Guess I'm Dense but.......

[directdrive]

Hi, there: Guess I'm dense but I don't follow the "Nomad", "Tracker", "Forager" titles after people's names. Could I have an explanation? Just curious.......Thanks, Bruce

There's an explanation in this thread: http://www.bushcraftuk.com/community/showthread.php?t=1746

 

[Ahjno]

It's got to do with the number of posts you've made:
Bushcrafter: dunno, only Adi007 is one, IIRC (He's got alot to say)
Native: 1000+ posts
Settler: 500 posts
Nomad: 250 posts
Forager: 100 posts
Tenderfoot 50 posts
Member: 0-49posts (NOT to be confused with being a normal member or subscribed member: Full member / Contributing member).

Hope this helps mate!

Edit: Wenie, great minds work alike

Bushcrafter is anyone with over two thousand posts, there's a few people getting up there now...I'll have to create some more

You'll get banned for self incrimination spamming

So why does Tom Tom appear as a Native rather than a Bushcrafter?

And you too!

Good point, I need to sort out the secondary name that's there, there should only be the main title, in this case I'm admin and so it doesn't get over written, in Tomtom's he's a full member and that takes priority. It's been on the list for ages, just not a high enough priority to get me to sort it!

Hi Tony,

Just found this after wondering what it all meant. If the second name is redundant then how about making it user selectable/free text with titles like 'DIYer', 'armchair bushcrafter', 'pyromaniac', 'cook', 'blacksmith', 'living the dream', 'instructor', 'newbie', 'travel junkie', 'hiker' Etc. Just to give a little idea as to the mindset of the member?

Just an idea, and as you said above, I'm sure there's a long list of idea's already waiting!
