Important: Rank Changes
Announcement By: eGO Council

<div style="width: 550px; text-align: center" align="center">eGO Council and the Community Managers have made a decision to restructure the ranking system in the community. The Council team felt that, as a gaming community, an effort ought to be made to incorporate a more creative and interesting rank system. With the success of the Star Wars: The Old Republic eGO guilds, they saw the opportunity to use a similar structure for the entire community.

All of the rank icons on the eGO website, and the ranks in the Ventrilo server have already been converted. Until more in-depth instructions can be worked out, the administrative team will continue to wear its usual tags. Some leadership have already been instructed to wear the new tag, so you may encounter that while gaming with a leadership member.

The Jedi High Council (Council Members) and Masters of Order (Community Managers) are excited to see how this change pans out. Please bear with us while we work out all of the details. More announcements will be made as details become available.

I don't know why everyone thinks this is a joke. I mean its not April Fools Day until tomorrow, people had trouble understanding eGO's structure, and the rank structure needed revamping to include Star Wars references. It is much simpler to use vague titles like "Masters," "Padawans," and "Masters of the Order." Do you guys really think that some leadership members have extra time to waste making new graphics, promoting the changes, and creating hype for something that wasn't this important?
 
Despite that this was intended for April Fool's Day, I cannot approve of this. Long live the sith!

P.S. Stormy, just because it was not April 1st where you live, over for our friends it Europe, it was indeed April 1st, just gonna toss that out there.
 
If this is actually true then its really lame, BF and all other games have nothing to do with Star Wars and so we shouldnt be pressed to accept this. Let the star wars clan change their structure to admiral and chief etc. Really hoping this is a april fools joke, not really funny anyways.

The fact that Stormy took the time to type out this long explanation confirms it for me.
 
Lol Legend, I cant possibly see you liking these new icons you made, thats how I knew you be trolling us.

Its not april fools day here yet but I certainly hope it is for you.
 
7/10. Last years was a better April fools joke. But this one still brought a chuckle to my heart.
 
Wasted no time on this one, eh! I am well pleased at my glorious new rank. Question, though... does this give me the ability to force choke in real life?
 
I so hope this is a joke, I feel it's alienating all the non-SWtOR players. Plus I personally hate that game and feel it's insulting to be forced into rankings that have nothing to do with the game(s) I'm actually playing.
