I'm pretty sure a user is "Known" until 50 posts, when they become "Noted".

I don't know when they become "Deserved It".

Deserved It is something like 5000 or more, maybe

I think leaving the postcounts and using those markers would be better, I like the scrambled post counts.

The world is a car and you're the crash test dummy.

I can remove the scrambler pretty quickly.

I think we could do with some new Titles and I can directly change that but technically that should only be The MGT account that can.

I can come up with titles, but not until tomorrow at the very least.

I like this too. So we'll be nice until they're Noted.

Well, a few members have suggested not fucking with the post count scrambler.   A title for 50 posts or less is probably the answer...And there's no hurry, this can wait on ECH.

It's not like we're drowning in noobs.   :lol:

Ok, I'll leave the randomiser alone, though to be honest I preferred the one that chose a random number/direction and unit.

So the first 50 post title will be something like "protected". But less lame.
