    The medals are awarded based on numbers of posts. You get your first one at 21 posts, then 100, 250, 500, 1,000, 1,200, 2,000 then one more for each 1,000 posts after that. There is absolutely no importance attached to numbers of medals or posts. It's just a little add on for fun.

    You can "rank up" by participation in the forum, and being recognized by your fellow "Rogues" as a worthwhile contributor to the general information on the board. Take your time, post well thought out and non-inflammatory missives, and "rank" will come to you.

    Pretty much the exact opposite of what you are doing now

    Be kind, he hopes someday to join you exhalted three, but then so do I. I can remember my first dozen posts and feeling like a cat in a room of rocking chairs hoping not to make a fool of myself in my ignorance. Since I have come to accept my foolish ignorance, I can curl up in the corner and take a nap.:)

    Baaaaaaahh! don't encourage him. I don't remeber you pushing the bounds of the 'dumb question rule' when you first popped up. Besides, the bar is set pretty low for Texas!!!:p

    Exalted? Sublime, supreme, wonderful,...maybe, but exalted? Not yet. We are but the humble servants of Carl and skipper.

    I now realize including formerjughead was a strech, but it did seem the kind thing to do at the time. It does warm my cold heart to see that despite your august and lofty perch in the heavans of our forum, you can still display such humility to those of us not yet worthy!:)

    Ha. Cats and rocking chairs...lol.
    I have long since realized I have NO game here. The best I can hope for is to ask a question that doesn't ask for a smack upside the head in return... Maybe bring a small nut of knowledge I've gleaned from somewhere else from someone smarter than I. Or maybe just bring a disconcerted smile to one of the less intelligent rogues here. Am happy to be gently ignored, like the retarded son you'd keep in the attic.

    Just because we let you Texans in, doesn't mean that we don't keep a firm eye on the lot of you.

    We're still not sure that we going to let Jughead stay. The discussion thread in the moderator's area is still open...

    Just because you are paranoid, does not mean they are not out to get you!

    The rookie asked a legit question on how to brown-nose while trying to look good about it and y'all came out and wrecked his thread. Probably ran him off too. For shame....

    Dry your eyes Carl.....you know I would never lump you in with the rest of those martians. You are at the top of the Texas bell curve.
