I apologize if this has been addressed before, but can anyone update me on the titles (under a poster's name) being used by this forum? Under the FAQ section, the following titles are listed along with the required number of posts to get them:

0 stranger
25 newbie
50 journeyman
100 member
200 enthusiast
400 addict
700 old hand
1200 veteran
1600 Pooh-Bah
2500 Carpal Tunnel

Besides "stranger", I have seen none of the above titles. I have seen: Novice Poster, Found the: Starting Line / Course / Wind, and Decent or Great Sailor.

Are there numerical values attached to these titles? Are the titles manually assigned or automatic?

On this forum, I have found a person with 8 posts classified as a "stranger", while another person with 1 post is a "Novice Poster". There is also a "Novice Poster" with 53 posts, while another person with 39 post has "Found the Wind".

Just curious...
