Jr. Members vs. Members vs. Sr. Members? How is this determined??

And then I'm the oddball with 5 silver flowers, a different title, and far too many posts (And I'm still far from being among the most knowledgeable here; I've simply been a regular poster for the past decade).

I thing somewhere, once long ago there was a post explaining the post numbers needed for each flower. And you can have a bonus animated purple flower for supporting the forum through donations.

I'm a senior Mbr. but I don't feel different.
Probably that's because I'm in my 50's...but I feel young. It's just a mindset.

Holy crap!!!! I AM a senior member!!!! Thanks Camille! That's exciting for me although....I don't feel like I've done enough or know enough to deserve the title! Haha!

Well and one of the reasons I was curious was because I was wondering if it was based on age or experience. Like junior member primarily....meaning under 18. Because I was a tad worried at the time I might be taking advice from a 12 year old. WHICH, there are some really smart 12 year olds....don't get me wrong BUT! You know what I mean!!

And yes! I also wondered If it indicated experience level too BUT I knew that COULDNT be the case because at the time I was only a "Member" and if it was based on experience I definitely wouldn't of ever graduated from the "Junior Member" category! Hehe!

Oh man! Camille! Your a Super Moderator! How do you get "Super" added to your title!? And Rbarata....you just wait until you have Super in your title too and I'm sure you'll feel like a whole new person!! 😉

Actually, in the past we had a couple really knowledgable 14 -15 year olds on the forum! Of course they lacked the eperience that comes with many years of growing, but for teenagers their knowledge was quite impressive.

I got promoted to moderator after a couple years on OB (only admins can do that), but I have no idea if the default title is super moderator (rather than just moderator) or if the admins decided to have some fun with the title and editted it.

As you can see, I currently have three. I'm thinking I got my third one at 500 posts, but I don't think a fourth one will come until I have 1,000 posts. Not sure, though. And not that it matters. It's just something interesting to talk about.

Something made me re-read this topic -- it's cold here and I don't have anything else to do, really, except browse forums, lol -- but I noticed today I have two stars, not three as I had stated. So now I'm wondering, can they take stars away from you? Nah, I probably just counted wrong when I made my post. Or did I? Now I've something to wonder about.
