What's the Rank ?

[Nautical]

Joined this SRC site on 3 Feb 2004. Noticed I am a Plankton.

Saw others as Copepod, Triggerfish, Sea Cucumber, etc. with small squares indicated.

Is this a ranking system and what are the ranks?

How to get promoted as I need to have a couple of crabs on my shoulders ?

Ranking means nothing in this forum and is by no means a way to assess someone's knowledge and experience.

Some of those large number of posts are as clueless as any newbie.

Most of their posts are 90% rubbish, 9% chatter and perhaps 1% of experience or hearsay.

There are however inactive members who have real knowledge to impart, so you'll have to exercise a bit of judgement.

We're in a midst of 'cleaning the house', so do remember to read the Terms & Regulation of Use as well as the many Guidelines. You can start here.

Thanks for enlightenment and kind advice.

Like the way you segregate the types of members who post.

To his credit, Dispar has matured a little and reduced his 'Crap Ratio' considerably.

There are some of course, who consistently maintains some high ratings

So our favourite arachnid I hope.
