    When you registered, you were a Junior member. Soon afterwards, you became a member. I'm sure if you wait some more, you will become a senior member. It just takes time.

    I think it's a bit more mystical than 100 postings as I don't seem to have reach that milestone yet...

    I hope it isn't related to the number of messages posted, otherwise there might be people out there 'trying' to get Senior Member status by posting, how shall I put this, low-quality posts just for the sake of it (a bit like this one )

    I think it has to do with how long you are a member,(and maybe they use the number of posts to).

    When you first sign up for the board, you are a Junior Member. After you have posted 30 messages, you become a Member. When you have posted 100 messages, you become a Senior Member.

    If that is the case, Benski is a senior member but only has 51 posts......?

    I have over a thousand posts. Does that make me an elderly member?

    I thought it was just something you're born with.

    0 ... 29 = Junior
    30 ... 99 = Member
    100 ... 299 = Senior
    300 ... 999 = Veteran
    1000 ... 2999 = Guru
    3000 ... 2999 = Real Monster

    and so on!

    Nope. Just someone with a lot of spare time...

    Post not that i care but...


    i'd posted close to a 100...
    but i just found out my status
    had been reverted back to being
    junior member...

    back to the original question-
    just don't mind your level,
    in this forum, the quality of
    the post is what counts (not
    the level)...

    Unfortunately, back in December we had to remove all posts dating before September because the board was getting too big. However, the old UBB did not update the count for your number of posts. This new system has recounted the number of posts that you have made according to what it has in its database. This is the number that will stay now.

    Hopefully we will never have to remove old posts again now that we are on a new system.
