Scrumpot 1 #1 May 6, 2003 I just don't have the time, but I sure am getting tired of being considered a "NEWBIE" on here! ...I've been around these forums since before it even WAS "DZ.COM" (anybody remember Sangiro's Synergy?). Somebody please help ---Aggie Dave, maybe you know So, how many posts, or posts/day does it take to "move up" off of Newbie status?? Maybe I should just say "hi" to EVERYBODY ever posting anything for 5-6 days straight. ...Would that help? What is the "next level" status anyway? ...Maybe I don't want that either. -Maybe I should just give it up? coitus non circum - Moab Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scrumpot 1 #6 May 6, 2003 Well, I have just done just a litlte research, and here's what it looks like.... In sorting the membership roster by post #'s break-points are something like this: (remember I DON'T really have enough time for this!) 0-49 you are a Newbie 50-299 you are an Enthusiast 300-699 you are an Old Hand 700-999 you are an Addict 1000-? you are a Veteran I stopped there. ANyone wanting to do a complete research maybe, can go here: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?do=user_list;sb=user_posts;so=DESC; and let us know... coitus non circum - Moab Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scrumpot 1 #8 May 6, 2003 Funny, for 8 years now (at least just in skydiving) I have thought almost exactly the opposite...

Scrumpot 1 #12 May 6, 2003 Quote i think newbies has as much to say as others... its the value in the words you say... Not based upon my experience & the types of responses I have had to date on some of my previous posts. I had been, at least up unitl now, only posting when I thought I had something of VALUE to say (just click on my profile & check it out if you like). However, based upon some of the less than flattering responses/PM's/consideration I have had, it would seem to me that MANY others do not share your view ...I guess they would rather prefer the opinion of a 5-jump "Pooh-bah" or 30-jump "Veteran" instead? So, yup. ...Here I am now, here, ...posting *CRAP*! Am I gaining any respect? coitus non circum - Moab Stone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

r2hubert 0 #15 May 6, 2003 How come you've been on this forum for so long and never see the answer at your question? It as been asked several times and it's even in the FAQ: 0 => Newbie 50 => Enthusiast 300 => Old Hand 700 => Addict 1000 => Veteran 1500 => Pooh-Bah 2500 => Carpal Tunnel 5000 => Fanatic 7500 => Mighty Mouse 10000 => Geronimo Hum weird.... -- Renaud SMA #9 "Mind is like parachute.

Scrumpot 1 #17 May 6, 2003 Nothing personal intended.... as he embarassingly clicks her profile to read: # of jumps: 5 DZ.com posting status: Pooh-bah Coincidence, or some sort of memory imprint? I may have earlier looked at your profile, but I REALLY did not even think about it/any one individual! How weird is that? I do know that a lot of us in here participate for the social interaction.
