Membership Advancement Question

How do you get promoted from member to junior member to senior member? How do I get my advancement merit badges? Or is it based on member age?

I don't know what you were talking about with "merit badges". All you get is it says "Senior Member" under your name.

the word assume can be broken down into the smple words.

***

Yeah, Freshman year my math teacher started the first day with "Don't assume anything, if you do you just make an *** out of you and me" as he wrote it on the board.

It was the lamest, corniest thing I had ever heard.

IIRC you are a junior member until 50 posts then you are a member until 100 posts and then after you are a senior member.

Actually, when I took my hunter's safety course that came as a present with my shotgun, that phrase was hammered into our heads by our instructor.

Weird.

Btw, just noticed this is my 500th post

I think it's also dependent on time. I've seen a senior member with less than 50 posts.

I think that you increase in "rank" after X posts, or X months, whichever the sooner.

Don't know the value of the X though!

i know some board software packages allow for custom user titles. i do know that 3rdgen.org has custom user titles.

however, i don't see it happening here, as the naming could possibly get out of control.

still could be a neat idea though. mine would read "some guy"
