0 Jordy Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 You are correct. It is an arbitruary title based on the amount of posts one makes. It is built into the software and serves no real purpose. If you dont like it I am pretty sure members can change it to anything they like in their settings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MarkSalter Posted May 27, 2013 Report Share Posted May 27, 2013 I is an arbitrary reward for being active on a forum and thus some basic recognition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Bradporter Posted May 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Thanks for the response. It's not that I didn't like the set-up, but merely couldn't find an explanation.You friendly folk have supplied that info.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AndreaL Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 I notice similar identifiers on other forums, such as a number of stars under a members name denoting the amount of posts they have contributed or time with the forum. I think it is just a quick way of identifying who is new and who has been around for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 GideonVD Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 And also a false incentive for some people who want to get higher ratings faster... thus posting a lot of nonsense... you know what I call them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 HadEnoughofJuju Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 It's a way of telling those of us who are addicted to the forum and need counselling. We should start an AASAA forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please advise.
