User Status...?

[leviathan]

I've been spending time at CA.org for about a year now, and have been a member since April. In that time, I've been unable to decipher the system of identifying users as "Noob", "Intermediate Noob", "Assistant Artist", etc. Obviously the mods (?) are able to give themselves unique status tags: "Forum God", "Oracle of Ideas", but I wonder how everyone else is given a status ranking...

Let me say that I'm definitely not complaining about my personal status -- I feel it accurately identifies my demonstrated level of skill. I was just wondering if anyone could elaborate on how the process works, and who makes the decisions about when and why users are "upgraded" in status.

Many thanks!

All the titles you mentioned are attained(sp) by posting

Oracle of Ideas is 500, and the last of them I think.

To get a custom title simply PM a mod or admin, and they can change it.

Hey, simple enough. I figured it was based either on number of posts or length of membership...

Thanks for the info, Jnorish.
