I'm not even resident yet

Yeah... I thought it was 500 posts for Resident rank, you should be one by now. Mayb Veterans could be those with over 1000 posts or something?

Let me go and FIND OUT. I mean that to mean LET ME MESS AROUND WITH STUFF IN THE ADMIN PANEL AND FIND OUT.

Edit: I don't see the Veteran status in the list, so I'm going to guess no.

I think we should add it.

Does that mean that some of us might become residents?

Dude that would be awesome!

All hail the kween!

Because let's face it: Arashi, tay and EverPhoenix are definitely Resident status.

I think I've explained how that stuff works quite often before.

You know you can click on any member's rank and see how it all works (that's why it's yellow-ish and underlined). A little popup will open and tell you all about the levels and ranks.

There is a significant difference between levels and ranks. A level is something that's related to your post count, your rank is very much not.

Rank popup wrote:Additional ranks can be found underneath the normal levels. They are prefixed with the word "Rank".

Administrator
This rank indicates a Forum Administrator.

Moderator
This rank indicates a Forum Moderator.

TerraEarth Resident
Once members are with us for a significant amount of time and effort, they can become Residents. Resident status comes with a number of special privilages. Only forums administrators can grant resident status to a member.

A rank of level called "Veteran" never existed. It's something that's sometimes used to refer to members that have been around very long.

All veterans are ranked as TerraEarth Resident. But not all TerraEarth Residents are veterans.
