Just noticed that I have a nickname "Ghost" on my posts and others have various other nicknames. I tried to search the FAQ and didn't find out what is up with this.

Just wondering...

    It depends how many posts you've made. When you get to a certain number, you get 'Sad', later you get 'unemployable' and when you hit something like 60,000, you get 'I spend far too much time on here'. (Actually, you only get Pearl Jam song titles undernieth). :)

    Ghost -- 0
    Animal -- 50
    Red Mosquito -- 100
    Dissident -- 250
    Soldier of Love -- 500
    Given to Fly -- 1,000
    Love Boat Captain -- 1,500
    Faithful -- 2,500
    Sad -- 4,000
    Hitchhiker -- 4,100
    Rival -- 5,000
    Cropduster -- 7,500
    Gone -- 10,000
    Comatose -- 15,000
    Marker in the Sand -- 20,000
    Unemployable -- 25,000


    Found this from another thread, although I don't think it's 100% correct. I think Marker in the Sand starts around 17,500 seeing that tybird has that rank with 17,600+ posts and the person below him with 17,200 posts is at the Comatose rank. Also, Big Wave is somewhere up top too and I think that one comes with 26,000+ posts.

    With as much as this type of question gets asked, they should really make a sticky about this topic....

    like the user who said it before.. they ought to make this a sticky
    I just don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die.
