I have only recently joined this fair forum and when I started I was classed as a "stranger".

Now after 25ish posts, I find myself elevated to the rank of "Newbie"

I note that there are several other elevations I presume carpal tunnel means that you have done so many posts that your fingers are shafted.

Could someone humour me and give me the full list

Cheers

Fragger

Some guys found a list from somewhere.....

Dont Understand Poo-Bah, I know it is a character in the Gilbert & Sullivan Musical The Mikado,

Can someone let me in on the joke?


Think we need a new category as several posters are in the 3000+ range

Maybe a competition for the next name

how about " SMTPTOTGC"

From HTL posted in Jan 09

"Poobah is a term derived from the name of the haughty Pooh-Bah in Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado. In this comic opera, Pooh-Bah holds numerous exalted offices, including Lord Chief Justice, Chancellor of the Exchequer, Master of the Buckhounds, Lord High Auditor, Groom of the Back Stairs, and Lord High Everything Else. The name has come to be used as a mocking title for someone self-important or high-ranking and who either exhibits an inflated self-regard, who acts in several capacities at once, or who has limited authority while taking impressive titles"

I reckon anyone with over 5,000 posts should be known as a "Homer"...

That explains a lot then.
