What do all the membership titles actually mean (like sr. member, etc...)? What is the difference between one green square and four green squares.
I was just curious, thanks.
P.S. I searched on every term I could think of and couldn't find the answer.

I believe it's simply a measure of the number of posts one submits.

Right. As in much of the discussion about pixels on this and other forums, it's quantity that matters and quality is irrelevant (now I've just boosted myself further into the elite).

hmm..interesting.
I just got a forum response from a senior member with 4709 posts and only one green square. I have only 660 posts, and I have four green squares. What do the green squares mean? What does it mean to be called a Contributor or a senior member or both?

Men...you are bored aren't you?
It's spring, life is fun, girls are starting to wear their short dresses and scoop neck are flowering on the terrasses.
Canon will soon release a 40MP dslr with Raw video for 2000 bucks.
And Rob will finally find a proper model to shoot on the beach like in the good old days.

Hi,
Quality of posts may matter? Perhaps number of responses to posting?
Best regards

The forum software gives points for quantity. *I* give points for quality.

Oooh! Do points mean prizes? I seem to recall that they should. Not that I'd be in the running, of course.

Does this mean that Michael actually reads our posts? This has made me quite nervous . . .

Only the good ones. :)

That's put me in my place ;)
But we notice that Michael has five squares - and with yellow spots, too. Is this accolade self-assessed, and if not, who rates the rater himself - is there a higher power involved?

I suggest you offer a couple of cautionary prayers tout de suite!

Hmmmmm.... that got me thinking... remember all those self-appointed five-star Latin American generals? Given Michaels current geo location... ;D

Ah...Interesting. That clears it up.
So I guess the green squares are a way for forum readers to have some general judgment about the credibility of the writer. Nice idea. It helps account for the approach some people take of quantity over quality.

So, what's a full member?

excuse me?

Probably "self inflated"!

I bet I'm down to one square tomorrow . . .

The power of divine right/majority ownership. As Louis XIV once said "Le site, c'est moi" - or something to that effect. ;)
