    I was making a small joke about that posting being number 713. 7 for good luck, 13 for bad luck.

    Then if you have ever heard the phrase: Luck of the Irish--and also being that im of Irish stock. Then factor in the good luck ive had and the bad luck ive had(more bad than good-that is) and being that im Irish--the good luck part is greatly lacking on my part.

    Know what I mean Vern?

    Howdy Boys!!

    Don't suppose one of you gentlemen can clue this gal in on the "ranks" and "medal" system? I checked FAQ's but couldn't find anything....in the interest of keeping this thread "clutter-free"...someone can email me the info!

    Many Thanks!
    Chris

    No problem Bowfin,

    It's simple, the more you post the more medals you get, the first is at 11, then 51, then 125, then 250, etc etc.

    The three star crests and the other crests you see, like mine and Carl's indicate that we are moderators. Members with super powers and ability! ;) It just means that we have some powers over people's posts within the forums our names are attached too. Nothing major, we only act if someone is being unruly/swearing too much/racist etc.

    Or sometimes we close and move threads that are off topic to their appropriate forums, like this one, which is now in the "Free Fire Zone"
