I like 'Forum Elder'. It should be for good bot builders who have stayed on the forum for at least 2 years.

Forum Elder might suit, or maybe Experienced User.

I agree with Bubbleman on this. But not 'Forum old-timer', just something a bit different.

Small bump, but oh well.

if people ask for these things because they've been on for, say, 6 years, you should give them titles like "forum middle-ager" instead of AU and maybe "forum old-timer" instead of vet; if they deserve to have AU or vet status by doing something for the community afterwards, they can have it. an example would be, say, someone whose been on for five years, whose done nothing for the community, asking for vet status; instead of giving them vet status give them, say, "Forum old-timer" status instead. good idea?

If we keep getting AUs and Vets at this rate, then everyone will probably be one or the other by 2012...

I think we should just stop promoting everyone unless fully deserved and get on with the point of the forum - eg RA2.
As someone said in the thread, can't remember who, even if your 'status' changes, people won't think any different of you.
I think you should really have to earn these statuses and be picked by those responsible - eg ACAMS.
I don't feel I've done enough for AU or anything, I've just been a forum member, and I think those who ask for these statuses *coughyouknowwhoi'mtalkingaboutcough* are a bit sad. You earn it. Like in actual real life, you earn money (etc), you don't just walk up to people and shout at them telling them to give it to you.
Some people are deserving of higher statuses I will admit, but I don't think we need to promote everyone.

Rant overr.

One of the things I hate is the "Airtight chassis" crap, it's the complete opposite IRL.

Actually,

You know that IRL, bot builders especially in the smaller weight classes do make tight chassis?

And you brought this up before, but I can't find it.

Wow, I don't think I've made any Grammar errors today.
See your previous post in this thread.

It would be cool for you to start a showcase.

You switched tenses mid-sentence, and "grammar" shouldn't be capitalized :P

Starcore's packs made me create RA2GE. For those who felt inadequate.

Blame Starcore, Rejected, infiniteinertia, and Pwn.......I had just about quit building bots about the time Starcore did SCv2.
