Default TOTV Member status

I like to post this from time to time. It's been a couple years since the last time I re-posted this.

I remember when I was brand new on this forum and wondered about how members got their status on TOTV. So I dug up this post from the Admin from 2011. I'm not sure if it is still current and accurate, but here is the list of TOTV status.

0 Post = Jr Member
30 Posts = Member
100 Posts = Sr Member
500 Posts = Veteran Member
1000 Posts = Gold Member
1500 Posts = Platinum Member
2000 Posts = Soaring Eagle Member
2500 = Sage Member

Some of you clowns are way beyond 2500.

And YES I mean that in the nicest possible way.

More like should get a life 25,000 + status. I am over by 679. 25,679. This is over almost ten years however on TOTV. Most of my posts are about donating blood; movies and books I have seen or read; library stuff; political infighting with other TOTVers; NFL football pools; NCAA March Madness basketball pools; trips to DC and elsewhere; TV shows like Fargo, The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones; FunTrivia and its knockout rounds; the Numbers.com and their box office competitions and other stuff http://www.the-numbers.com/news/2227...-Review-Logan; Doggie Doo Run Run and other Villages' area dog parks or meeting areas; Barefoot and Golfing Eagles' lobster bet on the Three Word Sentence TOTV thread, etc. And lots of Happy Birthday wishes to people here in the Villages and to TOTV lurkers from near and afar.

I like clown status. So appropriate for some of us. And, yes, I'm including myself in that category.

Actually Redwitch you are one of the wisest posters on TOTV. Keep them coming. Nothing clownish about you at all. Graciegirl another 25,000 + poster would agree with that I expect.

Clowns are my favorite people, so I hope their status will be given the appreciation it deserves.

I have about six years on TOTV more than you. Used to post polls about American Idol and who had the best night and the like.

Calling people clowns always makes me laugh! It's just the perfect little poke without being nasty.

I have a number of relatives who have a pathological fear of clowns. I suppose if you read It or have seen the movie that might add to it. It (2017 film - Wikipedia)

Does being just a bit over 2,500 qualify for clown status?

(By the way, one of my twin sons has a serious fear of clowns...won't get anywhere near the movie 'It'.)
