5.6. User Ranks
Users are labeled by so called "user ranks". Apart from a rank name, users are marked with a rank image. There are fixed defined ranks, they will be assigned optionally for a certain performance (e.g. after 900 points), for certain groups (e.g. members of the team), of for the gender. Additionally, users may have an individual title.
Points
Users get points for activity: E.g. a created thread returns ten points, a new post five points.
