    So right now we have 3 user titles (based on post count) that appear below members usernames

    We need more of them and something a bit better than Junior, Member, Senior. We need something that fits a gun board. Suggestions?

    We also have it so you can do custom user titles in your control panel. But we need some better default titles :thumbsup:

    Don't get me wrong, this is a great board, but the relative importance of titles, and post counts is way over-inflated in my opinion. I know ( and respect) several folks on other boards who have 20,000 posts.... most of which are a couple of emoticons, or one word responses. If titles must be incorporated, just use calibers.... from .22 short up to 45-110..........

    just another opinion :)

    I'm not saying post count is a big deal. But we had might as well come up with something more catchy then what is the default. If anyone doesn't like what we come up with you can customize your user title to whatever you like. Or nothing at all :thumbsup:

    Only thing I could come up with that would fit a gun board and I'm sure other boards probably use are:

    Novice
    Plinker
    Marksman
    Sharpshooter
    Expert
    Master
    Grandmaster

    Just my two pennies.

    You could use the USPSA ranking system -

    Unqualified - maybe up to 50 posts?
    D Shooter - 51 to 150?
    C Shooter - 151 to 300?
    B Shooter 301 to 500?
    A Shooter -501-1000?
    Master - 1001 - 2000?
    Grand Master -2000+?

    Here is what we will go with for now. You can set up your own custom title if you want.
