Post Member? Junior Member??

I just noticed a change with my account here ... I used to be a Junior Member, and now I've suddenly become a Member (not that it angers me or whatever, I'm just surprised, that's all http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/smile.gif )

I've looked into the FAQ regarding this change of status, but it doesn't deal with it. Can anybody write down the 'full story' regarding this issue?? Thanks in advance.

Heh, well I'm not sure of the "full story" but I know it switches after a certain number of posts. I think you can even improve from member.

Imagine the glory of being a veteran?!? =D

Heh, veteran... http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/wink.gif

Well, just wanted to mention that I'm a member now, too http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/tongue.gif

Btw, is there a possibility to see how many posts one has posted?

I'm not sure what you mean Maurice? The change in status comes after a certain number of posts. I'm unsure of the exact number, but I believe its 30.

Its just a way that the creators of the script put in to show a level of seniority. Other than that, there are no benifits.

Equis is correct. After 30 posts, you are "promoted" to a Member. However, there is not a higher ranking for more posts.

The only rankings are:

Junior Member
Member
Moderator
Administrator

What I meant was that you (Equis) are a moderator of this forum, but didn't know about this effect in the script, that's all.

I assumed (appearantly incorrectly) that you guys would have known about this ... but Buck Satan already explained it, thanks for the info.

(BTW, is there a way to be promoted to Moderator, or even Administrator? :-))

Haha Maurice! http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/wink.gif

But I really had liked a status called veteran poster, sounds pretty cool, huh?

Veteran for 100 posts
Gamemaster for 250 posts
