List of rankings/ number of posts

[jfowl31]

I had a thread saved on the old site that was how many posts equals which rank...

What is the breakdown for the new site, and how do you get it to display the rank along with the picture of the stripes and such.

Kinda stupid, but I always liked those rank things... I made Gunny over there, and I dont even know what my 2 stripes means now... Im no "rank buff" to know what all the different stuff means.

I don't want a rank. I just want to be an militant asshole again.

[nevada]

fordruid should be a geneal in a week with his one word posts.

[DaCapster]

[Big Steve]

Ahhh- that's better! :ahole:
Steve :machinegun:

[franks71vw]

I guess this should add to my rank carry on:g3:

[mortars101]

in my opinion rank isnt important its the amount of dumb comments i can make

[Patria Povo]

Hey, I should be an officer!

All my promotions come from:
* brown-noser comments
* pointless posts like this
* stating the obvious to people who know more than I

:744:

:744:

That descibed most of the officers I met during my time in the Army. :wall:

[jfowl31]

I want mine to say "Resident Dumbass" because I am broke and in debt because I spend all my money on guns ammo, and accessories for guns and/or ammo.

[Rampager]

I think most all of us would fall into that catagory.:thumbup:

[fordruid]

fordruid should be a geneal in a week with his one word posts.

Hey!
I don't do one word posts (much), I just incite others to do so ;)
Besides, I wanna be a 'Field Marshall'!

[drhall762]

So this is the place to say "Okay, what you all said."

Dave :sniper:

[Jacobite]

I am not worried about rank I just wish I could find or make a cool avatar.

[fordruid]

Like what? Maybe someone can help.

[Jacobite]

Like what? Maybe someone can help.

Well something Scottish would be cool. Maybe a Highlander or a Celtic Cross.

[fordruid]

Maybe this?:grin2:

[Jacobite]

Does that symbol have a meaning?

[fordruid]

Yes, but I'm not sure what it is right now.

Try looking around here;

[Alaskagrown]

I was up there on the old site and did it without post whoring I don't expect I will get that high here just not much to say (and I have a job that actually has me working).

One of the things I liked about cetmerifles and how this place is looking right now is the quality in the posts not the quantity of the posts. Remember kiddies the rank here is just like the Army just cause your a General doesn't mean you know shit, but chances are it means you spewed plenty of it to get to where you are.

[fordruid]

Sure, if you want a forum where people only stop by when they need info. I'd rather develope friendships and visit just to visit, when I might find somebody I can help.
This is just having some fun, the mods can delete it at any time (but check out the simular post at falfiles with 19,581 posts...yes nineteen thousand+), it makes those who aren't as well versed on the weapons still want to visit and participate, and that guy might know the answer to your next question ;)

I like an active forum also. Number of posts don't mean someone knows anything but it is fun to see how active someone is. Hey I got my first class my first night.

[Norton]

But I had JR ROTC....I should have started as an E-3 ;)

I know your kind! :nonono:

[Seattlefungus]

Jacobite, one of these will work!!! :taser:

[jfowl31]

Lmfao!!!!!!!

[SteelCore]

Yep, in celtic and germanic folklore, it is called a shield knot. It was painted on the shield as a defensive magic, a little additional 'mojo' to up the defense of the shield.

Don't laugh...the native americans invented a mojo shirt as proof against paleface bullets, called a "ghost shirt"...about 150yrs later, KEVLAR for bullet proof vests was invented in a lab not far from the site where the ghost shirt was manufactured.

---See..now that's how to go OT an Ramble, all in one!---

[Player]

Jacobite, one of these will work!!! :taser:

hey that second one's from HongKong
the Brits mooned us before they left

[ctdemolay0405]

you would think that with noone even close to warrent officer, let alone officer, we would change the rankings so people arent just enlisted forever, haha

[M1 Tanker]

Why would I do that? On the old forum we had several guys at the 4000 post mark. it'll come. The difference this time I wanted to seperate the wheat from the chaff, A guy with 1000 post shouldn't be on level with the guy with 4000.

We have only been open here since March. It'll come, I'm sure of it.

[ctdemolay0405]

fair enough

[Karl E. Hungus]

i believe you made a mistake, i corrected it for you.

[k98k792]

Does it really matter what your rank is?

No,but you better get an avatar before Tanker gets ya! :eek:

[jlpskydive]

Of corse it matters!!! It makes me fell better than others and better about myself, but I'm a very shalow man and it's the little things that really make the difference in my life. :icon_biggrin:

[M1 Tanker]

Does it matter if it matters to the member in question?

[kevin]

[AK AJ]

I have been with this group for a few years and am offended by the term NOOB or Rookie, I was kidding with Pigpen.

I would not worry too much AJ, sometimes I still feel like a noob...

[Phirebug]

in my opinion rank isnt important its the amount of dumb comments i can make

this is true in the real army as well.

Rusty will always be a noob in my book..... :icon_biggrin:



luv ya man!!!!!! :thumbup::pipe:

[Drew]

I have no idea whats going on right now.

[Planning]

i have deleted about 1/2 of my post , especially when i notice i had hi-jack someone elses thread or when my own post did not make any sense when i went back to reread it, or my post was just plain stupid. stupid post just take up vauable site space. :airtight:

but when you already have been a NCO (E-6) or an officer ( 03) in real life, play rank does not mean much to me anyway........:wink:

[g3shooter1]

Damn, I have lots of catching up to do! :icon_biggrin:

[bullseye]

It's all good. I'm just here to learn stuff anyway and be with the greatest support group around. I might even be able to help someone out with my limited knowledge on occasion and that is just a plus.

[Otis61]

+1 Bullseye. +1

[ctdemolay0405]

Also, i've notice that some of the senior members are starting to have two lines of General stars.... what's the info/deal. just confused.

[SteelCore]

Okie was peeved that he couldn't outpost me! (J/K).

Oh and nice zombie thread

[DAA1]

Can I get mine set back to E7?

13 times and I still can't make E8, but at least only 51 out of 3900 made it this year. That's 1.3% for those who like math, which means in the organization I work for there are 3900 other E7's

Might as well enjoy it, the pay is not bad, and just think after 26 years I have maxed out any pay increases.

[ctdemolay0405]

well really, there are only 3849 E7s not including the people promoted from E6...

[DAA1]

well really, there are only 3849 E7s not including the people promoted from E6...

In my fraction of the Army yes, that fraction we call active duty support of the Army Reserve or AGR. Most postions are set up as E7 because that's where a lot of the work is, those few read that about 350-500 E8 positions are darn hard to get.
