Hi Thorsten,
did you change the member ranking in some way? I noticed that people below 50 posts got set back to the “newbie” status, which kind of irritates me ???

I think now the rating is better. I’m still learning about midiboxes and was already getting a very high qualification which was way more than I deserved…
The old settings have been overwritten as I updated the forum software.
However, if more people don’t agree with the default settings, I will change them. 
Best Regards, Thorsten.
does it matter? some1 new to EE and this homebru lark (like me), could post alot (again, like me :P) and become a full member or whatever the tag line is…even if they are still technically a newb (like me), doesn’t mean they know any more/less than any1 else - it’s just about how much you post, be it questions or answers, or whatever…
anyway, the important stuff is the mbhp, not a ranking system to let everyone know how hot with a soldering iron u are…
my 2 pence
Don’t worry,
leave it like it is now. As d2k says, the number of postings is not really relevant - maybe just a hint regarding the online time of each individual… ;)

Ok…what about this ranking based on midi box adventures :
Newbe = 8 Button box no LCD ???
Junior = 8 Button box / 8 faders / LCD 
Full = 8 MF / 32 Buttons / 32 Pots / LCD
God = 16 MF / 2 Cores / 242 Pots / 256 Buttons / Graphic 200 X 200 LCD / 800 + Leds / Midi - Com + Merger / Bankstick and internal power supply / and a very swish box to stuff it all in. :o :o :o :o
