Outrageous! Spam? All my posts are always absolutely on-topic. Even the off-topic ones.

Exactly, sounds like an untrue rumour :P Because igncom1 really IS a legend

Of course, on the topic of spam. I have no idea why you like that so much or if it is even your one and only diet, but you'll certainly explain that to me in your reply.

Well, maybe at 5.000 Ign will be a Legend



As for the Titles:



E.g. the description of the achievements as title or something similar like:



'Hyperactive Specimen' for the 'Overdrive' Achievement



'Newb' , 'Regular' , 'Oldschool' for the Achievements referring to time our account exists



'Loves Beer' or something like that for the 'Beer2Gether' Award



'Starcaller' , etc for the Rating Achievements



- feel free to continue!

If I'm the prince of off-topic entertaining comments, then you must be the King! Although very productive in terms of forum stuff, even your rare off-topic posts probably amount to more than my limited activity in the forums

To consume spam does not necessarily correlate with producing it, although that could be called cannibalistic correlation...

Damn right. And although we've moved away from the original thread discussion, it is my belief anyway that off-topic in the off-topic forum is the new on-topic

Well, that could pose a bit of a conundrum...



There's two logical ways what the thesis off topic on off topic is on topic might mean.

Either two of the same are always their contrary, so on topic on on topic is off topic and on topic on off topic would be on topic, as off topic on on topic would be off topic, which is two thirds correct, or you'd need to assign off topic a negative and on topic a positive value to say that off topic on off topic is on topic, on topic on on topic is on topic as well, off topic on on topic is off topic, but that would also mean that on topic on off topic would be off topic.

You judge whichever you prefer as I do just hope Igncom comes by to read this. 3

I prefer a starkly simplified interpretation/belief which is as follows: an off topic post in the off topic forums probably makes the whole thing suddenly on topic rather than just more off topic

Do you require a second opinion? haha

Always those believers in simplified models. If you test those against full models, you might see a few differences, no matter how well you've derived the SMS decomposition.

Well, the people can gain points either timocratically by buying the games several times over, communistically equal to the people through overproduction and hard work, as a good UE worker should, or by making research into the most liked, rated and replied to threads or the most frequented usergroups, as the sophon research committee states.

I, on the other hand...

What's a Jarl?



When I googled it i only got pictures of beer, vikings, people on bikes and this:

Jarl, related to the English word "Earl" was, from the Germanic Iron Age, (375 AD) until the High Middle Ages a Prince/Lord title in the Nordic countries.

Anyone playing Skyrim? There are Jarls too (Heads of the City)



Well, I'd say the idea is nice, but rather useless - we got our Titles via Posts-Counter

well the idea is just for fun. but i like it. and people can go on with it if they want . i just thought it could be quiet fun to do. so vote ME

Interesting idea.

But if if this is done there may should be something related to Endless Space or Amplitude. Instead of Jarl we could use maybe Endless. For example The Endless of Off-Topic.

Or only the ES forum has the Endless title and the others have something else since there will be other Amplitude games in the future.

The sub-forums of these games may will have something that is related to them.

well. i find that to be a great idea. well. lets do that instead, jarl is out of place here anyway, you are correct. VOTE SHARPTEETH FOR ENDLESS OF OFF TOPIC

well... I guess we should hold elections then

well who wants be elektet and for what. i support my self for off forum endless

Nice idea, although basically that's what the ranks are there for, with the forums being ruled over supreme by mods such as the dark lord Nosferatiel, whom I wouldn't dare try to topple in a million years!

This is mostly for fun, but i also wanna make something out of if .

I thought, couldn't it be fun if we pointed out three jarl, one for each major topic area. It is a title of with a person should be greeted, like hello jarl sovereign of the endless space domain, not all the time, just once in a wile, you can vote that you self should be jarl if you think so. .

If the "people" are not happy with the jarl, they can fell him by appointing a new, or you can challenge him to somekind of duel ( something funny). There will be three jarl domains at the start, for the tree forum main pages.



I start out by voting that i my self should be jarl of the off topic, since i spend most of my time here, and i am a very good person, and aktive user of the off topic.



If you have any good side idears to what a jarl should be able to do, please say so .



VOTE FOR JARL SHARPTEETH OF THE OFF TOPIC.

If anything, Adder is either the snake or the Atkinson of the memes. I'm not sure if he's a black adder or not, so I'm still unsure.

"Mr too many posts"? haha I think Fleet Admiral is the last rank attainable. Just look at igncom1...



Perhaps the next ones should be like the ranks of The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, e.g. Knight Commander, Knight Grand Cross etc.

According to my List with Titles, there is "Fleet Admiral" (2.500 Posts, I think) next for me and much much later "Legend" (3.000+) lol

i like the idea and it could be realy fun but for me there are a bit to few planes and i dont want to snub sombody^^



But thank you sharpteeth to mention/nominate me es the Jarl of the Endless Space ; )

If we only had Titles from the Achievements and/or Awards too, that'd be cool (When I got the time, I'll think about some examples)

Why not... extend this and make this thing rolling?

Okay. Who wants to be electet and were. I stand for offtopic
