Ima Rang

Understood. I suppose this means a$$hat rank is out of the question too?

Ummm...where is the turd?

How about a nuttier than squirrel turds rank?

I can hardly believe you forgot it, but the most important and displayed rank...Butthurt.

The person who comes in second is the first loser.

I had this problem once and if I recall correctly, it had something to do with either the shoe base I was wearing...or maybe not wearing... Sometimes when I make animations, I notice that if I don't account for the avatar wearing shoes, it results in a hovering appearance.

I have sucess just logging into the forums and then I am still logged in if I go to my dashboard from there. Perhaps it is the order in which you log? I'm not positive because I normally log in to the forum first

I don't want people to look at my forum badge and think "whaddayaknow, grumpy old Ishtara went and tried to be helpful for once, only to gain special privileges". And I actually used to answer questions and post short tutorials every once in a while. But now I'll stay out of the kudos-enabled subforums. So at least in my case, the rank system does the exact opposite of what LL were probably trying to achieve. *shrugs* So I guess now would not be a good time to ask you how I can animate a mannequin?

A good post is a good post, a bad one is a bad one, and I can't think there's anyone who seriously measures their self-worth based on their ranking on a bulletin board! Mind you, in word, I am "Sir Sigmund of Leominster," an honor bestowed upon me by the Noble House of Leominster, an exclusive order that is only open to... well... anyone called Leominster. I don't expect folks to bow - but a quick tug of a forelock and a nod along with "God bless ye, sir" wouldn't go amiss. I'm not sure tugging of forelocks is allowed under the community standards. :smileyvery-happy:

I love the noobs! It always takes me back to my first week in SL...ah the memories...walking around like a pissed off pile of pixels with a torch in hand and box on my head...one shoe on...good times...good times...

Imagine then if Advisors and up had the latent ability to mod, or censor, edit posts and peronas. Cato's et al concerns are valid. As we have already witnessed someone presuming their status deserved recognition and surrepticiously tries to influence mod and Manager attitudes. For most the ranks are inconsequential. That is until one of their posts or threads is locked or moved because someone who deems their rank is superior and therefore their concerns more credible is listened to by those with the ability to do that. Some hee have very real aspirations to climb the ranks and not necessarily for their altruism. I was not "afraid" of the puppetry....I was sick of it for the character assassinations being carried out against the puppets targets. My hope was the heightened moderation would alleviate such actions as the mods would have instant access to the "mains" identity while weeding out sock puppet abusers. That may not be the case..It was a hope. I can't imagine that LL would give mod rights to what amounts to nothing more than a few SL residents with better manners than some of us. Especially if alt information is available to mods... I agree, Cato has very valid points, ones of which I did not consider. I would like to know if it is true; can forum participants earn Mod rights and with those rights, will they have access to information that for the rest of us would be a TOS violation to even inquire about?

Ah...good points. Hyper-emotional RIC's resulting in warning letters or worse, loss of SL account...not something I considered.

Why does it even matter, really? I suspect that none of us at any "rank" are going to post anything of such global importance that if it gets locked or deleted that we run the risk of anything catastrophic happening. Why so concerned?

Perfect! Thank you so much!

She has already been missing during the last weeks (or months?) of the old forum. That is awesome news! Intelligence like hers should not be wasted :smileyhappy:

Much to your dismay...lol...I am here. Great to see you all back and very awesome to see an off topic forum present so quickly after begging asking :smileywink:

Waves! Hello!

It appears the moderator is turned on though...or, uh, well...you know what I mean.

I think we do. Entertainment seems a suitable location for GD's :smileyhappy:
