Rank title
I agree that the Tech-based titles may lead to confusion--so perhaps we should take the ranks/titles from the 'LDS' half of "LDSTech"
If the ranks/titles are based strictly on the number of posts, we should correspond them with the length written by the various authors of the Book of Mormon:
Omni (< 10 posts)
Jarom (10 - 100 posts)
Enos (100 - 200 posts)
Jacob (200 - 400 posts)
Moroni (400 - 800 posts)
Nephi (800 - 1600 posts)
Mormon .... etc.
I guess we may be uncomfortable with even an implied 'ranking' the ancient prophets (who is to say that Nephi was greater than Moroni?) Just a thought.....

Interesting concept. Another way to look at it is to start at the first of the Book of Mormon (new members would be Nephi) and for those with the most posts, they would have the title of Moroni.captaz wrote:I agree that the Tech-based titles may lead to confusion--so perhaps we should take the ranks/titles from the 'LDS' half of "LDSTech"

Would Mormon come before Mosiah (i.e. Words of Mormon) or later (after 3/4 Nephi)? Would there be multiple Nephis (1 Nephi, 2 Nephi) or would it be consolidated? Would you put Ether before Nephi or add Mahonri Moriancumr in a consecutive order? I kinda like this idea, uniquely LDS naming convention and if done in order would eliminate the ranking by page amounts.

Ranking system
So if Tom got harsh and changed his rank to Ammon, would he lop off avatar arms?
