We have different ranks on our forum.
Basic ranks are Napoleonic and if you don't have any special prefferences you have Napoleonic ranks. If you prefer another period and have at last 30 posts you write a private message to me and I redirect to the groups which have another ranks. If you have 30 posts or more you can also create new grades - if they would have been accepted by admins they wolud appear.
Ranks are here: in Polish but you will easily understand most of it:
