Popular Post Mike Posted May 22, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 I was thinking about adding a new feature to the forums. Well it's nothing new but I am sure I ain't the only one who wants this to be implemented (Most online time on forums). Post below what you'd also like to get added. It's time to fix these forums. @Tupac, @John could you two also post your opinion.1. Most online time on forums. 2. (Idk if this a bug or not but, if I delete my posts it seems like I haven't deleted any posts at all my post count just stays the same. This screenshot was taken in 2013 (on old forums): Veteran ranks Don't know what it is but when it comes to Veteran ranks on forums people seem to lose their mind (Including me). I've been using Roat Pkz forums since late 2012 so before trying to post irrelevant shit/banter know that anything u say to me I couldn't care less about it. Also this is just my opinion but I find it very weird that @John has been given the command to make decisions over people getting veteran ranks cause I am positive that I've never seen 'John' or 'Aqua' use forums in the past. This should be really looked at.

Regarding veteran rank. I say 2 years of activity with consistent activity, consistent input in the community and a large amount of respect garnered from around the community. 18 months is a little too short for me, 24 months is 6 months longer and would be better for limiting the amount of people who can obtain the rank. I'd be open to 2 and a half years as well, with it further limiting the amount of people who have the rank but also retaining its meaning. If the rank was given to people who had actually contributed to the server (back then or now) in some way or had garnered respect among the players, there wouldn't be so much talk and disagreement with the requirements This person is totally right. There's actually no meaning having veteran ranks on forums cause like everyone gets and has it. I didn't think anyone even wanted veteran anymore considering its a dumb rank with literally no meaning behind it now In short: VETERAN RANK SHOULDN'T BE GIVEN TO PLAYERS WHO HAVE NEVER CONTRIBUTED TO THE FORUMS. I want this problem to be solved as soon as possible cause it's a fucking pain in the ass 11 Quote Link to comment
Lion Tales Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 well many people gets the rank by using $$$$ or either good friends with gretar/john etc.. Quote Link to comment
I M Pulse Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Actually agree with this, also us who have been gone for a while but put our efforts and time on the old forums, Don't get credit at all in the new forums. #Vetrankforchosenonesonly. Quote Link to comment

PK Guy Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Spot on. Gretar doesn't know most of the players on a personal level, he can just spy on your activities through logs, which unfortunately only begun from like 2014-15 (I think??). Therefore he can't confirm 5 Yr. Veteran ranks and that's why he doesn't. All the original in-game join dates have been lost over time due to changing hosting providers and file transfers/downloads.. Only way you can really tell who is 'old' and who is not is to try and search the fragments of pages found in the web archives for the old forums, and of course to check in-game you look up a certain database release. Using vouches is unreliable because people can lie. (BTW: support for the forum stats) 4 Quote Link to comment
