You just did. 
The "levels" are 0, 15, 75, 350, 1000, and 2000. |

Yes, I suppose congratulations are in order for your recent (mischievous) efforts, my furry friend .
You are a welcome addition to the Great Reader ranks here at Candlekeep. Of course, because you now hold the lowest tier in this new position, you are now automatically assigned all the duties that both the Bookwyrm and myself do not think befit out glorious stations.
So, expect my ever-useful dwarven assistant, Brax, to be along shortly with a nice old wheel-barrow chock full of scrolly-goodness for you to catalogue before day's end  .
Congratulations again, I'm sure you'll come to welcome the "great" benefits that come with such a rank   .
Thank you, Sage! 
But do you really want to pawn your work off on someone you know to be mischievous? The results could prove... interesting.
Well, I am a gnome after all so I understand the concept of mischievousness. But I do not worship the Great Old One... he who will be named, the Furry Hamster. So in effect, mischievousness is part of the package for me as well. It's just that I have a reputation to maintain around here you see...

I have a reputation to uphold, too, but it's as a mischief-maker.  |

I would just like to take this opportunity to congratulate the Krash himself on being promoted to the rank of Master of Realmslore. Truly, a well-deserved title...
It has been a pleasure sharing your thoughts on the Realmslore, George .
Here's to the future of the Realms .

Indeed, I said it before, but it bears repeating. For this scribe, GK had the title, Master of Realmslore, long before he reached a 1,000 posts.

How come he doesn't get a "designer" title then?
Congrats on the new rank though. ^_^ |

Thanks guys, much appreciated. I must say that my time here is always a heck of a lot of fun.
As for a 'title' I'm just a Joe Schmoe like the rest of you. No airs and graces here at C-Keep. Although "FR Consultant" wouldn't be far wrong ... (or if it was my mum's choice: "FR Sucker" as she asks me for the umpteenth time if I'm getting paid for "this stuff"!)

Products I've done research or proofreading on are as follows:
Empires of the Shining Sea
Cloak & Dagger
Sea of Fallen Stars
Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark
Demihuman Deities
FRCS 3E
Lost Empires of Faerun
Serpent Kingdoms
Champions of Ruin
Waterdeep: City of Splendors
Some of my own prose has snuck into a few of the above products and much of the history of the North in LEoF came from my noggin (all because Eric asked me one day 7 years ago to start working on the "Fallen Kingdom").
I've published one FR article in DRAGON (#277 - "Soargar's Legacy") but think that I may have a few more in me - especially if Erik Mona stays at the helm. I'll keep you all posted.
Oh, and I exist as a blue dragon of the Morueme clan, currently sifting through the ruins of Ched Nasad.
The reason for the above, is I think the same for all of us: love, fascination and admiration for the vibrant, living product of Ed's imagination that is the Realms. We wouldn't all be here otherwise.

Well met
Indeed well deserved congratulations, George Thy contributions to the Realms and to Candlekeep are much appreciated.
On a good few occassions I have suggested, nay... "insisted" that George take the title of Forgotten Realms Designer, but he modestly continues to decline  Having just purchased Champions of Ruin (yet another tome where George is listed as a Developer), I say we label him as such whether he likes it or not What say ye?

Indeed, so I noticed
I'll be striving to fill those remaining posts (and the subsequent posts after) with as much Realms Lore as possible. |

| It perhaps should be noted that Alaundo has also achieve the rank, just that the higher rankover rides. |

Congratulations to DDH_101 for gaining his mastery and KnightErrantJR for his attainment of senior level. I'm sure they are well pleased with their improved and lofty status - I certainly got a kick out of it.

Congrats Mumadar . This is certainly a promotion that should have come much sooner for you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, y'all are too kind
It's been a pleasure to dwell here within these walls and partake in the sharing of knowledge on the Realms. I'll be certain do do so going forward, and despite the newy aquired status, I know I'll have plenty of questions to ask too. |
