I'm NOT a highschool senior

No, really

(That should get the point across, I suppose?)

***Admin*** · 10-13-03, 03:58 PM

Check again (after your next post).

I don't like the titles. I think we should be able to type our own.

I'm not 1st year either...2nd!

It is more like a ranking system. I was a High Senior when I started off after certain amount of posts, my title changed to 1st Year and now 2nd Year. But KayCee gets his own title because he is a moderator.

Now that I understand the difference between the "info" about you, and your rank, I didn't realize that they were not related. I think there should be a different system for ranking posters. It is too confusing, when people are expecting it to correspond to what they entered at registration.

On my personal forum, I use a ranking system that at least describes your familiarity, and regularity of posting, starting out as a newbie, and ending up as 1337.

To the admins/moderators: I think a better ranking system should be devised, to eliminate this confusion.

Thanks for your time!

JPWRana · 11-02-03, 02:28 PM

i think this is WAY TO CONFUSING also... but im not the mod or admin here... i think jack's way is better becuz it makes the forum easier to understand.

***Admin*** · 11-02-03, 06:18 PM

Due to confusion for several members, I decided to change the title text to something similar of what jack wrote.

Newcomer makes sense, but how long do you have that title? jack is a "High School Senior" but I am a newcomer, and I have more posts.

Something is screwy here...

Polygirl · 11-02-03, 09:21 PM

Yeah, I was totally confused on the titles...
high school senior doesn't really make sense...
now, is employee bc he's an employee or bcof the amt of posts?

Hmm...must be a bug because some member's title did not changed while few of you did. I'll take a look at it.
He is "Employee" because of his post counts.

Are the new titles also confusing? Starts off as Newcomer, Trainee, Employee, Manager, and so forth...

JPWRana · 11-04-03, 12:04 AM

... HEY WAIT!!! SECRETARIES ARE FOR GIRLS!!! how is it that i have over 200 posts and im a secretary? is manager like 400 posts?!?! lol...
