Ciao Senatore,

well if this was the Italian goverment it would mean a jet waiting for you in Ciampino and a hefty pension.

For the forums its just a bit of fun. Rankings change based on the number of posts you have

Thanks Ronald - I just wondered how many postings and what's the next level ... actually I think maybe it's time I got a life.

Sad about the lack of jets provided though - how about a horse?

Correct me if I'm wrong anybody.... to become a Senator you need to have posted 100 times and a Patrician is 300.

Perhaps we should have some really grand title for 1000, any ideas?

I would suggest "Consul"... although, in the Roman Empire, if I still remember my history lessons, there were only 2 Consuls appointed every year. Well, we do not need to be too strict, but I think that there would be more than 2 people qualifying for the title in this Forum.
