I think we also need to make some more ranks at like 1000 posts and maybe some after that. Now that I'm level 5 I need something to work up to!

I'd say this is a good idea, buuuuuuuut. As this is an impartial forum it would be missleading to have laser names instead of post counts. Maybe do it in power terms. 500 posts would be half a watt or something, i've not put much thought into it, but to keep the forums fair it would be best not to do it. unless you can choose which high powerd laser you want to be, as many companys have lasers of the samepower or there abouts.

ps: i have no idea how timelord got hold of my pic, but maybe i should stop braiding my chest hair

Not worth going lower than mW IMO...
Start at say... 1mw, 5mw, 10, 30, 50, 100, 250, 500, 1W, 2W, 4W and for the mods....

6-25= Pot Moded 30mw
26-50=X series 85mw
51-100=Alpha 105mw

251-500= NOVA 250mw
500-1000=RPL 325mw!
1000+ =Class IV Hercules!!!

Lv 3 =101-250
Lv 4 =251-499
Lv 5 =500+

a full list is here:

http://www.epanorama.net/documents/lights/laserclass.html

we could have:

class I laser, class II laser, class IIIa laser, class IIIb laser, class IV laser

personally i like this idea more than mW, because its more original. i remember some other laser forums using mw in the past for ranks

Hey - aren't there some NEW classifications that were "recently" announced ? If someone has a link to that, it would give more "level" options !
