    I have 141 posts and I'm still a junior member. I see others with less posts and there members? Just curious. Satin

    I'm starting to think I have to get multiple tattoos and a primered '66 Impala to get upgraded. Your guess is as good as mine.

    dude does it seriously really matter?
    the hamb is for talking about cars, not about your status, be happy you are here

    I'm not one to hang around where I'm not wanted. For all I know that's the message I'm getting. Just like to know, that's all.

    Consider it one of those things that just happens when the time is right.I think the threshold has been raised,anyone with fewer posts may have been elevated to member status before the change was made.If you have more than a couple dozen posts,nobody worries about it too much.The guy with 5 posts and a bad attitude will get the attention he deserves.

    shot in the dark, but i think it has to do with the amount of times you post + number of messages clicked on to read...

    try this, go to every post and click on it, see if that raises the bar... i just reged not long ago and have member status, but the hamb is always up on my machine at work and im always digging around somewhere.. so, this has nothing to do with you as a person, blame it on UBB message boards [​IMG]

    I think the point is when you go to FAQ it lists status's that isnt even correct nowdays. Was just a question. Satin

    hey satin...i just noticed my status turned to enthusiast, usually got the HAMB up at work 24/7, or at least 90% if the week its up... i have a feeling its gotta do with either the cumilitive hrs you have been logged into the board, or, how many posts you have clicked... i think its more on the lines of cumilitive hrs..

    Amen to that brother,Over the past week my wife is constantly thinking I'm surfing for porn (not a bad thing!)
    Truth is the HAMB is very addictive....great info, very entertaining and real good people.
