While everybody is special, some people are more 'special' than others. The special ranks here denote that.

Josh is an admin here; all of the admins have custom titles. The mods are all title as "knight Templar". Custom titles are sometimes rewards in contests, like our "master builder" and "illuminators". Sometimes titles are used as gentle reprimands-like occasionally someone will be "newb of the week" if they persist in newbish behavior despite repeated messages from the admins. And sometimes it's just the admins kidding around. Those reward and punishment titles are (in theory at least) temporary. There are a few other people with custom titles; these tend to be people who have been contributing members of this community for years.

Sorry for ressurecting a somewhat dead topic; I'd first like to apologize for raising said topic.

Second, are there ever going to be little pictures/images for each rank, like BrickForge? 'Cause I'm sure there are plenty of people on here that can make some. :) Sorry if this question has been asked before. Thanks.

Only special ranks, like permanent gong farmer, have special images attached to them. CC is unlike certain forums that focus on multiple avatars, moving gifs, giant signature images, etc. We prefer our primary focus to be intelligent conversations about Lego Castle.

He who thinks you should look at the box that says "Quaraga" if you want to find out his username (about as useful to you as his real name). he only wants you to look so he can laugh about you looking there because he's a total smart...

Ranks such as yours reflect some kind of behavior that the admins may find as unacceptable. Take it has a warning.

Do Admin's and Mod's get to choose their title? And what rank is Knight Templar at, because I've seen a few members with it.

The Knights Templar are the mods. And I think the admins have too much fun giving eachother titles than themselves ;)

Yup, Knight Templars are the Mods and the Admins get to choose their titles.
