What is Rank exactly?

Well, the topic title explains it well, but I will say it again:

what is rank (I am a "Knight"), and what are its effect?

As far as I can tell and from the little I could read, they are just cosmetic titles.  Nothing extra in them.   You can even give yourself a custom title.

That's a member title, and at least on our forums it's pretty much a purely aesthetic thing. If you don't set a one for yourself, then it'll change based on the number of posts you've made, and is an indicator of your activity as a member.

But you can change it by going to your profile and editing it (the field that says "Member Title"), and put anything you want there (and it won't change based on post count any more).

 

Back when we were still on the old forums it was a tiny bit more exclusive, as you had to purchase it with our (now discontinued) site currency, which you could only earn from posting or making donations. So it used to be a bit of a reward for being active on here or supporting Ame. But since the currency system wasn't compatible with the new forums and had to be abandoned, member titles and username changes are among the things that are now free for any member to do.

 

Basically, it's a cosmetic thing just like having an avatar or a signature.
Edit: blegh, didn't get notified that you already got an answer, whoops.
