How are the member rankings on Remote Central (Regular, Advanced, Super) determined?

If I recall, I think I had to send in my measurements, I did think it was kinda
weird at the time.

Doesn't really seem fair to me. I mean, honestly, I had the most open sores and festering puss boils on mine, yet I get grouped up with the rest or the 'normies'. Seems all my hard work was for nothing.

And since Ernie won't keep count, I will. Hes up to 249, and counting.

Just the type of responses I was looking for. Thanks.

It's my guess that it is based on when you signed up and how many posts you've left. Nonsensical posts as per above not only entertain (or not, depending on point of view) but they advance the poster's member status.

I've never really figured out the titles here...... ANd really, I dont care much for titles..... They really dont mean much anyway... a forum "Newbie" can offer just as good advice sometimes as a "Elite Memeber" Time online and how many posts you have cant speak for real world experience.

You gotta love the guys that have "it's my first day!" as ther member status... It's appropriate sometimes, but other times it's out of place.

The only time a member's status means anything to me is if they are under 20 posts and have just joined the same month...
I may take their reply with a huge grain of salt, but like Impaqt says, sometimes they are still old vets full of good experiences that just happen to be late to this party.

Then there are the ones with under ten posts who are intent on ripping somebody a new one, and their ideas stink!

If we are going to submit money, as suggested, I say we should get to choose our own titles. Lord of the (impe)Dance or some such.

I can customize anyone's title... and I suppose in the future I could modify things so that certain members could customize their own.

Daniel, what a can of worms you have just opened!

Maybe those of us who never see our wives can be termed as "not very often used member"
