ifrevets Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Hi All: I have noticed that in the "Members" box at the left of each post there are different rankings above each member's photo box. e.g. Member, Senior Member, Life Member, etc. They don't seem to be age-related or by amount of posts. I am curious as to how these rankings are determined. Can someone out there enlighten me? Cheers ifrevets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macca22au Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Bemused me too, I have a feeling there is some screening done for niceness, kindness and sweetness. I failed the test as I am a certified GOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ifrevets Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 Its post count based When you hit 10,000 posts you'll be an Orbx VIP Thanks for the reply Tim; gives me something to strive for. Counting this reply makes 28. Only 9,972 to go. Divide that by 18 (I'm going to live to be 100). So I only need to make 554 posts per year and I'll have a new position. Look on the light side . . . always . . . Look on the light side ifrevets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirit Flyer Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 There you go. With all that stuff you list, you are a VIP already. I have thousands of posts on this forum somewhere, but don't know where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkH Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 I am curious as to how these rankings are determined. Can someone out there enlighten me? It's calculated as (1 / length-of-signature). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Hamilton Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 So how many to get to " Admin " then ?? If that was post count related, Emmsie would be CEO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chumley Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 If that was post count related, Emmsie would be CEO. Emmsie has 10,000 more posts than the real CEO BUT when he starts a thread his name is a yellowy gold but the CEO name stands out in red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripcord Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 You can also edit your 'rank/title' if you choose. I gave myself my own promotion and I am quite satisfied with my current station in life. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
