    Have been away in the PNG Highlands since I posted this. So to answer all.

    Joshstix

    Yes I did look at FAQ answered questions before posting
    http://www.toymods.net/forums/faq.ph...vileged_status
    tells me that a 1st year Apprentice needs to have at least 0-4 posts - so my question stands. Why have I reverted to a 1st year Apprentice.

    Kirsty 2520

    I think I have a lot more than 5 posts and my rep does not have anything to do with it. I refer you to my response to Joshstix.

    Please read above.

    I have been posting on the toymods Forum (s) for a long time. A little bit slow over the past 2 years 'cos I live overseas. I take a lot of care to search prior to asking a question. I think given the explainations provided in FAQs my post was very reasonable. But to seek clarification! you get no Rank for 0-4 posts, 1st year apprentice for 5-50, Grease monkey for 51-whatver, etc. Is this correct? If this is the case I will pull my head in.

    Do a search before you make suggestions of that type. I have been a financial member of Toymods I think from year 1 (member 75 to be exact). Apologies are sought.

    I am somewhat annoyed with your inferences. Maybe a little look at the membership lists would have been useful. I also made the change to Toymods Member after the system stuffed up on the change to the new forum and had me down as a forum member. I am sure that if you want to have a bit of a search round in this forum you will find a thread with a conversation between me and the administrator and his advice on how I would change things. Again apologies are sought.

    Hey ddeane, I just had a look at my two posts in this thread and neither of them made any personal reference to your comments or questions in a negaitve or derogatory manner.

    You might be thinking my comment above was taking a dig at you but I was actually taking a dig at my own user title after WiLo's statement. If this was taken the wrong way I apologise

    Craig.
    THIS statement is correct.

    you have to reach 51 posts to get to the next level...... this is what i meant when I said

    looking at your post count you haven't yet reached the next level
    .

    You have to how ever look at it from another point of view to.
    Wilo in his statement about it looking as though you "toymods member" tag is fake is just that a statement. in which he has backed up with an appology if it was wrong

    if they are a real financial member i apologise
    Every other financial member has the tag "toymods club member" and yours is alittle different, therefore people will question it. I ahve now spoken to Rod (thetoyman75) about changing your tag so it reads as everyone else's does so NOT to allow this problem to arise again.

    You have to remember that not everyone has access to the membership lists anymore as they are no longer a part of the forum.

    I do appologise if what I have said sounds alittl ahrsh at times but I still think that having the tag names locked so they cannot be changed by every individual is a good thing.

    as kirsty has already pointed out, in my first point were i was pointing out the difference i said i apologise if i am wrong, and seeing as your title is worded differently to every other financial club member IMO its could have been plausable that you did it yourself. but obviously now know this isnt the case.

    At 5 posts you go over to 1st year apprentice. I believe before that it just shows as junior member.

    Craig, you are currently sitting on 47 posts in the technical sections. 61 all up.

    If you were once ranked as a Grease Monkey, then maybe (as has been suggested) some of your posts have been deleted. This could've happened if an entire thread was removed.

    Either that or the thresholds for the ranking system was changed since you last logged on. If my memory serves me correctly, we had a play around with this right at the beginning.

    They start with the tag Toymods Club Member, but members can change it.

    I just checked and Both JCMF and ddeane are both members of the club members group. You guys should have full access to everything like any other club member. I think the problem with your title thing would be due to not being able to use some words to stop people faking it.

    If you guys would like to have the tag say Toymods Club Member let me know and I'll see if I can get it to change.
