Question about Forums

what do all these "ranks" mean under our username and how does one achieve different ranks, i dont see a thread for it anywhere unless i missed it (it is late at night sorry!)

 

The ranks are given dependent on the number of postings achieved

* Private E-2 = 0 - 29 posts
* Private First Class = 30 - 99 posts
* Senior Member = 100 - 199 posts
* Corporal = 200 - 299 posts
* Specialist = 300 - 399 posts
* Sergeant = 400 - 499 posts
* Staff Sergeant = 500 - 599 posts
* Master Sergeant = 600 - 699 posts
* First Sergeant = 700 - 799 posts
* Sergeant Major = 800 - 899 posts
* Command Sergeant Major = 900 - 999 posts
* Major Geek = 1000+ posts

 

Plus there are unique titles that a few chosen people get, like mine.
