And yet, does a Village Legend that posts very rarely, albeit with quality, do any good to RV?


And does your post complaining in a topic that is to announce the new Legends that have been voted in by their peers doing any good for RV?

I venture to say, with a resounding voice, NO!

Now let's get this topic back on track. This isn't about why or why they were not chosen. Obviously all these people met the requirements set forth by the admins and had more than enough votes from their peers to be selected. There is more to a Legend than the amount of posts they make and how often they visit the site. I see no reason to discuss this as it already has been done. Any further discussion can be kept to yourself or through PM's with admins.

Let's just give these people what they deserve, a nice clean topic to congratulate them on their achievements.


Thank you.

Junesetsfire hasn't been on since December 15th.

His last post was on December 12th. A single post.

His last big batch of posts was on September 20th, and his last fully active time was during August.

Logic, why must you fail me so?


Why cant you let this stuff go? theres always good reasons they pick legends. And its NOT about post counts. :|

He isn't talking about postcount, He's talking about the time he was last active.

It'll be one of the last ones they'll ever see, especially if they venture into the Legend Forums.

Activity, meh. There's always a reason they may not show up for awhile, even if they dont say anything about it..

I mean come on, Cueball was given legend status, and yet i had barely known about him (possibly due to his low post count :roll: ) . but i found out later on he was an awesome guy, although i had no idea what he did to get it. ^_^;

this isnt a rant, so you know. mmk?

Congrats to all those picked!

For those not picked, keep your heads up, there is always next year. Ill share a 3-part secret for how to get promoted at RV:

Activity + Friendliness + Helpfulness = Success!

I live by it, or try to at least. :)

Friend of Hiker
Hey woah, the list's finally out. Took long enough. :-s

Grats to everyone - All well deserved. And trust me when I say that there was a lot of discussion behind each and every person. What some people don't stop to realize is what goes on behind the scenes; There are users who constantly help the moderators by notifying them of avatars/signatures over the limits, spam posts, and the like. The legend rank is given to model villagers who contribute positively to RuneVillage - And those types of acts are certainly a positive contribution.

Basically what I'm saying is that in a case like June (a spell of inactivity), their contributions as a model villager aren't just tossed aside. Everyone lives life, and things come up that limit activity - But should this stop someone from receiving a deserved rank? I don't think so.

Either way, complaining isn't very respectful - Especially when, as I said, "behind the scenes" contributions play into promotion consideration as well. Everyone promoted is deserving of the rank - bottom line. And that's not to say that anyone not promoted isn't deserving. Just keep contributing positively to RuneVillage and I'm sure you'll stand out for doing so. :D Apple summed it up in a great way.

But as it's been said, let's keep this topic to the congratulations of those who were promoted, rather than why or why not people were or were not promoted. ^_^;

Congrats again guys. :)

Doesn't always work that way unfortunately.

Congrats guys :P

Andrey, I remember when I was like that, but does it really matter? It's a rank on an internet forum, I would never pick some of the people they have picked over the last few years but there's no point worrying about it. You will get to a point where you will feel very stupid you ever cared about ranks or the reasons people are getting them :-s

I don't think it works that way. O_o... that's like saying, through the transitive property, since I met John, and John met the president, I met George W. Bush. :-s

Cheers mate, your unlucky not to get it yourself.#

Good to get Legend with Tal, only shame is that there isn't a retrospective legendness for Son Of Hades, he deserved it so much when he was here :(

Oh well,

I AM LEGEND

You deserve it possibly the most <3 <3

I don't know many of those people, but I'm sure they were chosen in good faith. Keep up the good work.

Zizi, Willow, Marik and Aragon, you guys really deserve that rank, some of the nicest people at RuneVillage. Congratulations, and well done on all your hard work!
