    Currently we have the following user titles based on number of posts.

    Trialist 0
    Junior Hornet 200
    Academy Player 500
    Reserve Team Player 750
    First Team 1000
    International 2000
    Superstar 5000
    Galactico 10000

    We're thinking of adding some more/moving the goalsposts a bit. I'd like Junior hornet to start earlier possibly 50 but as this is a democracy* what are your thoughts?

    Yes till it gets to 19:29 then it's a post 19:28 democracy.

    Suggestions thoughts anyone.

    How many posters do we have in each category at the moment? Maybe move the boundaries to fit a "bell curve" distribution. Possibly ignoring any who haven't logged on for 6 months?

    Ok, so in theory you want a few more in the middle categories and less Trialists for an equal distribution? If you have every member and their post count in excel, i'm sure there's a way of working it out.

    How about a "dead-wood" category for those who've posted a few times, but not again for months?

    And a "Travner" category for the lurkers who have joined but never posted?

    As long as I don't lose 'Forum Cad and Bounder' under my username, I care not what you choose. I'm sure it will be good.

    It's a valid opinion and an option. We could make the default category hornmeister's minion regardless of post count.

    Of course it will. Paid for or awarded titles will not be affected.

    Forum Snitch seems inappropriate for me.

    How about "forum person who should really spend his time more constructively?"
