An idea I had was to show LP standings as a forum tag. If anyone is interested in helping me make a cool lore case, please reply to this thread like this:
"Standing" - "Honorary Title"
Gallente 10 General 9 Lord Marshall ... ...
Caldari 10 Chancellor
Minmatar 10 Warlord
Amarr 10 High Priest
etc.

Honestly, that alone would get me doing a lot more FW. Would it only be the highest standing that shows up on the tag?

Largely off topic but what's the plausibility of having a high enough title 'unlocking' access to the Aurum suits like those found in the [Faction] Combat Packs..? I wouldn't mind being able to just drop some Aurum on the 'Federal Marine' GK.0 vanity suit instead of having to dish out a whole $10 on the entire pack.

Gallente:
Level 1 Federal Marine; Militiaman
Level 2 Federal Marine; Proximity Soldier
Level 3 Federal Marine; Field Soldier
Level 4 Federal Marine; Specialist
Level 5 Federal Marine; Agent
Level 6 Federal Marine; Corporal
Level 7 Federal Marine; Sergeant
Level 8 Federal Marine; Lieutenant
Level 9 Federal Marine; Captain
Level 10 Federal Marine; Federal Marshal

When questioned about what the various empires would call their mercenaries months ago, I believe the community came up with the fact that in eve Minmatar naming schemes are done based off of norse mythology, Gallente after Greek, Caldari after animals/Japanese myth, and amarr after religious stuff / knightly orders.
Basing it off the concept of 'immortals' in each stated thema, I'll toss these out.
Level 10 Minmatar - Einherjiar Level 10 Gallente - Elysian or Hecatonchires Level 10 Caldari - Rasetsu (it's kind of migrated from indian culture, but they're ultra-violent deathfeeder type things, unbound by karmic cycle - we're looking at the Buddhist incarnation primarily) Level 10 Amarr - (I'm kind of stumped on this, I want to go with Empyrean, Archon, or Sefrim)
The point I'd like to make is to *separate them from military titles*, Immortal mercenaries are creatures of practically mythic might - warriors without peer and we should fall somewhere outside of typical military foundations. We're called in when nothing else will do, when it would be suicide for anyone else to even try - and then we go and achieve the impossible.

sounds cool, I am also working on the side on properly naming the racial and the role, inspired by Kagehoshi's old thread i.e. Amarr Sentinel = Dreadnought, Minmatar Logi - Shaman, those kinds of lines. It would be nice to have a cool consistent reference.

You well know MINA that to call oneself a Sef would be tantamount to blasphemy.

I think I like your Amarr standing lv 10 suggestions more than mine. Scutariorum Imperatrix sounds appropriately fancy, though not sure why an empress of a bodyguard would be on a battlefield light-years away from her. You should come up with something equally fancy and latin.

Instead of it showing whatever you had the highest of, we should be able to choose in the "settings" tab near the corp/alliance tag settings.
This would mean that people who may play less for a certain race due to whatever reason can still show off their standings. For example, I know a few people I play with are Caldari loyalists however, due to there being less of a war effort for Caldari they could very likely have higher Amarr standings.
This is a very cool idea though, it'll give me a reason to show off Amarr standings
The Amarr scout bonus is like the old Amarr sentinel bonus. No one needed 25% reduction to overheat damage on a heavy;_;

So here's me attempting to sell my list of easy to digest Caldari ranks while folding in ancient Bushido tradition, corporate jargon, and napanii conjugation every now and again.
I) Shaatei (Lowest ranking member. IE "Ensign Ricky.") II) Nit+ìhei (Equal to a Private) III) Goch+ì (Corporal) IV) Guns+ì (Sergeant) V) S+ìch+ì (Sergeant Major) VI) Chuigun (Lieutenant) VII) Taiikugun (Captain) VIII) Sh+ìsa (Major) IX) Taisa (Colonel) X) Taish+ì (General)
Above that would be Dai-Gensui but that would have to be a Grand Marshal on par with a commander-in-chief. I assumed that a typical hired grunt wouldn't be able to ever reach that level without deep corporate ties and sponsorship and is probably better left to NPCs who operate the Peacekeepers themselves. (And frankly it conflicts with the already preexisting napanii/caldari word for forget, so it would clash with pre-existing lore.)
Now if you need to drop the lines over the Os to make it more practical that would be gucci, but I assure you there is a method to all of this madness. Certain traditional ranks have been modified to be one word based from two-word rankings used in Japan during the industrial era. I figure that gives it a nice fusion between Nordic and Asiatic syntax, while at the higher echlons like Shosa are shortened since the term used for 'officer' is implied.
Before anyone asks: Yes, I post in the IGS. Yes, I have a lot of free time.
