Account Teleportation

[God Of Thunder]

Hey there.

I am not sure if this was asked before.
I am usually active on other forum, Where my rank is Hero Member, and my rank is Legendary on another forum. I was wondering if there is any way I can teleport my rank here.

Cheers!

You're a God already - how much higher do you really want to get?

No, sadly here you gain credit for what you do on Casinomeister, not elsewhere.

Away from this forum I am a junior Power Ranger, but here I'm just a moderator.

I presume you are suggesting that you be given some special status here because you claim to have such a thing elsewhere. Pardon my curiosity but what would be the logic in granting your wish? On what grounds would such a thing be justified? I’m trying to think of examples of something similar but not getting very far:

• “I’m the President of the local Cycling Club. Can I be President of everything?"
• “Oh, hey. I own this car. I see you have a car. Can I have yours too please?"
• “Hello! I’m her husband, can I be your husband too?"

You see? Not getting a clear picture on this. Any insights you could offer would be much appreciated.

Well, there is no need to be rude. I asked this simple question because some other forums offer such options. As you may know, newbie accounts have some restrictions, and when someone ranks up, those restrictions get lifted. The forums offer such things to increase the number of users.

Now, since you asked, let me tell you something.

Have you ever heard that some countries are actually paying money to live in certain areas? Why do they do it? It's because they want people to live there. If a forum allows users to teleport their rank from other forums and that increases their activity, I see nothing wrong with it.

Look Thor. You get a dedicated day of the week, so now I just think you are being greedy.

No, it's because they are desperate for people to live there. So they give favour or incentivize them to.

We have no need to do that here nor do we anticipate it in the future.

This is a meritocracy not a nepotocracy.

Also, how would you gauge equivalence? For example would being a top-rated footballer in Mozambique get you straight into a top team over here?

Just spotted this thread

Initial thoughts were this member is about a month and 3 days too late

Seems like people are more busy criticizing a single question. I feel like I asked a dumb question and you guys are teaching me a lesson for that. LOL.

It's not a dumb question, you were just chancing your arm.

I think by now your answer has been unequivocal.

Sweet, we are going to get paid to be here soon?

Wasn’t being rude. Trust me, if I was being rude you’d absolutely know it.

As to what other forums do, that’s great. We don’t so no, we won’t be granting you the forum privileges you’ve requested. That’s not being rude, that’s protecting Casinomeister from being devalued by — for example — having newbies granted rights that everyone else has had to earn. Frankly I see this as something that might somehow be good for you but the advantage to Casinomeister escapes me.

Well, I was expecting simple answers like Yes/NO.
But as you can see, people are following you and criticizing the question. I want to believe you guys do not always treat newbies like this.

I have one more question to ask: can members wear fancy signatures here like other forums? I can see your profile has some signature without anything fancy like Background color, designed logos etc etc.

You have had a simple answer - no we don't import privileges.

As for the other question, you can use an uploaded image/permitted logo in your profile picture circle, but within certain rules i.e. not for advertising or copyrighted.

Background colour displayed I believe is the same for us all.
