RoadRash 0 #1 March 6, 2004 How did I go from an OLD HAND to an ENTHUSIAST? That's kinda odd... Anyone got any ideas?!? edited to add: Is there anyone else with this problem or is it just me?!? ~R+R~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Fly the friendly skies...^_^...})ii({...^_~...

skybytch 259 #6 March 6, 2004 Looks like the titles and # of posts needed to change a title have changed. After spending a few minutes paging through the User Directory here's what appears to be the current breakdown (yes, it's late, I can't sleep and I'm bored). 0-49 - Newbie 50 - 299 - Enthusiast 300 - 499 - Old Hand 500 - 699 - Enthusiast (again) 700 - 999 - Addict 1000 - 1499 - Veteran 1500 - 2499 - Pooh-Bah 2500 - 4999 - Carpal Tunnel 5000 - 7499 - Fanatic 7500 - 9999 - Mighty Mouse 10000 - 14999(?) - Geronimo 15000(?) - 19999 - Big Chief 20000+ - Guru No one has gotten past Guru yet. Looks like somehow the Enthusiast title got plugged in where it shouldn't have. If I were really, really, really bored I'd count how many people have each title. I might anyway.... could be a good cure for insomia. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DJatLarge 0 #7 March 6, 2004 crapp, that means in about 5 more posts, I'm an Enthusiast again! Couldn't it be "really old hand"?? Guess I'll have to stop posting if i want to keep this status :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kennedy 0 #9 March 6, 2004 Damn and I thought those last four were actually gven to the four posters that wear them. I thought mighty mouse was for the repost police, that big chief was "hey, keep tryin" and Guru was "you're such a freakin post whore" Geronimo does make sense as the next step from Pooh Bag though.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wingnut 0 #11 March 6, 2004 Quotean orientation spinning class tomorrow... this ought to be interesting... if you have never been spinning before you are in for a suprise... i recomend a padded seat cusin to add to the "bike" and a watter bottle... even the intro class should kick your butt!!!! at least it did mine when i took it here on base... damn spining is a workout all by itself and man will you feel it the next couple days....... well i did atleast.... but then again i'm out of shape and all... ______________________________________ "i have no reader's digest version" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bbarnhouse 0 #23 March 7, 2004 Quoteto quote Dusty Smith, one of the judges of the freefly money meet when asked "who was the best flier today" " GG. hands down, and he isnt an 'every day' skydiver even" Interesting that you should bring up Dusty's comment. G2 was here last evening and brought up that very subject. He said coming from Dusty, it was one of the greatest compliments he has ever had. Dusty never gives compliments lightly, and it meant a lot to the Meastro to hear those words from him. G2 never ceases to amaze me in his humility. QuoteIndubitabley. i LOVE that word!! no one ever uses it... have i told you how cool you are lately??? Well thanks I think you're pretty cool as well! I think its bomb diggety word too.I try not to use big words cuz then I get accused of sounding like a dictionary, and the response is..."May I have that in English please?"
