    Question I'm a Guild Adept? What???

    I was commenting on another post, when I happened to look over at my name, and noticed I've gone from a guild novice, to journier(my spelling is atrocious today!) to an adept?

    This is astounding to me... I certainly DON'T feel like an adept! I haven't been here long enough, nor do I have experience enough to be considered an adept :p.

    Would someone be willing to explain the guild ranking system, and let me know how this has occurred? I am most curious!

    You are in luck - I did this once myself and laid out what each level required.

    Edit - it's ironic... my post number puts me at Guild Master, which would show but I have CL showing, and previously had prof. artist showing.
    I remember long back, how far away something like that had seemed to me then.

    I just went at looked at that. Thanks! I was curious about it but didn't bother paying too much attention to it.

    Also if you go to FORUM/COMMUNITIES/MEMEBER LIST there is a reputation column at the top, clicking it puts all the members in order of the reputations they have received (not exact amounts), but I use it to look for some of the top members when I need some inspiration. Congrats on being a Guild Adept, you've improved so much in such a short time.

    I couldn't think what my title was until I read J's comment. I never paid much attention to it once I moved beyond the first or second level. To give a boring explanation however, it's just a feature of the forum software. Quite simply, you're 'adept' at writing comments (which is good!)

    Josiah and Snodsy, based on their title, write beautifully hand-crafted comments created entirely from locally sourced, organic brain matter. Apparently.

    Pity we can't pick our own titles. Diamond would Guild Gangster for sure.

    I think that's the first time, I've been told I write beautifully, writing ain't my cup of tea, but it's nice to know my title means something (accurately or not, I'll take it

    I have updated J.E's list from the forum defined list - so this one is not guessed. Apparently I would be a guild sage... I don't feel like it tho. I think with these and the Rep ratings you have to take them with a pinch of salt - esp the rep one... The thing that counts the most I think are the gold and silver compasses, featured map, etc - the trophy cabinet. But at the end of the day you need to look at their work and comments and make your own mind up.

    I should highlight (from rereading the posts in this thread). These titles are from the number of posts only. There is a separate list of phrases for the reputation - like Redrobes has much to be proud of: by hovering mouse over the rep bar. I'm not a huge advocate of the rep in its current form tho.

    So my adept status merely tells everyone that I have a gift for gab... Wow, that's actually pretty accurate... Lol
