Hi. I see all kinds of member rankings in the forum posts, from a "newbie" to the board, such as myself, on up to Moderators, Heroes, etc. I've looked & searched various topics, and the help file, as to how one upgrades from a newbie through other ranks, but I couldn't find anything. Just wondering........

Thanks,
Terry

It has to do with the number of posts you make. I'm a member of a dog forum and you start out as "puppy". I'm up to "barks too much" on that one, lol

Hero Member is as high as the levels go. The Moderators are signed up on an individual basis and it is not a level one reaches by posting. The other levels do depend on the number of posts. It is not really fair to post a noninformative post just to get a number on the posts count, but occasionally it happens. I would hope that every post a person makes is meant to inform about something.

Thanks all for letting me know how the system works. I guess I didn't search on the right words to find the past post with the information. Not to worry - I won't be posting just to get my numbers up! I hope you don't consider this thank you post an attempt at that!

No I was just blowing off a little steam as it has happened in the past but it really has been quite a while.

You'l get there in no time, it goes by rather fast and it doesn't let you do anything special except send PM's I think.
