Fallout Studios Forums

For a long time this forum was based on Command & Conquer, that, everybody knows. However, we have recently tried to shift away from this, as you may have noticed from amongst some of the changes that have been implemented of late. One thing remains, however, and that is the member titles used BEFORE you reach 500 posts. They still read Technician, Kane, Rocket Soldier, and whatever other C&C-based units there are.

We think it's time for a change. However, try as we might, we can't come up with anything that we think works perfectly. So we'd like to ask you as to what you think would work. We only ask two things of you.

• Your suggestions are not based on a game, they are independant of any game.
  
• That you provide a full list. The levels are currently:
  • 0 posts - Technician
    
  • 20 posts - Minigunner
    
  • 50 posts - Rocket Soldier
    
  • 100 posts - Engineer
    
  • 150 posts - Chemical Trooper
    
  • 200 posts - Commando
    
  • 300 posts - Master of Propaganda
    
  • 400 posts - Kane
    
  • 500 posts - Custom
  
  
• If you want to you may also suggest a change in the actual levels if it suits your list, so don't worry if you can't think of that final title that you'd want, we can always change!

Happy brainstorming!

I'd go with the evolution thing if it didn't try to put humans at the top...

Military ones should be quite appropriate to FS, .

Heheheh . Definitely original, but I'm not sure we'd sound pretty welcoming by calling new members undeveloped lifeforms and/or spineless .

Military ones get mah vote

The military ranks have absolutely nothing to do with FS though.

Military ones hold no appeal to me, the evolution one is better but I don't think its right for FS. Something gamer related?

Not really the best idea but since youre taking any suggestions...

I like this the best so far. It's not too specific, so you don't need to know about x game/organisation/whatever to understand at.

Needless to say, I'm not a fan of the military one... and while I think the evolution one has charm... it doesn't really have anything to do with us, and I guess could be considered a tad offensive.

This looks pretty awesome to me
Definitely my favourite so far.

Hmmm, definitely not bad. Kind of blows away the FS elitist stuff, too.

Seconded.

Well we are nuclear fallout after all, ze.

I quite like that tbh

I liked the Red Soldier's recommendation, never thought about that

Me likey.

I like the professional and visitor one. It shows no bias to anyone and it makes us all appear equal by our willingness to post

Evil Monkey, on 1 Nov 2009, 14:20, said:

Indeed, that is a nice set.

Red Sniper, on 1 Nov 2009, 14:48, said:

I like them as well. Simple, related and effective.

You want to use letters as ranks? I prefer the ones by Red Soldier to be honest... bit more imaginitive.

I find them kind of lacking myself. Most of these letters aren't even types of radioactive decay and it's not in sequential alphabetical order either. Ofc it's very good you came with a suggestion, though .

I quite like this idea actually.

am i the only one who loves the evolutinon one?

WNxMastrefubu, on 2 Nov 2009, 0:38, said:

Its good, but I don't think its 'us'.

Plus it has the chance of offending religous people.

Since we are Fallout Studios, why not something related to it? IE: Atom, Neutron, etc...

Probably wouldn't work, I dun know.
