Y0da, I think he means that you get a title depending on where you mostly post and also the quantity of posts per day. Its not available under your profile.

When you have a ranking system users tend to post more and more spam, junk, cr@p etc just to get their post count up.

Do we really want this here ?????

A far better system would be to rank users according to how long they have been active members and not the post count.

What ya thinkguys ????

Where would your post count be sitting now if we were to take away all the double posts and spam posts.

I'm not picking on you alone this is more of a general statement
