ranking in ARMA

Postby Mike Chidester » Wed Jan 22, 2003 7:43 pm

Maybe I missed it on the site somewhere, but I'm curious how ranking works in ARMA. I'm aware that the lowest rank in General Free Scholar, and then Senior Free Scholar, and that the highest rank is Provost (or at least, so I've been told), but I assume there are intermediate ranks, as well. So sould someone quickly explain to me how it all works? Thanks.

Hi

Actual, it goes Scholar (which is any student), general Free Scholar, senior Free Scholar, Provost, then Senior Provost. Each rank has its required skills & knowledge base eval test for various weapons, with longsword being the foundation of general Free Scholar. Study Sheets are in offered our private Member's area.

We reserve the "Master" title and don't use it (believing it naive and silly to claim "mastery" over a subject the best of us are still trying to reconstruct).
