Here's my stab at it:
1:Grand Master of the Order (Fiddleback)
2:Grand Mistress of the Order (Kat)
3: Master of the Archives (RP lead), Quartermaster (Crafting lead), Blademaster (PvE lead), Master at Arms (PvP lead)
4: Chosen of Revan (general officers)
5: Hand of Revan (Senior member, can't resist putting it where I could get it)
6: Revanchist/Crusader (Full member)
7: Initiate (Not a noob, new member)
8:Seeker (Nerf-Herder if necessary)
Level 3 has multiple titles to reflect having multiple leads. It made more sense to me to list it that way to show they are on the same level.

Liking where this is progressing.
My only two cents...agree with ranks defining roles in guild...ie officers...rp lead...crafting lead...etc.
All the names proposed for each role are equally good...just hard to decide which ones i like...maybe propose a couple different lists (top three) and then let the guild vote?

Quote: If we have an RP Officer-specific name, I would prefer "Archivist" over any of the suggestions along the lines of "Diplomat." I see myself as more of a lorekeeper and teacher than a spokesperson. I suggested "Voice of Revan" because RP is an innately social activity. However, since you're the only one with that title in the Order, it's really comes down to whatever you and Fiddleback decide. Does the Exiled Lords plan to have their own RP Coordinator, Crafting Coordinator, etc? Or will those roles be filled by the same people in both guilds?

vadersson wrote: Hey gang,
May I make some further suggestions?
One thing I discovered in my STO fleets is that it can be a good idea to define specific positions. DarthGM originally suggested the following:
1: Guildmaster (Important note; there can only be one GuildMaster, per the Guiild Rank system, so only 1 person is getting this title at a time)
2: Senior Officer
3: Junior Officer
4: Veteran Member
5: Member
6: N00b Member
7: Recruit
However, since TOR lets you set up more ranks, I suggest we use that power. That said, here is my suggestion.
(Note I go lowest to highest)
1. Recruit - This rank is for new applicants that are on probation.
2. Junior Member - People that are beyond being recruited, but less that say 3 months in the guild. (Not sure we really need this frankly.)
3. Member - People that are members of the guild for over 3 months.
4. Senior Member - People that have been members for over 1 year.
Officer Break
5. General Officer Pool - These are the basic officers of the guild.
6. Senior Officers - These are the more experienced general officers
Guild leadership Break - The people above here are the high ranking guild leaders with appointed jobs. I believe that this will help people find who is in charge of what easier.
7. PvP Leader - This will be the person in charge of PvP
8. RP Leader - This would be the person in charge of RP
9. Crafting Leader - This person is in charge of crafting.
etc, etc, etc as needed. You could have class leaders and any other specific leader positions.
10. Vice Guild Leader - Kat
11. Guild leader - Fiddleback
So, that is my idea. Take it for what you will.
Thanks,
Duncan That was pretty much done in my first suggestion... bd09 wrote: Since all sort of titles are being tossed around, I'll toss some more into the mix:
Rank 8 – Cognotio (newbies)
Rank 7 – Vigilans (3 month member)
Rank 6 – Adsertor (full Member)
~Officers~
Rank 5 – Eques Vexillo Reven (all other Officers)
Rank 4 - Proconsule Bellum (officer of PvP)
Rank 3 - Vicarius Relationem (officer of Role Play)
Rank 2 - Magister et Imperator Reven (Kat)
Rank 1 - Magister Gand Conservator Reven (Fiddleback) But I guess all the latin freaked you all out.

I like Duncan's suggestion of having more ranks & tying them to functional roles. Since Fiddleback said we can have a description of the rank, I'm cool with using more RP flavored titles. As long as our members can find who/what they need with relative ease, we should be good.
That being said, I don't have any particular title in mind. I'm happy with being "Vice" or "Assistant" or "Co-" whatever FB's title ends up being.

Further experimentation in the latest build reveals a hard limit of 10 ranks.

Easy enough, drop or combine the listed 10 & 11 to establish the n00b rank.

Nothing new for me to add except to say I like having specific SW related rank titles. If we're not able to specify what each rank means in game, perhaps we should have the descriptions as subheadings to a guild member list on our site.

Fulon's titles are interesting if you want to go with the 'R' theme, but in that case every title should start with R. As such, I would suggest the following changes:
Knight-Redeemer --> Redeemer Knight
Master-Redeemer --> Redeemer Master
Reach of Revan (can stay the same, or change to Revan's Grasp)
Hand of Revan --> Revan's Hand
Lord Resurgent --> Resurgent Lord
Lord Revanant --> Revanant Lord / Revanant Battlemaster
Fist of Revan --> Revan's Fist
Blade of Revan --> Revan's Blade
However, the bigger problem I see with the theme is that it places Hand of Revan (Revan's Hand) out of reach as a title for members, as only Fiddleback would have it. Switching Hand of Revan with a different name doesn't work well, as it sounds more majestic than the other names on the list. That's the downside of only choosing names that start with 'R'.

Having everything start with R seems like a gimmick to me. If we want to go that route, I wouldn't be entirely opposed, but RPers are not likely to appreciate a rank structure that is played for humor so much.
