Have you enabled cookies?

I have never turned them off.

Apemantus, I somehow doubt it is the volume of posting that advances us. I have noted only one or two 'Member' status, and a humongous number of 'Junior Member' status, from whom there have been a LOT of posts.

Depends on your definition of LOTS - most boards I have seen using similar software, a lot would be 100 or so to make you a normal Member and then 1000 would give you extra status. As far as I am aware, no-one here has done 100 posts! I would just ignore the terminology as everyone who knows the boards knows your name! Why do you need anything to bolster your reputation or why would you consider it bad when you are called a Junior Member? I am sure you have no ego so just chillax!

The bolding is working fine for me - I am logged in, with cookies enabled - it does sometimes show earlier posts as being bold if they had only just been updated when I was last here, but it's a small wrinkle that will surely resolve in time. Again, chill and enjoy!

Well obviously, with a new board everyone starts at zero!
How would you expect this to be otherwise...

You'll be a 'regular member' in 40 posts time pp

I for one welcome the new format. I'm a fan of dead simplicity and efficiency over bloat and complexity any day, but I don't think the format/usability are too hard to swallow, and this addresses many problems we've had with the board in the past, namely with trolls. This message board software allows much more granular control over posts.

I do agree, though, about the enhanced usability of the old perl-driven board. It's much easier to get a visualization of the flow of a thread. I guess there is no one best way to sort and display and organize lots of information, but I think that one came pretty close. I actually developed a board exactly like the old one, but with user logins and post tracking. I'd have liked to see it used on this site, but oh well. The "old school" boards look too primitive for most people.

You're no junior

Hey pantiespooper,

I've been following your posts for years. Bet many others have too. You may be a "junior member" because of some bs on this new forum, but to me you're one of the class acts. So no worries!

Best wishes from one of your fans,
