Elite is awarded not earned??? With 30,000 posts you better be 1337!

Nope. I don't know any mods. At least, none that have admitted they are mods (though I have my suspicions) I was as confused and surprised as everyone else when I was made Elite. Humbled, too.

Have you changed at all since this eliteness was bestowed upon you? Like for instance in how you treat common members of the forum? Or do you still consider yourself as one of the regular members?

Seems more along the lines that if you make it to 30k, somewhere along the line, you posted SOMETHING reedeeming. Well...2/3 to go...

(Me becoming elite/getting a custom title is about as likely as Hi secretly being a mod 😛)

Nope. Not at all. In fact, it still shocks me when I have a debate with someone and they throw my Elite status in my face. It doesn't make me feel any different at all.

You could go through my archived posts and see this. I've always been a pain in the ass 😛

Is that a record?

no. for example, cpa and eaglekeeper and such did their tax posts in off topic.

Let me clarify that for you.

Has anyone had their elite status taken away?

I want a custom title based around UPS but I doubt that will ever happen. I think I have to actually contribute to threads first... 😉

Learn the definition of "neffing," and then search the archives to see that the vast majority of my posts have valid content.

Yes, I have neffed from time to time, but those are a tiny minority of my posts.

Yes, but those are for specific contributions on specific topics. My contributions were on OT in general.
