How are people ranked here, I see ranks like Pengo, Tuxedo Sam, Chilly Willy, etc... But how are the ranks choosen?  ???

Thanks to bobo for telling me this years ago...


The list of membergroups is available in the Administrators section of the site, invisible to all but myself, Chuck, Tam and Red Ant. Here is the current list.

Not entirely sure about this, but I think:

Pretty Geeky: 50,000+
Geek: 100,000+
Super Geek: 200,000+

I think you're right...

Yes...those were introduced after Phil and I both reached the six-figures. Then Howard (who still had 50,000+ at the time) was given the "Pretty Geeky" ranking.

Yes, sometime in early 2008, I believe.

In case it isn't clear or obvious from snoz's post.  All the ranks are names of penguin characters in cartoons, comics, films, etc.  In a previous incarnation of the board the ranks were different species of penguin such as rockhopper, gentoo, etc

Yeah, I remember that. However, I think they began with White-Flippered Penguin and got as high as Royal Penguin (with other names such as Yellow-Eyed Penguin and a few others which I am drawing a blank on). There was also Emperor Penguin, but that was a special rank which only Chucky had. Those of us who were 00zers prior to April 2004 would probably remember.

I am worried what will be above Super Geek, especially when 500,000 is reach.

Since you will be the first one in the history of inthe00s (and probably in the history of messageboards in general) to reach that mark, I recommend we call it 'Eno'

Yeap, "doing the eno"

Hyper Geek, maybe?

That's a good one...although I thought of "Mega Geek" as a possibility. Maybe Chucky will decide.
