I have just noticed that I am listed as a junior member. That's quite nice at my age but does anyone know what that means.

When you've posted here 100 times, you should become a 'Full member".  200+ posts is 'Senior Member' I think, but I'm not quite sure since the forum upgrade, what comes after that, -  except 'God Member'

Perhaps Nigel can explain, as I can't seem to find any information on the forum pages?

Hi Guys,
it wasn't something I had noticed, but I do think "Junior" is a bit derogatory...!  So I have changed it.  The way it works now is:

God Member                          500 posts        
Senior Member                      250       
Advanced Member              100       
Vintagebike Contributor        50
Member                             0

If there are better names you would prefer to see, simply let me know and I can get them altered.  (although I doubt you'll be able to convince LAB that he's anything other than a god!)

Occasionally people have been known to say "Oh God!" - when they see me!

But I certainly don't consider myself to be any kind of deity whatsoever, and I'm surprised that you would think such a thing of me, Nigel?  ::)

To be quite truthful, I am a little uncomfortable with the "God Member" title, actually, Nigel.

Revel in it Goldie.  I haven't been called 'Junior' for about 60 years!

 Oh Sugar! Now you have made me notice I have lost my 'Junior' status and become a 'Contributor' - and I'm, not sure about that.

Jim.
