And a custom bar isn't a stolen one ;)!

Sorry, that isn't possible. Here are no more left. Three were to grab and three are filled up.

Maybe sometime later, if here will be a change in forum policy. However for that look for Kalah and not to me. :creative:

I have been thinking about adding to the ranking system... but I seem to remember protecyon saying that opening for people to personalize their ranks would require some re-coding, i.e. actual work. Guess whether that's a priority. The easiest thing is probably to simply add more ranks.. that's actually not such a bad idea, since there are so many members with high post numbers nowadays. Like me, who recently passed ten thousand. Yah, I know. I have no life.

And you admit to it. How adorable :D
I think higher ranks would be really cool and I doubt you could find anyone who wouldn't think so ;)

Yes, the ranks seem (for some reason) to generate a lot of interest. Surely that's what this board needs in these slow between-games times...

Yeah I know, I thought that using someone else's bar (Muszka) would be possible, I'm not asking for a new custom bar though.

I think if you want a custom bar, you should have your own. Not a copy of someone elses...

Random Thought: What's the point of forums having a "Hot" sign (or popular, as it is called here) on threads with a certain number of pages?

First when I was a noob I thought those "Hot" signs are made by a Moderator or someone to mark the thread as interesting, I didn't know that it's automatically done when it reaches a certain number of pages... what's the point then? Can't you as a user just see the number of pages and see how "hot" it is? :D
No matter how powerful one becomes, there is always someone stronger. That's why I'm in a constant pursuit of power, so I can be prepared when an enemy tries to take advantage of me.

Good point. And the flame-mechanic seems pretty indiscriminate; I'd hardly call threads where people prattle on about this and that for page after page for "hot" :)

A hot thread would be, like... Jesus vs Buddah vs Muhammed, who will win *DING* FIGHT! But we won't be having any of that :shh:

It's a default phpbb feature. I agree that's it's pretty pointless.

At least it can be semi-disabled by setting the limit suitably high...

Well seeing as how 95% of the threads are already "hot", disabling it or not wouldn't make much of a difference anyway :D

My point is that it shouldn't be based on the number of pages, but I know that's a default features so...
