Ok, seeing as I've forgotten the original member titles, why not everyone chip in and we'll add a little fun to the proceedings?

Starting with busker, there are 5 levels of membership depending on the amount of posts made. As it stands, the tiers are as follows:
0-100
101-250
251-500
501-999
1000+

But that's not set in stone. If you have any suggestions, I'd be happy to hear them :)

Boundaries seem cool and the title scheme you had before was pretty fun, coming up through the gigging ranks :)

Also, a further request... I know nothing about coding so if this is tricky I apologise; I am not trying to make work for you!

Is there a way of "Favouriting" a thread? If say, I really like a song, I can hit an "add favourite! button, then it will be added to my own personal list which will grow over time. Kinda my own forum playlist?

Just an idea  ;D

good idea from James, if that is possible, some way of seeing the appreciation of other members??? so, that we can have a sort of forum top 5 every year?

also perhaps we should have some ranks above 1000 posts to keep the challenge, so an extra category for 2500 +?
Schavuitje and I made across a 1000 already (which was coded "world domination"  ::)

but i think it is also is very good to stay at the level of Busker forever, in real life i didn't even make it to that level

Dutchbeat has a point, keeping us as Buskers is a healthily humbling experience :D

For what it's worth, these are the titles I've though of...

0-100 - Busker
101-250 - Rough Demo
251-500 - Studio EP
501-999 - International Album
1000-2000 - Platinum Record
2000+ - Dave Grohl

Spending soo much time here to then be labelled as 'Dave Grohl' would be the biggest disappointment since the mint I thought Id found turned out to be a sugared almond.

ok, perhaps not everybody likes David Grohl as much as Chainsaw does

for the rest, very good suggestions from Chainsaw

for 2000+,  forum members may be entitled to pick your own title?
(if technically possible)

oh well, busker is fine with me

'Street Magician' seems a bit out of place... perhaps 'heroin addict'? :P

Whats worse than being dead? A magician.
