    Now you see it is just a tag, and not really status.

    To advance in status you work hard, have high standards, unwavering principles, and unquestionable honesty. --Jerry

    Excuse my curiosity, NotSure... but I am just not sure how you would know this information, seeing how you just signed up this year... must have been a lurker for a long time... image

    And you only have 9,879 more posts till you can make up your own "status." By your current postings, that should take you about 20 years. And, I know... with an average post count of .70, I'm in the same plan.

    Dude,

    That sounds like actual work!

    I much prefer the +1 method.

    There's no benefit to me posting for a +1 here.....I already have my own user title. And I didn't get it by living on the old OpenForum image

    A more valuable user rating would be words per post once > 1000. Ahh, scratch that. Too easy to cut and past in a book report whenever needed.

    Your post count don't mean nothing as far your experience. Who cares really? A novice alway's comes across as a novice and an expert needs no post title to know he knows his $hit. The posers might fool for a little bit but once they start posting it's quite easy to figure out who they are too. image

    Amazing... I guess just posting for years is not enough any more.... one must advance by nefarious techniques. Oh well, from what I have seen, the posers soon fade away.. in a year or less usually.... Cheers, RickO
