Why is it that a person with 40 posts and a person with 300+ posts are both called Addicts?

I'm wondering if the names and numbers to achieve should be reviewed. Something like 0, 100, 500, 1000, 5000 seems more appropriate....

Of course, I want everyone to be happy with their names, so I'll take suggestions. But I think it's nice that the names change after 10 posts - Otherwise you get people coming up with entire threads just to build up their numbers. (And how many of you are blushing?) So I think we should do 0, 10, 25, 50, 100 and then big leaps. JMO

Do we really need to have this conversation every 2 weeks? Surely every other month is sufficient.

Away with your antiquated caste system. I am not defined by my number of posts... we shall throw off the shackles of an oppressive... oh, hell... my torch went out... you can't have a good rebellion without a torch... or a sword... anyone got a sword? That's a light saber, you dweeb, I'm talking about something majestic here...

... oh never mind.

We could name them after mega-posters . . . you start off as an Ian, move up to an Amie . . . through all the regulars . . . eventually, you're a . . . Spiffnme? KCarlile? Who's #1?

PMBUKO, but then your messages are limited to three sentences and no more than 10% can make sense.

Wuv ju, Peter!

I think I'm #2 and Spiff is #3, but we trade off. Peter's the undisputed...

Let's just please change it to something different or end further converstation about it. This does seem to come up quite often, but hasn't changed yet. Perhaps beyond 100, we get 300, 500, 1000, 1500, 2500, 3500, 5000 ( I think that takes care of everyone, doesn't it?)

Another vote for Pmbuko for El Presidente. I am still laughing about his "confusing the electrons in my receiver for improved performance" post.
