How to become a Senior member

Just wondering what it takes?

Must not be the join date??

I’m sure it has to do with your post count as it does on other fourms

1000 posts.

Post count??

If thats how one becomes a senior member that sucks

Post count dont mean a single thing!

Hell Ive seen guys with high post counts that I wouldnt take info from
More time on PC than the range :smiley:

Anyway thank you for the reply

It’d be nice if you had to interview to reach senior status… but we all know that’s out of the question. I will say, most senior members are worth listening to… most.

Post counts here tend to have a bit more value than those at most other places. Not so much of the “+1” and “tag” nonsense.

+1 :wink:

LOL:D

It is a post count-driven thing, but we will not hesitate to delete a member’s posts if we find him post-whoring or driving to drive up a post count without really adding anything to the board. For that reason, our Senior Members tend to be contributors who can be taken seriously.

Now that that has been cleared up…

What’s up with site sponsors?

it does say something about a member that they’ve managed to get to a thousand posts on this board. if you post bullshit, or often post gay one-liners or +1s or etcetera, you’ll be dealt with. but there are still a few douche-bags with high post-counts here… it’s not a given.

Count me as one exception to that. :smiley:

I look more for join date and SME/Industry tags than anything else. A post count does not correlate to knowledge imho.

What weight or value does the senior member title give you?

I could name the people I count as “Senior Members”, no matter their post count.

Time on the range doesn’t necessarily translate to anything by way of knowledge either, FWIW. I’ve seen what some people consider “shooting practice”, and it’s not pretty, constructive or worthwhile – IMO.

Since the subject of being a site sponsor came up, I visited the link ac posted but it didn’t give instructions. Are we still doing gunpal? I don’t feel comfortable dealing with them since all the discrepancies arose. Mods?

Gpal is no longer accepted.

Haha… well… what is an accepted method? Maybe the info thread can be updated?

You can send a money order, cash or check.

Don’t worry about titles unless they are Mod, IP, or SME.
