count alone. Or 'Posting Try-Hard' ! Honestly, I think we need a new group that doesn't use 'Duke'. The three duke ranks occupy posts 2,000-8,000; that's 75% of the posts currently under a rank, not to mention that another rank will make that number go up since Arch Duke also includes the posts made prior to the earning of the next rank up. The only other medieval title I can think of below the royal family is Lord. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only other medieval title I can think of below the royal family is Lord. Aren't people ranked as barons and above hold the title lord anyway? I believe Arch Duke is the highest non-royal rank. Congratulations prateek, that sure is a lot of posts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congratulations prateek, that sure is a lot of posts! Then I guess we do need another prefix. Baron is actually not a bad sounding rank, either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Izzy Posted December 21, 2010 How about we go back to building with our LEGO and stop putting so much emphasis on post count and what you may or may not be called in 6 - 12 months if you are still around and are posting as much. It is NOT important and it is NOT what Eurobricks is meant to be about. This thread has turned into talk about ranks and there is already a thread about that.

Rocketbilly Posted December 21, 2010 Congratulations, Prateek You've reached the highest rank, so it would seem. Not sure what it really means, but you must really enjoy using the site...and it's a lovely title, so well done! Will/Rocketbilly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jipay Posted December 21, 2010 I don't think a quantity of posts requiers such attention. Quality posts would be better, and I think there's still room for improvement ! I just hope this topic won't trigger wet dreams of 8000+ posts for some members (even if it seems that way already). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sisco Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) I don't think a quantity of posts requiers such attention. Quality posts would be better, and I think there's still room for improvement ! I just hope this topic won't trigger wet dreams of 8000+ posts for some members (even if it seems that way already). Once you think about it, Quantity gets you... -More PM space. Quality gets you... -Power -Respect -Titles -Tags -More PM space -Etc... I'll think I'll stick with quality. Edited December 21, 2010 by cralegoboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LEGO Guy Bri Posted February 26, 2011 (edited) To one dedicated EBer. Congrats prateek on your 8,000th post! EDIT: Sorry didn't mean to post this one up so late. Thanks KielDaMan and Princess M. for setting the record straight. I went searching for the ranks you get as you accumulate a higher post count. Never found it... I forgot where you guys put that topic Edited February 26, 2011 by Leg Godt Gud Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess Muttonchops Posted February 26, 2011 Congratulations prateek! Wow, 8000+ posts, that's impressive. So, from now on, if any of us plebs meet you in the street, should we curtsy or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XimenaPaulina Posted February 26, 2011 To one dedicated EBer. Congrats prateek on your 5,000th post! EDIT: Sorry didn't mean to post this one up so late. You still got it wrong, it's not 10,000, not 5,000, but 8,000 posts. Anyway, it seems the celebration here never stops eh, as well-wishers keep dropping by.
