Yeah, we've got ranks now
. Nothing really important; no special permissions are given; they don't look good on a resume...they're just fun
. You advance in rank depending on your post count.

SPECIAL RANKS
Triforce of Courage - Given to
Kylethedarkn for his efforts in constructing the original WMB site. In conjunction with the other Triforce bearers, he helped found this movement and give it a ground outside of the forums that spawned it.
Triforce of Wisdom - Given to
Yadda for getting this place rolling, and keeping it going behind the scenes. He's allowed to be anal, because he knows more than the rest of us put together about the inner workings of the site and forum.
Triforce of Power - Given to
Yitik, the crazy bugger who figured that this might actually work, and the community manager inside the site and forum and ambassador to the fan community.
WMB Punching Bag - Given to
DaKing9 in the first few days of the website, because Yadda and Yitik were bored and spent their time poking fun at him. If you're having a bad day, this is an excellent stress relief, so go ahead and nail him. That's what he's there for
.
Awesome Music - Given to
centralservices for bringing WMB into the auditory medium. He wrote an original song, now dubbed
Imp's Overture for the movement back before it had a website or its own forum. You can find it in the
thread in Initiatives labeled "The Song".
Yes, really - Yadda rigged it so the first person to sign on with the name "Midna" would get this rank. If you've ever had the pleasure of meeting her here, you'll know what I mean when I say that the intended irony of this action didn't exactly go through as planned
.
Midna has contributed well in her own way, so we feel she deserves to keep the title.
Walking Synthesizer - Given to
Flibster for his substantial contributions to the community and the movement. Not only is he an amazing and dedicated musician, but has helped us out financially a substantial amount since he joined up, and is one of the most passionate Midna supporters we have frequenting this forum.
Catalyst - Given to
blcman upon entering the forum, since it was he who really kicked the Mass Email into gear back on the original Nsider. He's not here much, but we assure you, he is awesome.
These might be subject to change (for which, as usual, you can blame Yadda). Just one more little addition to encourage the growth and activity of our community
.
Oh, and yes, we are still giving out special ranks for particularly prominent people in the community, and eventually, when we need them, moderators (but we don't right now, so please don't pester the admins
).
So, all that having been said, have fun. It may not seem like much, but a large and positively active community is the only way we can bring her back! See you later!
