DSelver Novice Apr 21, 2001, 3:46 PM Post #1 of 22 (7783 views) Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman Can't Post What are the criteria by which these are set?

Pro_4 User Apr 21, 2001, 4:02 PM Post #2 of 22 (7782 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post It goes by how many posts you have. For example i was just promoted to newbie for posting 25 times. Some things like moderator and administrator can only be acheived by them making you that and not by posting 1,000,000,000 times. :) Hope that explains it. Always add fun to Perl $fun = "fun"; $perl = "Perl"; print " Always add $fun to $perl"; die;

Jasmine Administrator Apr 24, 2001, 10:10 AM Post #8 of 22 (7742 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Well, any word suggestions? And note that the use of "newbie" isn't intended to imply a person's programming level. Rather, new users to our forums are "newbies", which of course they are until they post a few times.

Pro_4 User Apr 24, 2001, 2:21 PM Post #9 of 22 (7737 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post I think if you replaced newbie with Apprentice it would be pretty neat. Also it would stick with the guild theme ( apprentice, journeyman, master or member in forum terms ). :) Always add fun to Perl $fun = "fun"; $perl = "Perl"; print " Always add $fun to $perl"; die; (This post was edited by Pro_4 on Apr 24, 2001, 1:25 PM)

James Troll Apr 24, 2001, 3:36 PM Post #10 of 22 (7734 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Yeah, here I am aspiring to become a newbie. Oh well ... least I got my little A thingie.

Pro_4 User Apr 24, 2001, 3:37 PM Post #11 of 22 (7733 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post LOL, I wish i had a A thingie. But i am not that talented at perl so i wouldnt be deserving of it. :( oh well Always add fun to Perl $fun = "fun"; $perl = "Perl"; print " Always add $fun to $perl"; die;

Pro_4 User Apr 24, 2001, 3:39 PM Post #12 of 22 (7732 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post james do you think the apprentice title would be a good idea?? or am i just crazy ( dont answer that last part) :) Always add fun to Perl $fun = "fun"; $perl = "Perl"; print " Always add $fun to $perl"; die;

James Troll Apr 24, 2001, 3:50 PM Post #13 of 22 (7731 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Yeah, I like apprentice -- reminds me of an old joke, which I can't repeat here.

Pro_4 User Apr 24, 2001, 3:52 PM Post #14 of 22 (7730 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Hehe :) Well atleast someone likes my idea. Always add fun to Perl $fun = "fun"; $perl = "Perl"; print " Always add $fun to $perl"; die;

Jasmine Administrator Apr 24, 2001, 8:52 PM Post #15 of 22 (7728 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post From this point forward, "newbies" will be known as "apprentices". It doesn't go back to previous posts and change them, but it'll show apprentice from this point forward. Thanks for the input!

Pro_4 User Apr 25, 2001, 11:59 AM Post #16 of 22 (7725 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post WOW cool, my idea was used. I feel extremely special now. Always add fun to Perl $fun = "fun"; $perl = "Perl"; print " Always add $fun to $perl"; die;

widexl Novice Apr 26, 2001, 8:14 AM Post #17 of 22 (7717 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Sorry Jasmine I have do something stupid by editing my post. The name "apprentices" is nice. I understand that the word newbie is normal for an forum, but i don't like the word newbie. Henk

freddo User May 22, 2001, 10:28 AM Post #18 of 22 (7686 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Hello Jasmine, this is strange, when i post my title didnt changed from "newbie" to "apprentice", does the modification only affect new users? freddo ;--- Real programmers don't eat cache.

Jasmine Administrator May 22, 2001, 4:39 PM Post #19 of 22 (7681 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Hmmm... that's weird < ----Jasmine imitating Microsoft tech support I really don't know why it didn't change. I manually changed it for you.

freddo User May 23, 2001, 5:26 AM Post #20 of 22 (7676 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post Hehe, and it even changed into journeyman, nice... And i can assure you, the M$ Techie arent that courteous, or quick at solving problems, you're waaaay more efficient. Thanks, Jasmine. ;--- Real programmers don't eat cache.

Jasmine Administrator May 23, 2001, 11:11 AM Post #21 of 22 (7674 views) Re: Titles: Newbie, Stranger, Journeyman [In reply to] Can't Post I'm guessing that the logic of WWWThreads' user titles says "find the current title and then see if it's supposed to change". But because because "newbie" was completely deleted, there's nothing to look for. So I've added newbie back for posts 0-1, and it should change to stranger for posts 2-25. Thanks for pointing this out -- hopefully this fix will work. Jasmine
