If we were to stick with the same names we would probably just change Standard to Bronze, but I'm sure we can come up with better names than these.

Standard - 50 to 249 posts
Silver - 250 to 999 posts
Gold - 1000 to 2499 posts
Platinum - 2500 to 9999 posts

We're looking for something a little more creative and relevant to this industry.

We thought of that, but you're getting warmer ;) Think along the lines of something like these.

Fuse Holder
Patch Cord
Processor
Head Unit

...oO(wonder if Fastlearner sells Amway ;)

I like the gauge size

1/0 = Where do you buy 1/0?
4 Gauge = Pro installer
8 Gauge = 1st amp install
10 Gauge = weaksauce

Here's what I have in mind so far.

Stock Boy - Suspended

Fuse Holder - Rookie
Patch Cord - Standard
Transmitter - Silver
Amplifier - Gold
Alternator - Platinum
Processor - Moderator
Head Unit - Administrator ;)

I know we have a lot of creative members, so let's hear your ideas.

Twister and Taper- 50-249
Solderer- 250-999

Something more along that line?? Buddy of mine has his forum class set up as "Mr. Newbie" for himself..... been there for years, few thousand posts..... just looks hillarious.

I just want to say that it's great that this site is always changing. No one likes stagnation.

That's my opinion. Take it, leave it, or correct me.

Admin - boss, voltage (but I like "Head Unit")
Moderator - foreman, judge, spectrum analyzer, damping factor
Platinum - megawatt
Gold - kilowatt
Silver - watt
Standard - milliwatt
Rookie - microwatt
Guest - just looking
Suspended - blown fuse, circuit breaker

abbr. W, unit of power, or work done per unit time... It is used as a measure of electrical and mechanical power.
Oh, by the way Gus, I've seen Mr. Newbie. Sounded like he really knew what he was talking about...made me do a double-take. lol In fact, I think I even have a thread that he wrote saved in my files (but I can't find it).

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.

Don't worry, the print and white background will stay the same.
