You are guaranteed to become Legendary somewhere between 775 and 1030 activity

LOL

I'm less than a month from becoming heroic and you introduce Legendary status which is another year away for me.

By the time I'm legendary will there be "Immortal" status to make us all wait another year?

LOL Grin

What?

Man, I love it...immortal is the next level but make it impossible to get, like activity 10,000 and above. lol.

So far they've been going up by factors of 2. I think that legendary is basically 960 activity +/- some amount and then chosen randomly. Still the center is 960 which is 2x 480 (hero) which is 2x 240 (senior) and so on.

I tend to think that "ledendary" is not too far above "hero" but I also think that "elite" is a pretty good one. Are there going to be further benefits for the new rank? If, for example, these guys have even larger sig-spaces then they'll probably be able to earn more on sig-ad campaigns. Would that be the case? What other benefits would be offered?

I like "ledengary" Wink

people will be making new accounts just to avoid that rank Wink

Geez, I guess you never make a typo. Good luck asshole, the karma police are watching you now.

Sorry for making fun of it. It cracks me up that the new rank actually is "Legendary". I just though it would be funny if the new rank would be something awful. Your typo was the inspiration to that. If you think thats offending, oh well, I guess Ill argue with the karma police then Wink

No problem. I think I was extra snippy yesterday.

Anyway, I dont think yellow on... uh looks greyish (the background) is a good idea. I can hardly see the yellow part of the coin.

Same for me, the yellow part barely shows up.

Can you make getting legendary provability fair? So we know if you don't like us that we get it anyway

Nah, that'd significantly complicate things. Currently this randomness is done with a single SQL query, which is very convenient.

Code:

update smf_members set ID_POST_GROUP=21 where ID_POST_GROUP=8 and
activity>=775 and activity>=775+conv(substr(sha1(concat(ID_MEMBER,
secretSeed)), 1, 2), 16, 10);

The required activity level per user is suitably random for betting, but anyone who can read my code (there are a few such people) will be able to exactly predict when someone will become Legendary, so I don't really recommend it.

I added a new Legendary membergroup with a yellow coin. I am completely open to the possibility of changing both the name and the coin color if people don't like them. In particular, if people find that threads are now too "glittery" with all of the yellow coins, I will remove the color or make it more subtle. If you think that some other color would work better, download the legendary.gif image, modify it with your color, and post your modified GIF image. Don't change anything but the color of that one region in the image, though. (I make these images by opening the image in GIMP, selecting the colored region, and then using the Colorize tool.)

To make things more fun, the Legendary membergroup has no universal activity requirement. You are guaranteed to become Legendary somewhere between 775 and 1030 activity, but the exact point in this range at which you become Legendary is random per user.

Yellow isn't visible in this forum theme. Either you will have to change the theme in new forum(which isn't good, IMO ) or please change the color which is visible and catchy till someone make better one than that.

Kindly,

I like this idea mainly because I can imagine people will be betting on when they will become Legendary. i swear so of you guys will bet on anything heh.

I can see that type of bet being fun
Counter versus freedom since were actually pretty close in terms of activity only one period difference although that result won't be known for another 8.5-9 months at minimum ^^.

As an aside I'm curious if there is a way to see how many legends there are but when I sort by group it only shows Sr.Members and lower in the position tab after VIP and Staff ranks any quick way to check that up.

Theymos are legendaries gonna have...Bigger signatures?

I sure hope not. If anything, I'd rather everyone else got smaller signatures.

Yours definitely seems like a primedice ripoff. If you wanted people to have smaller sigs, how come you don't put a small one out yourself?

I had a small signature out for many years. I recently made this one at the request of a fan who wanted a signature that was more similar to the many ad campaigns out there. I actually think the large signatures are ugly and take away from the forum's paid advertising slots, but they are very popular here and an opportunity that I have been encouraged to take advantage of despite my personal thoughts on the subject. Thanks for asking.

A fair and reasonable defense. Thanks for replying

Hmm that one does sound a bit amusing actually but I guess we need to think of a rank name that doesn't make it sound like a bunch of obnoxious pricks ^_^.

I forgot to ask but what is the letter/word length limit for the title
Also does the rank have to end with member

Since a newbie is just a newbie (not a newbie member)
Might open up a few more suggestions.
