I just thought... wouldn't it be good to have two new groups which members can change to (I mean the ones which change according to your post count?)
 
A Sumerian one:
1-Lugal (king)
2-Ensi (governor)
3-Agrig (overseer)
4-Eren (trooper)
 
...And an ancient Greek one:
1-Archon/Tyrannos
2-?
3-?
4-?
 
...I don't know any ancient Greek, but hey! It's an idea...

Its a good idea, but where do you stop..? I could write a list of celtic warrior tutle, viking titles, norman titles, military titles (we might have them) etc etc. But we'll see what the mods say

Yes, I see what you mean, but there is nothing representing that general spectrum of history - I think that particularly the Sumerian one is a good idea.

All valuable suggestions and worth considering. Once reviewed by the staff we will make a decision. No promises for any change though.

Homoioi was another name for Spartiate - a full Spartan citizen and elite in Spartan society
The Perioekoi were the sort of working/middle class in Sparta - free, but not full citizens.
A Metic was a foreigner but free man who payed to reside in Greece (mainly in reference to Athens). A lot of the time they were merchants or traders - their presence being of some economic benefit.
