is a veteran some one that was here for more than 2 years, or some one with experience and a skill?

It doesn't have to do a ton with building skill because I'm pretty sure Robo, Nar and all them build better than I do and I was a veteran before I was a mod.

Well I've had RA2 since 2004 so I should be a vet!

Does it really matter though? I mean... its not like you get frequent flier miles or discounts at Denny's for being labeled an Advanced User or Veteran. Personally, I am more of a fan of the unique tags that have been given out over the years "Spamweight, Cheeseweight, etc etc." I find those amusing and more meaningful.

Besides... there is only appx 30 of us on the forum that are here regularly... if half of them are labeled AU or Vet... the other half know better. This place is not flooding with noobs that are going to be all starry-eyed over a members title.

Just my opinion... sorry if it offends anyone. I am cranky from working three 14 hour workdays in a row... *grrrrrr*.

JD should be an AU too. :P

As JD said, does it really matter?

Veteran status, at least in the old days, had nothing to do with how long you've been here. It's reserved for those who are the most well respected within the community.

kill343gs · « **Reply #169 on:** November 12, 2009, 10:08:52 PM »

Which is usually, but not necessarily, derived from how long you've been around.

I enjoy being a AU but that is because people came forward and said I should be one :-D just support from others is the nice feeling not the orange writing :-D

Kraft, an American company, is trying to buy out Cadbury, the largest chocolate manufacturer in England. It appears some people are unhappy with this.

Aw, crap. I am sorry to hear that. I certainly hope that it does not put anyone out of the job.

bump

Same here.

They likely wouldn't change. When Kraft bought out Post, Honey Bunches of Oats remained delicious.

I should be labelled Veteran because I was on the old forums (until I forgot my password lol).

Also, why can't I get a Custom Title? Waaahh...

JoeBlo · « **Reply #178 on:** February 14, 2010, 08:12:21 AM »

show an excessive love of cheese :P (I remember that being said before when someone asked for a custom title a while ago) or spam

Seeing ACAMS' original post, I'd like to suggest that

Phlox, Mr Apocalypse, MikeNCR and Firebeetle are made veterans, and Duck and MNB are made AU's.

I agree but MNB should get vet status too as should CFlv

*facepalm* I don't believe I forgot about Cherry!
