Title: Number of posts required to become a 'hero member'
Post by: Penzance-Paddington on October 01, 2015, 22:12:28
Does anyone know how many posts I have to make on here to become a hero member please?

I believe it is 1000 posts.  Wouldn't this have been better in a thread of it's own, maybe in the "News, Help & Assistance" board?

It is 300 - and I'm now splitting these posts off into a separate topic. CfN.

Thanks for clarifying CfN.  I was clearly thinking of another forum :P :D

If it's 300, I'm well on my way!

You are indeed 'well on your way', Penzance-Paddington.  :-X

That's nice then.

I'd perhaps say that having made 43 posts out of a target of 300 is more like 'making a start' to the journey, rather than being 'well on the way', but they all count!  ;D

No problem at all, Brucey!  ;)

Actually, as the question has been raised, I can offer the following additional information.

The particular forum software that we use does allow for the definitions of the various 'levels' of members to be chosen by the administrator(s).

In the case of our Coffee Shop forum, the following thresholds were selected (probably when this all started, back in 2007):

Newbie = 0 posts;
Jr. Member = 10 posts;
Full Member = 30 posts;
Sr. Member = 100 posts;
Hero Member = 300 posts.

Hope this helps!  :D

However just to emphasise it is quality not quantity of posts we can move the goalposts if need be.
