Just wondering, because it seems that all ranks besides the CP Player and Infractions have been turned off. So, would you want to be able to make your own rank/title for yourself?

First of all, RFS said that he wasn't going to let anyone do that. Secondly, people will abuse it and there will be a big controversy over the ranks. End of story.

I don't mean to be harsh in my words, but that's the sad truth.

Nope, that privlege should be for mods and admins only in my opinion, also most forums only let mods and admins have custom ranks, so it may cause confusion

Balth and Tyler, I understand what you are saying, but you never really answered the question: Would you want to have it?

Staff have coloured ranks and names, so we would be able to tell the difference. I personally like it, but I know RFS doesn't...

Infractions have been turned off?

I would kinda like it, but with rules, like you can have cuss words in it or have it saying you are a mod or anything.

Mine would be Darkness or Devil Bunny.

Nope. I still don't want to have it. Like I said, it's because of the problems and abuse that will be involved with them. I don't want any part of that and I'm sure no one else would either.

No, infractions have not been turned off. They will continue to remain on these forums so that the user is aware that they have broken a rule. Also, infraction ranks will remain to notify the user that they have recieved an infraction.

No, infractions are still there.. Yes, but with the cussing thing, it won't get passed the filters.

I would want it, I feel it should be earned as a privelage though. Earned over time by showing maturity, basically by not earning an RV rank. It would not show favorites if RFS or anyone assigned them, it would show that they are able to put trust in someone, besides.

This is the internet.

I would like the idea, but i also agree with Balth and Tyl3r4.

I would only really like it if we were able to make it, but then if it was bad or anything, people could get an infraction and the feature isn't accessible to them during the time of having the infraction, or an infraction for anything.

Yes, but if YOU EARN THE RANK THEN THAT SHOULD BE GOOD. It would encourage better behavior in the forums. Can't you see my point? Now Poland forgets you ;_;.

Personally, yes, having a custom rank would be cool, but sadly, people would abuse the fact of having custom ranks swearing and other stuff in there.

Firstly, I would like to have custom ranks, mine would probably be something like 'King of Gamers'.

However, I appreciate that it will not happen because many people will try to abuse it, make there title Moderator or something stupid, leader or some other jumped up name that may confuse people. Also, it would be make the moderators have less advantages.
