I think they're fine as they are.

Maybe you could come up with a freemium Conqueror symbol though?

This was part of an update and it is the default color. It is supposed to be changed back to normal. Pretend you don't see it for a little bit. :)

Quotes from the facelift thread in Announcements. So this could be added as well depending on which military icon you choose :?: A possibility too as long as they don't clash with Mod colors!!

It wouldn't really be feasible because the colors are based on a users default group. I guess if multiple groups were created for people to choose from, it could work that way, but more would have to change.

However, as stated by the last few posters, there will be a lot of confusion if there are multiple rankings systems. It's probably best to stick with one.

Too bad this isn't getting a lot of support. I think after people got used to it they would really like it.
I think part of the problem with the old symbols is the lower ranking stuff is boring and they all look similar. Most people who check out suggestions are higher ranked and have the cooler insignias so they aren't really concerned maybe?

Yep, they dont care abouth new player at all, just look hes own benefit . Its will be hard to make any positive changes for all players, when small group try to put all possible obstacle for positive changes for any future players.

or perhaps this is just a dumb idea that would add confusion and little else.

it's time to let this die and throw your weight behind that multi-tiered ribbon idea floating around here somewhere. if only i could remember who came up with that. :-k

Would it be possible that the change is part of each members profile, so if I pick cool looking ranks that's what I see on everyone, but if you can't handle change, you can choose to continue to see the current symbols, with a few extra ranks added?

This would probably work. Or you could have the current setup be an option that you could select and any new players would have the new insignias since the new ones arguably won't confuse any new players and they seem to me to be more encouraging for lower ranks.

There is no plot to get your qwert. If you see the votes, half of the people want no change and the second place vote is to keep the same graphics. Those are facts.

Lets get some newbies in here and see what they think.
You are always going to have crusties voting down any new change, complaining about rap music, etc...

But when you give one option 4 chances to get a vote, you ruin the poll.

The only two options on your poll that have any meaning are these ones:
Yes, I agree fully with qwert's proposed 3-Path System - 4 votes
No, the ranks are fine as they are - 11 votes. =D>

You have to make the polls fair and abide by them or you make a farce of them. How many polls now have we had for this suggestion or variation of it, all to be rejected. When will the polls stop I wonder? Probably when your suggestion wins one. :-s

Semi crusty or not, I like the old insignia.

I made the poll, and will take full responsibility for it. While it is true that every option waters down the pool for success, this poll still shows accuracy in that less than 50% are in favor of changing the ranks. I just don't think there is much community support for this idea, or any of its variations.

So your idea of trying to get players to vote for your option is to insult them. Me, I try to persuade them to my way of thinking by being nice. As for not caring about new players, bloody hell qwert, what have you done lately for new players? And how would this help new players? It does not help them, it would only give them a different type of graphic. That is not help, it is feeding your ego.

Come on Doom, a blind, drunk rat being chased by a pack of starving cats could of made a better poll. :lol:

I don't think Qwert is offending anyone and Qwert has done alot for this community, so I think an apology is needed here!

I think its a great topic of discussion, with more than 50% of forum members wanting a change of ranks.

When someone says I do not give a s**t about new players, I take that offensively. So yes, I await your apology qwert. But if I did offend qwert, I apologise to him but advise he gets thicker skin. :mrgreen:

Agreed, a great topic that has now run its course. As for support, it has been pointed out that a 4 to 1 poll is bad. Very bad, but still the no change is in the lead. That alone should be enough to convince 99% of people to leave this alone.
