what, me worry?
True to(rookie) form, I'm lost. I'm sure there is a nice chap out there more than willing to guide me throughout my troubles...
I remember when I first gazed through the Apolyton forums I noticed different folks had different titles,settlers, chief, and so on... Now I cannot find where the info is on the progression. Sure it's a joy settle'n but I'm sure there is so much more out there for me
Thanks guys

Hey, whilst my bag ' O ' questions is out...
what are the Ban smiles about?(you guessed it , I'm not computer guy{as evident by my lousy grammer and spelling}, yet I'll stay at it till I stop,hmmm.).
Thanks again

The number after the "titles" is the post count. So when you get 31 posts under your belt, you will be a chieftain. I hope this helps answer you question.

 You are right, I really should have just edited my first post (which I try to do - honest!  ). But after posting my first post, I surfed the other threads then came back to this one and realized that I didn't indicate what the numbers meant....yes, blame it on laziness - it was easier to post a quick reply instead of editing my original post. 
Ok, back to the topic at hand .... oh wait, this was the topic.
EDIT: By the way, no thanks needed...I'm glad I could help you out.
See! I do edit my posts.

And, adding on to the post, isn't 500 the mark of a custom avatar? I just reached it, and I do believe I can have one of my own now....hmm, whatever shall I use?
As to the ban smilies, I too would have to voice my ignorance to that one. Could some of the more knowledgable posters inform us?

Instead of typing: "I don't want to be banned" - or a facimile there of, you have the option of using the banned smiley.
Instead of typing: "let me free/unban so and so" you can use the unbanned smiley....and so forth 
They are just more options you can use to show your feelings/concerns/fears/hopes/sarcasms/etc... on your posts.
If anybody else has a better explaination - go for it.

Okay so what do you mean by banned? Banned from the sight? Banned from a thread?

Yes it was, but I still remember it.
And no this is not a spam, after you get to Emperor, it is no longer a concern.

What if you get banned after reaching the 500 milestone? Will you lose the chance of creating an avatar?

Ming is, but it's also possible that his Deity-ship is simply a function of his status. I don't know of any non-official Deities.

Look at it this way: Once you make the title of "Prince/Princess" you are only a couple hundred posts away from your customized Avatar. This also give you the time to work on your "perfect" image of you.

Example of using a "ban" smilie:
- I want to be able to set up a basketball match using my lazy workers in Civ3!!! 
Actually, I don't want that, but you got the idea...

Over the Ages most all of you have been quite helpful. I have received many different tones of response,for these you have my gratitude.
The ban example is surely unique;how about 'Midnight Basketball ' for the slave workers so as to keep them off the streets at night? 
Thanks even more for your support    {hope this is not overkill,yet it say a lot}

That's why I typed "let me free" - Free in what ever sense. Then followed it with "unban so and so" - Asking that a another person be unbanned.
