i think tht ur rank should be given by num of hours u spend on the forum instead of num of post cause any old noob can post crap and become a high member...e.g.
1 week worth of hours = junior member
1 month worth of hours = full member
1 year worth of hours =.....
summin special like golden member and ur sent a key ring or summin
only draw back is ppl will end up leaving thier comps on to cheat
