Hi,

Underneath the names of users there is a title like "well known member" etc. Apparently these are derived from the amount of posts you made. I noticed that many people had the title "active member", even while they had not been active on this forum for 5 years. This is confusing I think for non-regulars. Maybe we should change these titles?
 
After reading this thread,I've just noticed that previously applied 'honour titles' (for want of a better phrase) beneath member's avatars, have gone.
For example, I was kindly awarded the title 'Benevolens Magister', which is no longer displayed beneath my avatar.
 
I also don't like the "Well Known Member" thing.

Can the titles be changed?

I wouldn't mind maybe going back to the old "rank" system that we used to have 10+ years ago.

0-10 posts = Airman
11-25 posts = Airman 1st Class
26-100 posts = Senior Airman
101-250 posts = Staff Sergeant
251-500 posts = Tech Sergeant
501-750 posts = Master Sergeant
751-1000 posts = Senior Master Sergeant
1001-1250 posts = Chief Master Sergeant
1251-1500 posts = 1st Sergeant
1501-1750 posts = 2nd Lieutenant
1751-2000 posts = 1st Lieutenant
2001-2500 posts = Captain
2501-3000 posts = Major
3001-3500 posts = Lieutenant Colonal
3501-4000 posts = Colonal
4001-5000 posts = Brigadier General
5001-6000 posts = Major General
6001-7000 posts = Lieutenant General
7001+ posts = General

or

0-10 posts = Airman
11-25 = Senior Airman
26-100 = Lance Corporal
101-250 = Sergeant
251-500 = Flight Sergeant
501-750 = Warrant Officer
751-1000 = Pilot Officer
1001-1250 = Flying Officer
1251-1500 = Flight Lieutenant
1501-1750 = Squadron Leader
1751-2000 = Wing Commander
2001-2500 = Group Captain
2501-3000 = Air Commodore
3001-3500 = Air Vice Marshal
3501-4000 = Air Marshal
4001-5000 = Air Chief Marshal
5001+ posts = Marshal of the Air Force

or

Just go back to...

New Member
Veteran
etc.

Of course if the staff decide to bestow an "honor title" on a member, that become their title to set them aside from the regular forum membership.
 
Well, at least my member is well known....

Agreed Chris.

Would also be nice to see the date of your last post in a thread when you hover of the bit that tells you how many posts you have in a thread.
