This is a minor point, but "earl" is actually a higher title than "baron". "Earl" is a British title, equivalent to the old continental European title of "Count". Here's the old European ranking system for nobility:
 
Squire/Squiress
Knight/Dame
Baron/Baroness
Viscount/Viscountess
Count/Countess (Earl/Countess)
Marquis/Marchioness
Duke/Duchess
Archduke/Archduchess
Grand Duke/Grand Duchess
Prince/Princess
King/Queen (Czar/Czarina)
Emperor/Empress

What happens when you reach the 10,000 plus posts? Do you get wings?

Sure why don't yous all just decide what rank we all have on a popularity contest? The most popular just get titles like 'Constantine's favourite' or something...

We could even have boogy titles like 'spammer supreme' or 'adds nothing but posts much'.

Now that would be interesting.

it was too funny to be ownage.

Normally, ownage requires the victim of said condition to be morose, sullen, and neglected.

I'm just laughing at the good joke.

Is it possible to get a custom title/ranking?

I assume that titles like "Lord High Master Of Everything And The Kitchen Sink" would be reserved for the higher-ups, but if it's possible to be something besides a colonel...

It does not make sense to put Shogun there.
A shogun means general of the army.
In feudal hierarchy, the shogun is higher than all other nobles, and only technically subordinate to the emperor.
 
You are right of course, but I don't dare to change it - everyone might be degraded once again - consider it an unexpected reward for new members Smile
