The ranking system is bugged at the moment. It's supposed to be the higher the amount of posts, the higher the rank, but it's bugged. You can see that I'm just a regular member, even though I have almost 1,500 posts.

you can change your member name in your profile since you have more than 500 post

It's a bug / glitch from previous forum software which had a different member ranking system than IPB (current forum software). As a result, some users who reached 100 + posts on the old forum had a change of title to "Senior Member", where as this isn't the same as with this new forum; therefore, users who now reach over 100 posts may still have the default "Junior Member" tag.

when will there be a new ranking system or is that a bit lower on the list?

We're working on a ranking system which goes on REP rather than views. Not entirely sure whether the current member titles will be removed as a result though.

Because I joined after the move, the ranking system isn't bugged for me.

 

0-9 = Newbie

10-49 = Member

50-99 = Advanced Member

100+ = Senior Member

 

And I was told at 500 posts you can choose a custom title. Not sure.

Yup. Go into your settings, and click Profile settings and you should see the area where you can change your title.

Doh-  sorry, that's what i meant by "rep".

Yes, rep = reputation; but in this case, it's done on "likes".

Man this being LTT and everything associated with it you'd think we'd have a funnier member ranking/title instead of those. Something like:

 

0-9 = Noob

10-49 = Intern

50-99 = Really

100+ = Redonkulous

 

Well something like that, I know I've suggested it before when we were on vBullitin.

 

Then what the heck is Rebmem Roines?

 

:P

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.
