it is also the only human organization we know of with this many possible ranks
That is a very good point.
We know of other orders, but nonewith quite as many ranks. Rathma has priest, some sort of high priest some primus or eldar type rank and an initiatve level rank to be sure, but that is only 4, and two I cannot guarantee with all certainty.
The Barbarian society has Kings and cheiftains, hunters, but again not enough to truly gauge the full range of ranks here. Zakarum actually falls a few short, but it is the closest, unless we dock a few ranks.

Two prehaps, since Zakarum+quest icons was an option. One I would most definitely like to see implimented.

But Zakarum was just used as an example. If Link's list was chosen, I would still like to see quest icons used rather than skill icons, while others may prefer skill icons.

Definately three, but the last two should remain for later. First we need to decide on the titles.

Oh. So my Horadrim suggestion wasn't good enough?
8 is still too many. I'm thinking three or perhaps four max. That way we can actually get a decent turnout on a voting.
And we need to decide what ranks to include in that poll. So at least remove option 6&7, they don't make any sense at all and have no basis in Diablo.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

Do we have nay other organizations which could be represented? Or are there any other suggestions that could be created? Perhaps a combination of Horadrim Necromanercs, Sorecresses etc? I don't know, I'm just asking, are there any other suggestions which are at least based off of something in Sanctuary that makes sense?
And more important, do we have any improvements to the already suggested ranks? (Such as the Horadrim one, I really don't think we should pick that one as it is.)

Eight is far too many, now if you'd asked my advice, I'd have left off at four.

Hard to say, by the time of Diablo II and LOD, the Horadrim has disbanded, and the mage clans have once again adopted their old ways, yet the Zakarum retains it's sense of order and structure, even in the East.
And the Necromancers were never part of the Horadrim, so I do not think I would like combining their Rathma society with any who shuns them.

Good point.
So does anyone have anything against the Zakarum choice? If you do, say so, and why.

My intial two day longer submittion period expires at the end of today.
So the poll would probably be made on the morrow, before I go to work, then spend all day wishing I was playing LOD.

If I may ask this stupid question, so what is the current ranking system??
I would love to have had something like an option of:
Who do you want to be?
Necro
Barb
Amazon......
and then according to each the fitting ranks, thought I don't think that is really possible is it?

and you cant really do that. like elfen said several times there can only be one ranking system. not multipules
we are working on what the new ranks will say. instead of yours the squire it will say something else. we are trying to get some ranks that are more diablo type names that make sense.

That's what I made. I called it Sanctuary's ranks, they started calling it Rathma ranks.
Also, mine can go with "The Knight of the Order of the Dragon" or "The Knight of The Dragon" or even "Knight of the Dragon"...
Anyway, gonna make a preview with the quest of my ranks now...
Wow. I have been a member for awhile now, and i just got to say it. How or where do you guys find the time to accumulate so many post's?? I mean, do you really have THAT much to say? That is seriously insane. keeps the site interesting though, so keep up the good work colossal posters.:thumbsup: I also think you should get some kind new kind of rank for people who have been an active member for a long time. Some of us just don't have the time to reach a spiffy new rank, I think it would be decent if for every year you were an ACTIVE member, you got a little glyph beside your rank or something. I don't know, what do you guys think?

Eight is far too many, now if you'd asked my advice, I'd have left off at four.
Hard to say, by the time of Diablo II and LOD, the Horadrim has disbanded, and the mage clans have once again adopted their old ways, yet the Zakarum retains it's sense of order and structure, even in the East.
And the Necromancers were never part of the Horadrim, so I do not think I would like combining their Rathma society with any who shuns them.
So does anyone have anything against the Zakarum choice? If you do, say so, and why.
Folks will always come and go, so enjoy them while they're meant to be in your life.
My intial two day longer submittion period expires at the end of today.
So the poll would probably be made on the morrow, before I go to work, then spend all day wishing I was playing LOD.
and you cant really do that. like elfen said several times there can only be one ranking system. not multipules
I'll make a preview of what the Rathma ranks would look like with the skill/quest images when I get online later. (No photoshop on the Wii. Lol...)
there were ranks posted on the rathmian? didnt know that.
Serf 1-9
Villager 10-24
Militia 25-49
Man at Arms 50-99
Swordsman 100-199
The Knight 200-499
The Knight of the Realm 500-999
The Knight of the Order of the Dragon 1000-1499
The Conjurer 1500-1999
The Hero 2000-2999
The Hero of Khanduras 3000-4499
Trag'Ouls Right Hand 4500+
That's what I made. I called it Sanctuary's ranks, they started calling it Rathma ranks.
Also, mine can go with "The Knight of the Order of the Dragon" or "The Knight of The Dragon" or even "Knight of the Dragon"...
Anyway, gonna make a preview with the quest of my ranks now...
