How to get your Custom Rank back

[Onkel Neal]

How to get your Custom Rank back... free and easy!

One aspect of the forum conversion that escaped automation, the custom ranks did not get passed along. If you have a custom rank on the old forum, you will get your custom rank restored on this forum.

To assist the admin, please post in this thread your Custom Rank title.

Not sure what your old Custom Rank title was? Visit the old forum here and have a look. Find a thread you posted on. Remember, the URL to see the main page of the old forum is:
http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/index.php (http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/index.php)

Links to topics and forums should still work.

I was Subsim Administrator... :roll:
More seriously, I did not have a custom rank, but I thought that I would go back into the archives and look up peoples custom ranks, to speed up the process.
User: Rank:
Duncan Idaho - Marine Boy
Bellman - Trident
Dowly - Silly Navy Dude
robj250 - SubGuy
Brewster Pilot - Sonar Guy (Dont know about this guy, a week ago he was claiming that he was leaving subsim)
Perilscope - I Seek U
turnerg - US Marine
Sharkstooth - Nurse
FAdmiral - Pacific Aces Dev Team
JScones - SH3 Commander
sergbuto - Pacific Aces Dev Team

Old pack over at the General Forum :D
Konovalov - Aussie Skipper
Bill Nichols - Master of Defense
Skybird - One Who Soars
Sailor Steve - Chief Of The Boat
Drebbel - Dutch Sea Lord
XabbaRus - Navy Seal
Abraham - Dutch Commodore
The Avon Lady - Über Mom

I hope that this will help and speed up things a bit. I will try to extend the list later on.

Very nice, thanks!

It was Rearing Wolf, but I'd like you to change it to Just Another Modder, if possible. Also, I was a moderator for the DW Mods forum, if you are going to impliment these kinds of features for users again.

Please let me know if you need me to resend the avatar.

Thanks.

Cheers,
David

Hi Neal.
I used to be "Subsim Mod Master". A title I retained from my old SH2 days :D

[XabbaRus]

Navy Seal was me...

[TLAM Strike]

Is 'Navy Seal' a custom rank or just a normal one?

I ask because I just got it at 5,120 posts.:hmm:

Many pages of postings follow my posting and I see that they got their rank back.

Sorry... then I would prefer being scratched.

Thank you.

Nice forum nevertheless.

Can't remember what rank I had but i definitely didn't have this big red target painted on my forehead!
If I remember correctly, my avatar was a sailor standing infront of the US flag. I used to be confused for Neal in the early days with that avatar. :up:

Ahh there we go, my rank was Subsim Moderator, thought it might of been sharkbait or something.

[John O]

Not sure of my rank since I'm an infrequent poster but I joined the original forum 10 Jan 2002 and had 110 posts according to my old profile.

Thanks for all the work you do!!!

[RickC Sniper]

I was a Subsim Moderator at the other forum but I am not currently a moderator.

I'd like to go back to the handle I had even before that if I could. It was
"undetectable"

My old custom av....http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v46/RickC/navygal.gif

If you prefer to stick more to theme the "Grey Wolf" avatar would do.

.....thanks Neal

Hi! I have been away for a few weeks - life got in the way of my time at sea! I was a Boson in the old forum (63 posts). Would like to get my rank back. Thanks!

I think we can do better than that, and get that Yank flag out, put a proper Naval flag back there ;)
