Dutch_12078 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 I don't recall the exact numbers used, but Dan is correct, it's just based on your post count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildmandmc Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 on all online forums , its same just the wording / tittle given. which govern by post count an on some forums give that person a level of access to different features. an to some degree a level of trust be it knowledge of subject being commented on. but there are many with expert knowledge with a low post count.

skp51443 Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Some forums just give up and go weird on the user labels: http://forum.firetrust.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=6746 Â Other forums offer a lot more than just post counting, user feedback, solutions, karma and such: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=97167.0 Â or http://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeMAX/dhcpv6-server-not-sending-out-domain-search-option/m-p/1417637#U1417637 Â Â IP Board, the software we use here isn't great but it is easy to keep running which is a good thing. Â Â I don't recall anything here that is based on post count aside from possibly access to the PM (private message) system that was put in place to stop the drive-by spammers from flooding the message system with spam.

Â IP Board uses a simple post count to qualify each user for the admin defined "ranks". There are some variations available in the settings, but basically it's that simple, 'n' posts moves you to the next rank with its associated title. Â Ranks, Reputation, Pips, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
