Forum rank emblems

[Skip Lackie]

So a while ago I noticed new markings emblems next to our names on posts.  I discovered that I am a Rookie, which I assume is related to my count of about 110 posts.  There appear to be 14 ranks, and not even MFG appears to be anywhere close to achieving the top rank, whatever it may be called.  Should I/we care?  Is this just an automatic feature of our forum software?

I am ranked in the fourth category (out of 14), Explorer I believe, and I have over 2K posts.

I see you ALL the time (with good insight) - what do you have to do to get a higher rating - is there a secret handshake..........?

Me:  Joined in 2004 "Newbie" (1/14).  I won't live long enough to get anywhere near the Top!  At least I've got a '0' Reputation - so I've got that going for me.

Too much information!  Thanks for the link, Leo, but I've lost interest.
