Delta asked me a question in an e-mail this week, the answer to which I thought would be interest all Members...

Delta wrote:


"Rick - Where exactly does "Div Vice Captain" rate in the scheme of things? Delta"

To which I replied:

"Glad you asked Bruce, it works like this, based on Ranks of Apprentices (and those who controlled them) at Nirimba...


:cry: Sprog--------------------0 to 9 posts---------------(Speaks for itself, 1st Term Apprentice)
:? Hut Senior-----------10 to 19 posts---------------(Honorary Apprentice Rank)
:x Div. Vice Capt-------20 to 29 posts---------------(Honorary Apprentice Rank)
:) Div. Capt-------------30 to 39 posts---------------(Honorary Apprentice Rank)
:D Div. P.O.-------------40 to 49 posts----------------(The 'real McCoy', each Division had one)
:shock: Reg. Chief------------60 to 69 posts---------------(The real McCoy, like The Coxswain, or MAA)
:twisted: Div. Officer----------70 and above posts---------(The Real McCoy, each Division had one)

Only 7 ranks available Bruce, so you're doing well...!!! Regards, Rick"

Ned and I had quite heated discussions on this forum enhancement when we set up the website, observing how it, along with a 'star system' that had been in place on other websites, had been abused by Members wanting to claw their way to top rankings with a multitude of superfluous postings... :roll:

Our compromise was to set up rankings using terminology that was well known to all at Nirimba, and I reluctantly relinquished the 'star system'... :cry:

We're both happy with the result, and nobody seems to be abusing it to date... :D
