Titles? How?
How are you selecting "Titles" for Users? youradds (Andy) has like 1,000 posts or so, I have close to 15,000 and other "veteran" should-bes have posts in the 1,000's. Why am I "Master" now when I was "Veteran" before? Doesn't make any sense.


========================================
Buh Bye!

Cheers,
Me

Paul,

I OBVIOUSLY know that it is a new ranking system...my question was related to HOW the rankings are determined.

I've reset things to:

5 => Novice
50 => User
500 => Enthusiast
1000 => Veteran

Cheers,

Yeah, to start with it was 500 to be a Veteran, but I suggested another one inbetween, cos people can easily get up to 500 posts if they ask a lot of questions Laugh Jason being the cool guy he is added 'Enthusiast' just for us :)

Yeah, but I suggested it to Jason via email, and a post I think. He emailed me yesterday to say he was going to fit in another one Wink I just thought it was a bit silly that people with such low post counts were counted as Veterans Wink

Maybe silly too that people with 10,000 more posts than "veterans" are still veterans - i thin guru should be added for members with 5000+ posts [laugh].........so that would make me, Eliot and Pugdog gurus!!

Jason did have it set up like this;

0 => New User
5 => Novice
50 => User
500 => Veteran
5000 => Master

But cos we wanted the bits changed, Alex took out the Master bit, Dunno what Eliot was annoyed he was made a master....lol

I was accustomed to the "Veteran" status and it was non-intuitive as to how the new "statuses" were being used. Thus, that is why I asked my questions!!!!!!!! Tongue
