It would be nice if users could achieve ranks beyond 500 points, however, this would mean that we'd need to think or rank names. Nevertheless, the original intent was to obtain the Luxor ranking system, and I as one cannot change that decision. More to be discussed in the future.

Well the luxor ranking system on the forum has two ranks that are missing so no need to think of more rank names The First rank that is missing is 'Military' which is the rank inbetween Nomarch and Vizier in the games The Second rank that is missing is 'Builder' which is the rank inbetween Priest and Treasurer in the games And then maybe add 'Pharaoh of the Two Lands' for the rank after Pharaoh I dunno Meh they probably weren't added because of there isn't enough luxor 3 spheres

Although, we can always think of new images for ranks (custom colored spheres, trophies, etc.)

Although, we can always think of new images for ranks (custom colored spheres, trophies, etc.) Well I have an idea (It may move some ranks a bit forward, but it works) We will need to change Treasurer, Nomarch and Vizier for this to work, and it also makes some ranks change to 50 posts to grow a rank instead of 100 Keep Priest at 100-149 posts, then put Builder to 150-199 posts, then put Treasurer to 200-249 posts. Then put Nomarch to 250-299 posts, then put Military at 300 -349 posts and finally put Vizier to 350 - 399 posts.This means Royal Prophet stays at 400 - 499 posts and pharaoh stays 500 + posts thus meaning you still only need 500 posts to become the highest rank so it doesn't effect anything (Because lower ranks don't mean as much as pharaoh)
And maybe add a Pharaoh of The Two Lands to 1000+ posts i dunno But this is just a suggestion

While yes that is possible, thank you indeed. However, my idea is that ranks as you progress cost more and more as you progress, instead of (for instance): "you rank up every 150 points."

Yeah, the only problem with I have this is rank inflation, where people try to post meaningless posts to rank up, which is the exact opposite intended effect of the rank system. The rank system is there as an incentive, but it should not be a reason to spam post just to rank up. Oh I guarantee there will be rank images. Just use the custom sphere sets and you might as well be able to create 7-9 new ranks from one set alone. also rank resetting is a necessary evil if we were to switch. oops While yes that is possible, thank you indeed. However, my idea is that ranks as you progress cost more and more as you progress, instead of (for instance): "you rank up every 150 points." Exponential rank increases make more sense, (eg. Normach->Royal Prophet->Pharaoh currently is 100 pts increments instead of 50 pts). That said, there should be a balance system I find. Like, if the next rank is really ridiculous, then people might try to spam post meaninglessly for the sake of getting the "forbidden" rank, ala when first Pharaoh rank was introduced. The best fix is if points are only awarded for posts above a certain character limit. I've seen this elsewhere. it'll at least promote post making that are more than 2-3 words long or a single sentence. (u know who u are) Just my opinion. Rest of you can agree or disagree in the debate below.

I can totally understand where you're coming from, rank inflation would pose a problem, but then there's the people that are over 1000+ posts, and the Pharaoh rank is stuck at 500, so really those people don't have any extra special reward for reaching 1000 posts (few at 1500+) Now that is an idea, points over a certain character limit could really benefit the ranking system so people don't get points for saying "it's good" or "thanks" or "Wow". The only flaw here is that some (not all) might start adding a load of gibberish or emotes or repetitive info to their posts (Mighten I add why more user ranks is currently a debate, do they actually matter)
