Adoption

Newbie

OK perhaps it is the PMS talking, so indulge me for one more question.  At what point is one no longer a "NEWBIE" on the bump?

  • This is not meant to be snarky, but why does it matter? Some people have started new SNs just to become newbies again. And I honestly can't tell you the last time I noticed someone's "status" on TB

    I always notice a poster's status and it usually colors the way I read the post. Someone who is at least bronze will understand acronyms more and probably be more likely to laugh at a little sarcasm whereas with a newbie I try to use fewer acronyms and I might point out otherwise "obvious" things like a different board that might help a particular question etc.

    OP I'm pretty sure it is 500 posts to bronze.  To get there you can post an "ask me anything!" topic and answer everyone's questions one by one.  :-)

    Dr. L - It's not that big of a deal, but I was just wondering how long someone is a newbie since I have been participating on this board for over 6 months now on a regular basis.

    Jillian - LOL - I don't think I will be doing that just to get to bronze.

    See I just combined two responses into one.  :)
