I was just wondering if there should be something when you reach a certain amount of posts, like 500 or 1000. just because you have 30 posts does not mean you are an advanced member. I was just thinking we could add some higher ranks.

Yeah like my rank should be semi-noob but I'm an advanced member.  :D  I guess advanced refers more to how well you know the forums instead of ants or at least that's true in my case.

that is what i am thinking. I am equal in rank with ant_dude and antdrew and dspdrew, and yet i do not compare to them even remotely.

you need 30 posts to be an advanced member, 20 to be a member.

I am for this.

 

I have been part of the forums for a little while, but neither my activity or my knowledge of ants should suggest I am advanced. 

 

Edit: Over 3 years now.. did not think it was even that long.
