Many know of the Star Ranking System as the premier ranking system in YWS, but did you know that there is a second ranking system on this site? Maybe! Probably not, but that's okay! It's not the most visible ranking system on YWS, but it's interesting nonetheless!

We'll call this the Post Ranking System

Stars (and pigs!) are the method of YWS that tracks a member's amount of reviews done. The Post Ranking System tracks how many forum posts a member has done utilizing titles.

(Check the spoiler at the bottom of the article for an in-depth guide of what forum posts are and how to do a forum post)

What are the titles of the Post Ranking System?

  • New Member: 1 post - 4 posts
  • Novice: 5 posts - 14 posts
  • Junior Writer: 15 posts - 49 posts
  • Writer: 50 posts - 99 posts
  • Senior Writer: 100 posts - 249 posts
  • Novelist: 250 posts - 499 posts
  • Speaker of the Forum: 500 posts - 999 posts
  • Master of the Forum: 1000 posts - 2499 posts
  • Epic Novelist: 2500 posts - 4999 posts
  • Writer of Legend: 5000 posts - 9999 posts
  • Rival of Shakespeare: 10000+ posts

Now that you know what the titles are, where do you find them? Well, currently the only way to see someone's post rank title is under their username and avatar in a PM.

You're also able to see your own post rank title by viewing your sent PMs!

Now that you know about the post rankings, you can see where you are on the review leaderboards and forum post leaderboards!

(Did you know there's one member who has their own post title of "Spam Poet"? See if you can find them!)

Forum posts are any posts made in the Forums and Roleplays tab.

The two tabs you can create forum posts are the "Forums" tab and the "Roleplays" tab


You create a forum post in one of two ways: either by creating a new topic or replying to an existing topic.

The "Post a New Topic" button is at the top of every subforum.

If you want to reply to an existing topic, there are two ways you can do this: either at the button at the top of the page or the two buttons at the bottom of the page.

Any time you partake in one of the many forums, you're increasing your forum posts and are on your way to your next title!
