Red shirts? It's even more offensive than newbie.

What about Enseign? Or farmer? (Remember, before Luke was a Jedi, it was a farmer... Since every ranks is a Jedi rank... you got my idea)
Before you, pitiful trolls, invade this forum take note that:

A more accurate Newbie ranking would be "Youngling."

How about "Little Kiddie". Jedi Knights usually start training when they are really young.

I really like David's idea of once you get a large amount of posts you can choose your own name that Wong finds acceptable.

Interesting idea. I added "Youngling" (good idea), and "Jedi Council Member" (1500+ posts). As for uber-posters getting custom ranks, that seems reasonable. Just ask when you get there.

PS. Regarding the "Sith Apprentice" title, it's currently for the mods. However, I reserve the right to arbitrarily make anyone a Sith apprentice. My dreaded Legions of Doom can always use new recruits :)

Jedi Council Member sounds like a good idea. Thanks for taking the suggestion.



BTW, Red-shirt is something we can use for Village Idiots that are obvious Trekkies.
