Yippee! Like SNL's Sally O'Malley, I'm 50! 50 posts! It took me nine hours apparently. So I'm hoping what you see here is my new "Lewis Carroll" Member Status. It's the little things!

Here I wander in to find out how much longer I have until I can get rid of Jane Austen (UGH), and now I'm craving pecan pie.  Thanks a bunch.

(wonders who's open with decent pie at this time of night....)

Hey Harvey,
Did you make down this far? May I ask my original question AGAIN? Not WHAT the current Member Status Positions are.

WHY DO YOU NEED THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE? Huh

We don't need them, but we like them. Cheesy  The software default has member levels based on number of posts.  I don't know if it's something that has to be there but they are and, as I say, people seem to like 'em.  Early on, when the board started getting more populated, the consensus was that we ought to use something more related to authors/books/etc. rather than the default labels.

I am glad I found this thread ... I so didn't get what my status meant...(and it, in and of itself, was a good read.)

Oh, that's why I was having that sinking feeling. Or perhaps it was because I once lived in East Orange.

By the way, welcome, Ricard of Orange.

Yes, that would be the set of Titanic, The Musical. NO in my design the boat does not sink! (Musicals are really all about the temporary suspension of disbelief. We kknow it sinks, why show it.Smiley

Maybe I'll change it to Ragtime shortly ...
