As you might notice, we have several Member groups now.
Earlier, we only have a status text showing this, but now we also have a group image icon to make the forum more colourful.

Your groups will increase depending on your post count.
The group itself is similar to the one Panda Medic suggested earlier at another topic with very little changes.
The current Member groups and the post count required is as follows.

• Member - 0 [no group icon image]
• Poring - 1
• Rocker - 10
• Eclipse - 30
• Maya - 60
• Moonlight - 100
• Orc Hero - 150
• Deviace - 210
• Doppelganger - 280
• Baphomet - 360
• Kafra - 450
• Forum Bot - 600

During this change, everyone will have the default "Member" group.
But in case a Member has 50 post count currently, his/her member group will gradually goes up until Eclipse with each post s/he made [51 - Poring, 52 - Rocker, 53 - Eclipse].

Eventhough the purpose is to make Members more interested to post on the board, spam will not be tolerated.
Spamming will result in warn level up or ban, so please do not spam.

And last, in case you have difficulties/questions or notice a bug [eg: incorrect group, broken image, etc], please reply in this topic and we will try to fix it as soon as possible.

Thanks,
The RBO Team

Yea!!!!!!!!! It is pretty sweet that the forums are starting to become more related to RBO itself. Just to give everyone a idea of how they will look, I am posting a picture of all the current image changes.



Thanks much to f3rd1 and his MAD photoshop skillz.

Truly wonderful, Deviace ftw! =^^=

I really like the kafra one.
By the way, before that people with something like 600 could change the writing above the member level icon (Like garret's "the l33tness).
I was wondering what about that? Is it still valid?

Yes, it's still valid...
The limit is 800 IIRC, it's not changed from earlier version...

the new grup icon are awesome!

but i'm still disturbed with the BOT thing at 600+,dislikes bot more than anything if you ask me>.<

maybe change it to any other monsters?its kind of a bad conotation giving someone a BOT rank when they got a ton of posts history,its like they're spammers or something........


but thats just me anyways cool "eclipse version" garret&CO. kudos to all of you!

hehehe i like the moonlight picture so cute

I love these things! Great job. ^,^

@ wodash
The Forum Bot rank is somewhat similar to 'Have no life' rank we can see at another board...
It's up to U if U want to think about it negatively [insult] or positively [active member]...

Kafra appears at stage 8, and Bot appears at stage 9...
Stage 9 is the bonus stage, and IMO it's the hardest stage to unlock [compared to Ex-Stages] since we need to unlock Novice first and clearing stage 8 using Novice...

Plus about the Forum Bot icon, it has a level max aura...
Screenshot topic for reference: http://www.ragnarokbattle.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=164
This also to describe that the one with the Bot icon is already reaching the max member group possible...

So the title and the icon was made with good thought in mind...
And personally, I think the Bot icon is the best looking one compared to others...

Yeah.... Youre totally right!!!

Indeed, I consider myself a botter of the RBO forums, I am soooo evil XD

These graphics spruce things way up for us members, makes it more RBO-ish. Keep up the good work, administration!

nooooooh,it can't beeeee~ the best one is the moonlight,t3h m00nl1ght! she's like saying "you've used sara chan's patch right?now run for your lives!!!!!"

btw,aura bots are rare today.........i'm feeling like playing stage 9 again to catch a glimpse of em>.<

Lol. Thats just like forums too. Bots r rare here. We have like...3? out of almost 21000.

The kafra one was pretty sweet to have for a bit.

Agreed!

now i'm an orc,noooooh!

but its pretty cool,oh well nevermind about that

if there's anything a could suggest could you change the orc hero's pose?i cant see his face!the "mega scream" pose would look cool especially with the scream effect kicked in


anyways,GJ,keep up the good work and thank j00

I've tried to edit several pose, but when his hand & sword is lowered to his side, the image width is too much...
If I resize the Orc Hero to make the hand and sword fit, his body height will be around Eclipse...

Check the 2nd post [Garrett's] to compare one size to the others...

It really is awesome!! It really amuses me... I like the Kafra pose and doppel pose, Kafra doing Vigor E. xD

well,at least you tried thanks for listening to me>.<,

about the eclipse sized O.hero..........it might be cute,baby orc heros

Now theres 4 forum bots.

The porings so fun to look at. Its just staring into space with its crazy seemingly possessed eyes.

Too bad orc hero couldnt be changed. Its just wierd not seeing its face.

Yeah... it's expression is like... "Uhh.... yeah..."

My questions is... will you guys be adding more when the time comes?

technically your a mod, you just have as much posts as a forum bot. =DDDDDDD

me too!,but that would cramp the perfect placing of the stages.........................

maybe add angeling and some other EX bosses as the mod icon and leave the male and female GM icons to the two admins G man and F man?that'll add more colors to the boards

No, I don't think we plan to change it...
The current one should be sufficient for now...
Maybe more group later, when the board has more than 100 forum bots...

I agree with f3rd1 for now, the member groups will last a good amount of time.

agreed,as long as the forum bots are not real BOT's....

alright,next target:kafra!!!!!!!

Lol. I should add that the custom title is actually more than 800 posts.

too bad i doesnt come with a custom croup too,a super girrafe group would be sick!>.<

next target:custom title mad orc hunter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that means you need about 500 more posts. XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

its a long way i know,but one has to set goals if they want to become a true man,thats a quote of a very cool guy once.

with that said the goal is set,first:kafra,next:the mad orc hunter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just hope the electricity dont mess with me anymore or i will fail (see my mage guide replys to know why)

lol you skipped BOT

yeah,i wish i would stay dopple/bapho/kafra icon until the post hits 800+,BOT's are really butting in the way,could i just skip it?>.<

man i hate BOT's

the old title for that group was Mancrewpo(the name of the bot) personally I think its better than "Forum Bot"

hmm,mancrewpo?thats better than forum BOT but its still not satisfying,why not just richard?or merlin,they're stupid,but at least they're humans and not BOT's(plus you DO fight them in stage 9,so they count as a boss too aside from the lv 99 BOT.......)

Its cuz those r stupid names for bots. Also, they rnt really counted as bosses, only mobs.

oh well,cant have anything we want can we,and its still a looong way to go so there's still hope for some changes till i got there

Id be the only person in the group, id keep everybody else out.


Still, bots have their own meaning, like it or not, its better than kafra.


Yeah, that name was sweet. Most ppl couldnt tell wth it was unless they saw the bots in the background talking.

thats if you own the non jap RBO OR use the patch>.<,anyways i was running around in sphinx and was shocked to see a *gasp* robo GM's! now that is cool,if you want to be a bot,why not go straight to becoming a GM>.<,maybe it happens in the real RO too hence it was added to the RBO.

o.O

Thats cuz we need groups for admin and mod, which is the main GM and the subGM of RBO. If members had them no1 would know whos who.

no I think you can tell that the BOT's name is Mancrewpo in japanese verion. I have japanese(jap is a racial slur) verion with no english patch(cause I dont need it)

right,my bad,the characters name were usually written in alphabet,it is what he's saying that needs translation,sorry bout that>.< "i'm not a bot,dont notice my shaking" LOL

Wow, bot =D
