    Have anyone noticed this becides me? People consider themselves a "senior" member and they only have 100 posts or so XD. I have seen this a couple of times and I just luaghed I mean you could pull off 100 posts in like 1 week that is most definetly NOT senior XD. Really I wont consider myself a senior member untill I hit 500 posts and I am here about 1 years XD.
     
    I dont think you are a senior member at 100 posts but you're not exactly a newbie either, at about 50 posts I would consider someone out of newbiesville and someone whos just umm.."regular?"
    I say a senior member is someone who is well known at PC, and i'm not exactly that well known.
     
    yea I consider people who are Veterans, that been here a while. Like I been here close to the begining Nov 15, 2002 long time eh XD
    So even if I lost all my posts I would still be one :)
     
    *points at join date* I don't consider mehself a veteran, but I know I'm a senior member. O_o;

    It ticks me off when a person with 100 posts says they're seniors, that's not true. Once you hit 500 posts and are known then that's when you're a senior member. --;; I dunno what's a person with 1,000+ posts called O_o;;

    Er... 'Super Senior Member'? XD I dunno, 'Senior' reminds me of old people...

    And I don't think that post count has anything to do with whether you're a Senior member or not. It just depends how long you've been here. If you're not active, but you've been here for a while, you shouldn't go calling yourself a 'Senior Member' just for attention. You need to be active too.
     
    Senior members is the default vB title for a member with 100+ posts. Those people aren't really being vain. Personally it doesn't matter to me if you've been here since day 1 or yesterday. Depends on what kind of person you are and how you post. =\ Postcount really means nothing to me, and I'd 0 mine out to prove it if I could.
     
    At least this isn't a place that discriminates against n00bs...that's why I'm still here. Anywhere I go for the first time, if I get one snide comment from an established member just because I'm new I automatically leave. Of course I'm a n00b compared to you all...I'm insignificant, but it doesn't mean that I'm not a contributing member. It takes time to build a reputation...months usually. Even if I was able to churn out 50 posts a day (although I did yesterday o_o;; ) it wouldn't mean that I was doing anything important...the thing is I, or the other n00bs, don't know anyone here really so we're always at a disadvantage as there's no way to enter the inner circle that was forged here long ago. At the pokemon community that I was exiled from for trying to expose the corrupt admin, I was in the inner circle before the admin turned everyone against me, and I know how exclusive and un-enterable the inner circles of internet communities are...that's why I haven't been able to fit into anywhere else. N00bs are usually seen as random drones and, thus, are brushed aside. I don't care if that's the case with me...I'm just glad there's no turmoil here, and that's why I stay, and in time I will become a little more established here, as will all n00bs who make an attempt to be a useful member. It just takes a lot of time and a lot of thought.

    My 2 cents...

    Post count has nothing to do with being a senior, it is how long you have been at the forum that makes you a senior.
     
    I could make 100 post in a day so I think it has nothing to do with post count.
    I think it's when your active and have been here for a while.

    I've been here for less than three months so I don't consider myself one.
     
    ive been here 3 months andit says senior it means that i have a certain amount of posts
     
    I think a senior member is someone who has developed their reputation at PC to the highest level.

    It took someone like 100marios less time to become "senior" because he joined and started his funny stuff immediately. Someone like me took a few months to become "senior" because I wasn't well-known until about 6 months after I joined. It all depends.
     
    Well, tmbjr has a point. Ya gotta be a character to remember that person ^^ Posts are not always guaranteed to make ya a senior =P Mostly activeness does ^-^ Hey, I'm not that active *5 posts per day, and can't log on sundays most of the times* but for some reason these people know my name O_O;;

    *dies*

    Hmm, am I active enough to be a senior?
    Atleast I think I am....
     
    Seniors? Pfft. I don't believe it. Why should anyone be discriminated against for spending more or less time here? =\ My "post reply" button is any different than a "newbie"s or anyone else's. We all make up the posts and community, it's not like people who are well known should consider themselves "senior", nor should it be something you shoot for. Having friends and being well known is nice, but really it's nothing tangible you obtain.

    Well, then technically I am a senior also according to the custom title, but I have only been here 3 months. Think of it this way: just say a newbie gets 700 posts in less then 24 hours, is he or she a senior?

    Uhh yes? :P j/k
    No is the real answer right?

    But still what Kairi said is true. Every member is important.
     
    Hm... Tough subject. To me, senior members are equivalent to veterans. People who know the ropes of PC and post all-around. Not just in the crush thread or in some RP. Also, people who, like Moonlight said, have been here since the beginning. Like at the old PC. I am in no way a veteran yet. I've a few months to go till I hit that "supreme" status, lol. But, I don't believe in the "noob" system, so technically, in my eyes, ya'll are all members.
