Doesn't taronyu mean "warrior" or something?

"To become taronyu, hunter, you must choose your own ikran and he must choose you."
XD warrior is tsamsiyu. |

Oh yeah. Yeah...
Sometimes I get 'em confused. I remember certain lines; "warrior" just popped in my head.

Upon some further searching I found more potential ranks:
Frrtu (guest, visitor) Sngä’iyu (beginner) Hapxìtu (member) Tsulfä Si (master) Keltsun (impossible) Rey’eng (the Balance of Life) "Sngä’iyu" could be inserted as a lower rank at 35 posts (or bump down seeker to 35 and put this at 50). "Hapxìtu" could fill for the 200 post count slot I mentioned earlier. "Karyu" could be bumped down to 1,250 and "Tsulfä Si" put in place at 1,500. "Lekye'ung" could be moved up to 8,000 and "Keltsun" could be inserted at 6,500. Some posters here have expressed disapproval with "Eywa" as a final post rank. "Rey’eng" could substitute at 25,000 or could simply be inserted at 15,000 as a rank of its own. This would increase the total to 26 (or 27 if you could find a place for "Frrtu"). Some of these seem more suited than others. Any thoughts on what should be included? Last edited by Banefull; 11-05-2010 at 03:23 AM. |

Maybe Tsulfätu would work better? I'm no expert, but that should mean someone who does mastery, therefore a "master", which I think is what is being aimed for.... Just a suggestion. |

Seems like "One of the People" would be "Na'viyä Hapxì" (Part of the People), unless it'd be better suited to "One of the People" since we all know that saying better.

Keltsun and Rey'eng seem like they should be switched but being so high, it doesn't really matter much to me.

Quick look at learnnavi.org where I got these from:
tsulfä: [tsul."fæ] PF n. mastery tsulfä si: [tsul."fæ si] PF vin. master tsulfätu: [tsul."fæ.tu] PF n. master of an art, craft, or skill, expert I'm not knowledge of Navi grammer so I don't know the exact nuances other than whats given here. tsulfätu may be the correct term as it could mean expert/master also.

Putting the -tu or -yu suffix on a word makes it someone that does something (taronyu, tsamsiyu, numeyu etc). |

cut out "insane" and I'm in.
It doesn't quite fit with the rest of the high ranking posts.

My rank just changed to "Sngä’iyu" and I had to look it up to find out what it meant. I guess "Beginner" is appropriate! (Especially as my knowledge of the Na'vi language goes!!)
Some of those ranks are hilarious, BTW!! I hope I'm still hanging out here when somebody achieves the rank of "Neytiri Makto." ![]() As for the proposed (but not adopted) rank of "Eywa": That should be an honorary title bestowed on all involved with keeping this place up and running. Somebody then needs to write a vBulletin plug-in that allows people of this rank to sick virtual banshees and thanators on trolls. EDIT: Actually, I guess "Eywa" was on the final list, no?
