It was bad enough with Junior's and Member's trying to become Senior Members, but now people trying to post non-meaning crap to become these "special" statuses really annoys me:) I think it should stay how it used to be, I know we probably can't get this changed since it's owned by a Company, blah blah, but I want to see how much support I have :p Thanks all!

I find it funny that I have been here since the old UBB days and way before the crashing of UBB when we hit 10,000 members and I have alot fewer posts than alot of people here. I figure that my posts(this is an exception) are useful. I try to help people and comment on things in the off-topic when I see fit. Some of the elite members are wiser than thou so they have more to say than I do but some people on this forum just post anything that pops into their head just to get a higher post count. Like it makes them a better man or woman. I FART IN YOUR GENERAL DIRECTION.

I agree. A lot of people start posting bs just to get to
golden, diamond, or whatever.

The Elite status was better because one could obtain that through good and meaningful posts, but now I find a bunch of crap being posted just to become one of the new titles.

Who was the last member to be granted the Elite title?

Does anyone remember when there weren't member statuses for a while there? Thing was people would act like senior member or member vs. junior meant something. So there were just members so everyone was equal (what an idea). Funny how that's gone 180°.

i completely agree, since the "titles" changed there has been much crap posted, ohh well, it just makes it harder for the actuall post that might be worth reading harder to find, but oh well, i doubt it will change.

So when does the "1.13GHz-P3-that-works member" take effect? 1 Million posts? :D (btw, I liked the old smilies better)
