TOTV Member designations timing?

[La lamy]

I am questioning how people on this site get their Member "designation". We all obviously started with "Junior Member", but do you remember when you were switched to "Senior"? It doesn't seem to be how long we've been on the site since I've seen people who have joined a long time ago still be "Junior". I love ones like Sage, Gold, Veteran, but my fave so far is Soaring Eagle! Maybe the moderator will chime in, but I'm curious to hear when various members' milestones happened.

I figured it out from time to time by looking at the number of other peoples post and what their designation was.

Seven months from zero posts to over 3,000. I know a Sage when I see one.

It's not the timing but the number of posts that counts.

I don't know when I turned to Sage but I can tell you for sure the majority of my post were mainly about Lobster and NOTHING but a Big Bunch of Junk :1rotfl::1rotfl::1rotfl: I'm far from a Sage. I wanna Laugh. Not much to laugh about nowadays but it still is possible.

It helped that we had to stay home due to the virus. Otherwise would take forever or even longer to become a sage

Lots of people are stuck at home. Not everyone is punching out 25+ posts per day..

Your posts are cool because I don't think I've ever seen you Psychanalize anyone. Don't your fingers hurt though? Go Stu Go!!

Does this mean Gracie is not the world leader?

I still maintain that once the pandemic is over and life allows us to do what we came here for my posting time on here will dwindle to perhaps once or twice a day.

Back in college my worst class was psychology. Told myself after that to avoid analyzing anything other than numbers, psychobabble is not my forte.

You realize, now that people know what it takes to be a Sage, we're going to have people commenting just to comment on every post.
Wait... I'm not a sage... am I able to comment on this subject???

[La lamy]

It does seem like it goes by the amount of posts. Looks like I have a couple thousand to go before I become a Soaring Eagle!! Better stop using the thumbs up icon and always respond. Then I stop before I get to 3000s so I don't lose it. ;)

I like hearing all the voices of TOTV. As I paint during the day my iPad is open and I look in every once in awhile, and nothing is sadder than when there are no new posts.

I slipped the Moderators five bucks and became an "Oracle" overnight

This is correct..

My google search pulled up:

no significance other than a forum participation trophy!

Medical definition: most highly correlates to affinity for technology over outside activities, which can cause avoidance of domestic chores and irritable partner syndrome.

Miriam Webster: a technological participation trophy for common area gossip groups or confirmation biases, replacing the local group gatherings of like minded friends to eat, drink and rehash or debate common knowledge topics or news of the day.

That graph was great to see. Thanks!

I am not sure I have the stamina to move past the Junior Member level.

Quality vs quantity is also a good thing!

Oh my God, you better get out of the basement!
Just kidding Stu, enjoy your time chatting with your fellow Villages.. :coolsmiley:

Thank you. This of course makes me wonder which moderator just wrote that.

In my case, MY designation; AGED, was bestowed on me after giving a large bribe to the moderator and directing him to put huge amounts of posts under my name, when in reality, I only have 800.

Wouldn't we all like to give designations to certain moderators?

Actually have noticed for the past month or so my posting is way down.

Agreed!!!
