Are the ranks next to comments supposed to update in the message thingy when someone gains a rank? 'Cause I have an older Forum reply from Spot that shows him as 'Private First Class', but the newer comments from blogs/polls from him are all 'Specialist.'05.30.08 6:04 pm-

To be quite honest, I don't know.
I'll find out, unless Spot responds to this first, which would be my doing >.>---

The sad thing is sometimes I look back on it and see a trail carnage where I've left my mark and not gotten any replies, and then all of a sudden i have like 50 and spend all my time answering them rather than doing any work I should be doing.---

I don't have a wii, but I would definitely consider it if I did. And technically the series is still on tv but they got rid of misty and have a different voice actor for ash and it's really annoying to watch now. Also, I don't like how they just keep adding pokemon and removing the older ones from the series. I really like some of the older pokemon now missing, and don't like some of the pokemon they've now added.---

I've only terrestrial, to be honest - so no Pokémans for me :\
But I still have my cards tucked away somewhere!
The First and second generations of monsters were brilliant, the third were terrible, and the fourth are ok.
But I bet the series has strayed so much from the original atmosphere of the first episodes.
The Wii's an awesome console, but I have to admit I was anticipating stuff more when I had a Gamecube, than I do now.06.04.08 7:40 pm-

I actually just sorted my cards yesterday. Found them cleaning my room. The series is pretty awful nowadays, nothing like it used to be. I never really anticipated too many games for the gamecube, not like I do now anyways...---

How exactly we get points, what the points do (beyond extending our e-penis) and the how they decay over time from inactivity.
The nitty gritty, and some hard figures if you please

Well, I can't give you any specific numbers.
However, you get points for everything you do here that involves posting.
These posts, for example, are earning us points.
As for what they get, it's all about the e-peen right now. Now, anyway

Very cool stuff!
Only bug I can see it that on every post on this site, the left part where you now added the insignia: if you hover your mouse over it, it turns into a pointer, suggesting there's a link below - but there isn't one.---

While we're at it: on post-only pages, there is still the old version in place, with the "Rating" and "Posts" count: http://i123.photobucket.c…ms/o288/rotane/nr_bug.png
Speaking of which, will these 2 values ever be seen again? On the new Ranking page perhaps? (I'm also curious about the home many recruits we have stat.)---

Absolutely nothing.
Seriously man, there is not one line of code that removes points. In fact we keep a log of what actions generate what points so that we can verify stuff like this.
I'll look it right now... (10
0am exactly)
...ok, I've added it all up (10
6am) and sent you a note with more detail. I've checked it against what your Rank page is showing and it looks correct.
Ideas?

First thing you might have noticed is the insignias have been added to posts, under your username. Mainly this is for a quick reference thing, it's easier to keep track of who's besting our rank this way!
Also in the ranking system, we've added a few things when you click on the insignia on your main page, which have had a size tweak (It's not your eyes playing tricks, honest!). It shows all the things it did before, but now you can see your position on the site ladder, in comparison with everyone else's position.
Of course, there is still a 'More coming' tag in there, because there are more things coming, and I will let you know as soon as they do!
