ok, I've looked in the FAQ and all over. I just want to know how your "Status" on the boards changes? When does Junior become... whatever? what are the min posts to go on? I'm not trying to win any contests, I'm just trying to figure out what they all mean... ?

And, if you know where I should have found it on this site, so much the better!!


Thanks,

Markian

It's a secret that you can't be told. Take off eh!

[Face Ache]

With 20 posts in 2 years you should be a "senior member" by 2010.

[wataru]

The "Status" item under your name indicates whether you're online or not at the moment.

[G4ME]

we have a genius amung us!

My guess is when you see your name in the upper part of the forum page then you are online and when you don't see it then you are off line

[Montanan]

OK, dude, I'll actually try to give you a serious answer, here:

At 50 posts, you become a "Member";
At 100 posts, you become a "Senior Member";
At 250 posts, you become a "Veteran Member":

Which is as far as I've gone, anyhow. Someone with a more exaulted post count will have to fill it in from there.

Uh, no ... I won't take the bait on that one. It would just be too easy.

[Krusty]

I believe 'Elite' comes at 500 .. not that'd I'd know from personal experience. Maybe 1000 - "Addicted", but I'm not sure. Maybe they could put some other stats in there as well (Posts per day in the last week, month, year, total) etc.

over 1000 posts in under a year should be grounds for banishment - for your own good as well as ours.

yeah, whatever those people do for a living ..... that's what I wanna do.

[DaKiwi2788]

1000 posts is Addicted
10000 posts is Clinically Insane I think

ah. thanks for the real answer.

And yeah, I know, only 20 posts in 2 years. Actually, I was last on the forums when I lived in Japan. I wanted to post earlier this week, and tried my usual user names for online stuff, and lo, I had an account!!!

It was painfully slow from japan!

I have to say ... I felt guilty the second I hit the "Submit" button on that one! I was just kidding, you know.

Of course, if you look at this board a little too carefully, it would be easy to conclude that nearly all the posts here are fairly stupid!
