Hello madix!

It's how many Posts you make; you get a new label for reaching so many posts.
Please post in a frenzy to get to the Nirvana of Member titles. Oom.

I hope it will go (some day) to like 10,000 posts as a "Lifer"!
Great to "see" you!

Madix --

I can't remember the cutoff numbers, but the Stranger, Member and Advanced Member status relates to the number of posts you have made in the forums. One thing to note is that WCG login is not case sensitive but the forum software is at present (the WCG technicians are aware of this problem, but it is way down the list of things to fix as it should be). This means that if you login as madix and make a post, that will accumulate under the madix userid and then if later you post under Madix, that will accumulate seperately. You will also see a status of Community Admin. These are individuals that have consistantly been of help to other users on the forums and the WCG staff have asked to help run the forums. The actual staff have tags like Admin or WCG Tech (or something like that).

One more post and I'll be a Member! biggrin

btw, as I make more posts every post I made gets updated to my current amount of posts so this will be my 49th post but not my last post so my number of posts on the left there may be higher by the time you read this. wink

Re: Oh, and what is this Newbie, and stuff..?

How about using these for Forum designations

(1) New Member up to 20 posts
(2) Regular Member up to 50 posts
(3) Seasoned Member up to 100 posts
(4) Very Seasoned Member over 100 posts
(5) Forum God over 500 posts

Number 5 should be Lawrence Hardin’s designation now

smile

Lawrence please take a bow

Ehhhh riight.. I just got this program so I could help people around the world. Its nothing that I dedicated my life to or anything. 3 days ago, I started reading a little about it, and I wanted to know if by getting a higher status, I could help more people or whatever. I never check my rank. Frankly don't care about it. Its just a program I have running cause I have my computer running 24/7. U can call me noob (in this program, true) but I dont really care.

Re: Oh, and what is this Newbie, and stuff..?

Ok, I got all this, but one last thing. Do I get more posts, If I post something in other peoples threads..? Or just if I create my own threads.?

This will be my last last question, (hopfully love struck

)

Everytime you post anywhere on the forums, your post count will increase. You can check this by looking at the left hand side of the message that you post where it says something like:
