I have now been accorded the rank of 'Junior Member'.
Which seems like a lame title to me!
Blackbird, is it possible to change the ranking titles on the board? And if so, please can we choose some better ones?
Pretty please?
Blessings,
Angharad - (who gets all fixated on these nerdy details!)

lol, if that kind of thing bothers you, you are very welcome to think up some alternate titles.
(I expect that I can change them, haven't checked, but most things are edit-able)

oooh rankings!! I have to admit they irritate me too (not your fault Blackbird all the boards seem to come with them) how many ranks are there? and can we call them after the ogham trees , that should make it fairly obscure as to what they actually mean  |

Hey all,
I have also just reached this 'rank', which I have to say puzzled me. Junior Member? Blackbird, I have to agree with the other comments. Another title would be sooooo much better.
I like the idea of the Ogham Trees too, for what it's worth.
Bendithion,

OK, I can change the rankings.
However, sorry to go against you all
(what a fascist dictator I am! Democracy? What?)
but I'm not keen on the Ogham idea. After all, the Ogham letters are Irish and the idea of this site is to be Brythonic in focus.
Not that I have anything against the Irish and Scottish lore... just that there is already enough of that elsewhere.
Does anyone have any Brythonic-themed ideas?

Hmmm...good point, Blackbird. I would prefer something from the Brythonic traditions...
What about animals? We know certain animals are very prevalent in Brythonic material...the boar (baedd), the stag (carw), the salmon (eog), the eagle (eryr), the raven (bran/cigfran), etc.

ok the Coelbren then  ( I can give you the tree names in Welsh if it helps) I did think of the Round Table but then we'd all have blokes names which could be confusing the heraldic animals from the Arthurian tales might work, with Dragon (Draig) being the 'top' one, and would tie in with Siarons suggestion. |

I agree! Much better-can you tell us where the different levels break out? Or how you have assigned them? Just wondering.

Baedd = 0 - 50
Cigfran = 50 - 100
Carw = 100 - 250
Eog = 250 - 500
Draig = 500+
