chrysler1941 Posted February 3, 2019 Report Posted February 3, 2019 Don't know if here is the right place to ask but how is user rank defined ? Why am I still a "junior member just joined the forum" although I joined in 2012. Others have only joined last year with less posts are ranked Advanced etc. How are the rank defined? Quote

Pete Posted February 4, 2019 Report Posted February 4, 2019 Hi Chysler1941. I'm in the same boat. I asked about it and received an "I don't know" answer. You'll see a note I added to the left of this post. Quote

P15-D24 Posted February 4, 2019 Report Posted February 4, 2019 It's either number of posts or number of threads started. Just a simple counter. 1 Quote
chrysler1941 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Report Posted February 4, 2019 Ok so Member Title option pops up automatically when either number of posts or number of threads started. Good to know. Thanks to all and T120 for the pics Quote
