I've noticed people in the forums with different types of ranks than the typical "private", "corporal" American style ranks. Also some that are naval rather than Amry based ranks. I looked in help, but didn't see any info. So why/how the different ranks?

Those my friend come by way of the individual requesting (very nicely ) to the webmaster himself: staff Jim.

Bribo,
My policy on that is that if someone attains a rank, let's say General for example, and they would like to be an Admiral, then as long as they don't mind never changing ranks again, then I can do this (on a limited basis). If too many people suddenly requested it though I would have to reconsider (as it's a lot of work).

Cheers,
Jim

How very, very nice of you Jim!

I'm curious, can I change my rank from General to Greek God 'ZEUS!!!!' The supreme mythological god, son of Rhea and of Chronos ? Coincidently his symbols were the Eagle, the Sceptre, and the Thunderbolt. Maybe you can something with those?

Tread. #:-)

Tread,
Sure thing. Let me just check with Olympus on the copyright issues.

Thanks for the explanation I'm pretty happy with my good ol' Army rank, I was just mostly curious what the other types signified. Thanks Again!
