Could someone post the ranks of the message board and how many posts you need to level up?

Is there anywhere on the forums where we can see how many posts we have?

I think there shoudl be something at about 25 posts - not something good - but just so there is a difference between someone who has only posted 1 thing, and someone who has posted 90.

Is rank really that important in the forums?

Yeah, because people judge you by your rank, and say things like "Should headcrabs be able to post new topics"
Thus there should be no ranks so that people do not pre-judge you.

ManHack, as far as I knew, that was a weapon, not a character? Maybe I'm wrong, *shrugs.

Both AFAIK.. remember the tunnels bink vid? those very nasty little buggers that come flying at you cutting things down. Their manhacks, I think their really cool, I mean, imagine if those were used to get rid of trouble causing crowds in the real world, effective little things eh :). I assume there's some way of collecting them as weapons, like there was with some of the alien gear in HL1 and Op4
It's an enemy, an AI weapon.

I like Fenric's ideas for new ranks! Let's use them!
James Isaac

Yes! Fenric's ranks are great! Use them

heh thanks guys :)
Anyone else noticed the irony in them too.. If they were used I'd immediately drop back to Zombie, when I made that post I'm pretty sure it was the first one as Ant Lion. I had to chuckle at that when I realised, talk about shooting yourself in the foot :)

you can't, the mods removed it about a day or so after the theft cause people were likely trying to beat each others post counts with tons of spam
