Hello everybody.

As you can see, we have added ranks to the forums. The ranks are little images you see below your registered usernames. These ranks only show your level of activity in the forum and in no way makes anyone any better or worse. Some people have a higher ranking than others because they have also been in the board longer.

The way the ranks work:
As your number of posts increase, so does your rank. As your post count goes up, so does your rank level and a new picture of the Ingalls family will activate. That being said, please, please, do not post just to get a higher rank. People hate it when you spam like mad. So, just be your regular self, post like normal and in time, you will see your rank increase.

For the titles, we decided to do a Little House theme. Below are the title ranks and how many posts are in each rank.

The ranks are as follows:

New Pioneer (1 – 300 posts)


Frontier Traveler (301 - 600 posts)


Prairie Settler (601 – 900 posts)


Walnut Grove Resident (901 – 1,200 posts)


Farm Land Owner (1,201 – 1,500 posts)


Town Business Owner (1,501 – 1,800 posts)


Ingalls Friend for Life (1,801 – 2,100 posts)


When you have acquired MORE than 2,100 posts, you are now eligible to have a customized rank title. That means, you can choose two custom titles. One that will replace the “complete” title at the bottom and one that will replace the small title 'Ingalls Friend for Life'. You choose what you want those two titles to say.

After reaching 2,101 posts, please send me a private message if you are interested in receiving a customized rank title.

Hope everyone enjoys the new ranking system!

Thanks for bringing it over, Shirley!

ETA:Oops...forgot I shortened my username in the transfer

Welcome back, Larry!!!!!! :woohooo:

Hello everyone,

This post has to do with custom ranks. When we made the transfer to this forum, our post count went back to the beginning. There were some members that were already eligible to receive a custom rank in the old forum so it is only fair that they don’t have to start all over to achieve custom rank status.

I have made the following list that shows what rank status the members had in the old forum. For those of you who are not eligible for a custom rank yet, but are close to getting there, send me a PM if you are interested so I can let you know what your post count was from the old forum. I will just simply add that count, to the number of posts you have here and give a total to see if become eligible for a custom rank.

List of Rank Status:

Available for Custom Rank
Rhonda, Carol, Debbie, Pam, David, Lori and Ruby (Lily)

Ingalls Friend for Life
Jacob

Town Business Owners
Divingirl (Danielle) and Teresa

Farm Land Owners
LHDaisy, Bethandmanly (Cheryl) and Amy

Walnut Grove Residents
Ryder, Lilly (Samantha), Kathy and Melissa

Prairie Settlers
Rob, Carolineingalls (Maureen) and Vanesa

Frontier Travelers
Brenda, MrsJREwing, #1 Laura Fan (Alyssa), Rana, Rach, Liz, Cowgirl13 (Paige), I love Dean and ILoveAlmanzo

*If you are not in this list, that means you were just starting out (New Pioneer status) in the old forum.

Those of you who are already eligible for a custom rank, and would like to get one, please send me a PM letting me know what you would like to have. Remember, I need two titles. No long names please. Also, let me know what color you like and if you would like a mini picture in your rank (See Savannah’s as an example).

If you have any questions, let me know. Thanks!

So are you saying that I can retain my old rank from the other forum? I think I was at 52%.

YES YOU CAN KATHY!!!! ISN'T THAT GREAT?!?!?! :woohooo:

Do I need to do a PM about it???

I'm not sure, I think they have the list from the old forum with that information. I think the PM is for the special rank to put with your avatar.......
