    you are not bumped up automatically just because you reach X number of posts. Admin update member status every few weeks

    Also the quality of your posts is a factor too. Try and help as much as possible in all your posts.

    Hey there djscoop,

    The categorization of a member’s status was a little confusing to me at first.

    Then, in another thread a few of the members took the time to explain how “ranking” works and like you, stressed that [bold]quality not quantity[/bold] is the basis for change in a members ranking or category.

    However, I didn’t realize that a Forum Administrator (probably during bi-weekly review or whatever) is the one responsible for considering actual changes. Thanks for the information.

    BTW: this is my 33rd post and hopefully of value to someone. Ha! Take care. ;-)

    welcome to the aD forums! The rankings are generally on posts, but don't worry. If you become a regular visitor you'll be up there in no time!
