Greetings, so you want to know about the bastard system? Well your in luck i (Archeon) happen to be the very man who invented it. Lets take a little trip back in time

<Spaces Age Digital Effects>

Archeon: Woo, i've got 1plat again
Thorarin: Only 1? i've got like 15
Archeon: BASTARD!!!

Archeon: Wahoo! 2plat
Kallio: Haha, archeons a real cash noob :P
Thorarin: Yeah, i've got like 20 now
Archeon: BASTARDS!!!!!!

Thorarin: You think i'm rich? Well [XXX] got 30plat, plus people owe him like 40 plus all the shit in his vault
Archeon: BASTARDOOOOOO!!!!!!


Anyway, as you can see i (Archeon) am usually a very poor chappy, so as you can tell the system is based arround our resident Armourcrafter/Bastard Thorarin.

And it works like this...

Rule 1. Thorarin is the 'King' bastard, in this use of the word 'King' means first, he is the first on the bastard system. Thus he earns the title 'King'

Rule 2. The bastard system is a very democratic system. In light that some people might object to being called a bastard we allow you to keep your first name.

For example, Thorarin-Kingbastard.

As you can see the title is hyphenated onto his name.

Rule 3. Assignment to the bastard system is solely the responsability of Archeon, nobody else is allowed to assign people bastard titles. Any such titles are void.

Rule 4. Your rank within the bastard system is assigned by your total cash asset (liquid and asset). All assignments are subject to change at the whim of Archeon.


Assignments,

Bastard God - though Thorarin be the first the bastard god is the absolute biggest bastard in the entire system, the huge ammounts of capital at his command is only equalled by the girth of his belly. And even then only just, this is the greatest bastard of them all and should be treated accordingly

Higher Level 2. Biggerbastardthankingbastadthorarin+1 - the second highest attainable bastard rank, those with signfificantly more money than Higher 1 bastards

Higher Level 1. Biggerbastardthankingbastardthorarin - The first level above kingbastard, those with more money than Thorarin.

Position 1. Kingbastard - the first, held by Thorarin for now and forever. All those on the bastard system should attempt to surpass this level of bastard-ard-ness.

Posisiton 2. Lessofabastardthanthatbastardthorarin - has been within the system for some time, has less money than Thorarin but is still a big bastard in his own right

Position 3. lessofabastardthanthosethatarelessofabastardthanthatbastardthorarin - very low on the bastard scale, hardly worthly of a short snappy title however they are still bastards none the less. They diserve respect.. of sorts

Position 4. Bastard - the lowest of the low, those with capital excessing Archeon but no where near the vast sums of capital at the commands of the higher bastards. These are bastards, but only just!

Sub-Position 1. Probi-Bastard - Pathetic, these wannabe's will never ammount to anything, maybe one day they will be bastards but for the moment they are dirt, dirty dirt!!


And thats it, the bastard system in full. I hope this explains it, as a standard of yourself on the bastard scale Archeons personal finance surrently stands at 2plat 600gold. If you wish to apply for a spot on the coverted bastard system please tell me your capitail and a rank will be assigned... maybe.

Good day.

heh

I got 700g with my entire armor borrowed from Jere (yes, i got the entire second epic armor from her, hurray!) and i soon only will have 500g cuz i need to give money to me alts, where does that put me? of the scale?

Probi-Bastard, you need to have more cash than i do to begin to rank on the scale ^_^

<cries> i'll never be a bastard! :P

Does armour count on this scale ?

I have umm, 13p of SC stuff, 3p of nice items.. and 2p of stuff ?

Who's gonna be the lucky bastard to get all this stuff if/when I leave...

The King Bastard of course!

Why the king bastard? why not the guy that made it, i'm poor i need money more than he does... really :D

Oooo, bump :D

Still using Grilf's SC set too :)
I'm currently trying to figure out a 'Powered by TOA' SC set, but it's not easy ;)

4p but no armor on my main.. sold it...how high is that?

I think that puts you on level 4. I dropped to level 5 once again after purchasing new armor hehe

I think Thora deserves a higher rating. Have you ever checked his basement? Three chessed filled with midget pr0n, and he's keeping it all for himself :(

OMG THE BASTARD!! That was MY midget pr0n! He stole it!

On a side note, how the hell did I manage to make 'chessed' out of 'chests'?

eh..........I se now that you Archelon need medication and.......50years rehab talking with an brain-doctor or what their names are in english :). And i have about 50g???so i aint even an porbi-bastard??

Wahoo!

according to these old platiniums I'm getting close to being a King bastard next to Thorarin ^_^

I'm poor nowadays in DAoC :(
Well, at least compared to the money I used to have and compared to what the average DAoC player has :P

oh, I can soon be the cash King then!!
