I don't think so.

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
I suppose it'd be best to ask an admin about whether or not rep can affect usergroup ranks before trying to set it up like that.

Wraith 5 July 30th, 2006 07:53 AM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
That would be the most logical course of action...

Reputation cannot affect usergroups.

sørens... I mean, darn.

Well anyway, then we just have to set it up ala post counts

Gar, I be thinking that using Pirates of th' Carribean as a reference be a bad move, me hearties.

Use more accurate sources, or even books about sailors. Horatio Hornblower springs to mind.

Wraith 5 July 30th, 2006 11:56 AM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Tis not as a reference, more as..... Leverage.
Just seen the film by the way, and I think we need an
Spoiler:
Undead Monkey
incorporated somewhere into the usergroup, and a jar of dirt!

Anyways, I be only doing the graphics work... I'm not really the, political sort, ye might say.

*edit*
Here be thee Admiral of the Red rank bar:

Ooh, I be liking the skull

Oh! I know! Undead monkey be the rank just below Admiral!

Wraith 5 July 30th, 2006 12:46 PM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Yeah! And 'Captains Parrot' should be another rank.

Talking of other ranks...

Nicely done! But, how's that powder monkey coming along?(a boy who carys charges)

EDIT: I call dibs on Admiral of the Red.

Wraith 5 July 30th, 2006 12:48 PM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
gotta find a suitable picture... I was thinking, either gunpowder, or those poles (I forget the name...) they use to ram the cannon ball down to the bottom of the cannon barrel.

And I think Admiral of the Red is the real identity of Red Menace...

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Ramrods?
Best not use the ramrods, as only the gun crew used that.

If you could find an image of a single cannonball, or a single charge, that would be best.

Now, One thing I have against having swordsman or pikeman or stuff like that is that EVERYONE was trained to do so. When a pirate boarded a ship, they used everyone on the deck, not just a small group of marines.

Ramrods! that was the word I was looking for!
I've already got a pile of cannonballs for the rank of Jacktar. But I guess 1 cannonball would fit the bill. What do the charges look like? Google just brings up a load of battery chargers:confused:

I see you've posted some nice images. Good work but remember that they'll have to be smaller.

Wraith 5 July 31st, 2006 04:11 AM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
I've finished the Powder monkey, and resized all the images I have done so far.
There are a few left to do, but the majority are finished.

hey, awesome work guys :) Are you sure you followed all the rules for a usergroup? (whatever they may be)


p.s. A little less spamming in this thread please ;)

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Wow, I have to say that is some amazing work!

It looks very professional, and will certainly be becoming my secondary usergroup upon completion.

Dreadnought[DK] July 31st, 2006 09:00 AM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Nice work. Let me know when they are all finished.

I have 2 more ranks to do - Ensign, and Quartermaster, which I'm finding hard to associate with any distinctive images. Other than that, they're all done :)

I've resized them all, as mentioned before, as far as I could without making the text illegible.

hslan.Schwabenpfeil July 31st, 2006 09:13 AM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
For "Quartermaster" it might be some sort of paper/list and scribing-feather. Just as proposal.
Arrrrrr... me thinks that this be the grrrrreatest userrr grrroup everrr. Aye!

Wraith 5 July 31st, 2006 09:18 AM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Good Idea matey!
I've had a brainwave fer the rank of Ensign also...
http://img437.imageshack.us/img437/7...igncopyvh7.png
The hook works for this rank, as It shows the member is becoming a seasoned pirate.

*Edit*
Here be the Quartermaster!

Well Azh will get a shock when he clicks that then... at least the image is pirate related.

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Alright- the site has been updated, the images completed, and Wraith5 has forwarded the matter to the Admins. All said and done, for now, I cast my vote for Admiral of the Black to Wraith5, since he is the one who helped me most with this project. What says ye? Cast yer vote now!

hslan.Schwabenpfeil July 31st, 2006 12:14 PM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Yerr, me thinks so, too. Be Wraith 5 our beloved "Admirral of the Black". Him deserrves that. Aye, so me cast shall be. Arrr....

Dreadnought[DK] July 31st, 2006 01:11 PM

Re: Arrrrgh! Pirate User Group Be Near Completion!
 
Nice, I'll add the ranks. There are, however, one thing:
There can be no restrictions to these such as a rank available for only one person or a promotion approved by the admins. The rankings are controlled by post count; nothing more, nothing less. You cannot assign one rank to a specific person, it's all a matter of post count.

I'm switching over (secondary usergroup). :p

Staff can't be in any secundairy usergroups due to ppoble permission errors (though those are extremely rare but hey).
