Ranks have been updated! We had them before, but now they have cute little pixel-art Skittles, made by yours truly. There are 12 ranks in all, 11 of them with 'Levels'. Each of the 11 ranks has 5 levels, and each level gets a Skittle. The Skittle order is Yellow, Orange, Green, Purple, Red. The final rank has no levels.
Other than the 12 normal ranks, there are also 2 'Special Ranks' that each last for one post. You get these ranks at a significant number of posts, and the next post goes back to the normal ranks.
Ranks are acquired by posting; the more you post, the higher your level for that rank gets. After you've acquired all the levels for one rank, you will be shifted to Level 1 of the next rank.
The amount of posts it takes to increase rank/level increases the higher you get. The first ranks are easy to level up. But toward the end, it can take as many as 500 posts to level up!
We hope you have fun with the ranks/levels system. Happy posting! <3
