Hey guys, I was thinking of maybe updating the names that are associated to how many posts you have and I wanted to throw this out there to you all. Check out the list below and let me know your thoughts of how you might structure the top 10. Let's say for 0 to 100 posts, 100 to 500, 501 to 1000, 1001 to 1500, 1501 - 2000, 2001 to 2500, 2501 to 3000, 3001 to 4000, 4001 to 5000, 5001 to 10000, etc. How would you do it? If you think the thresholds should be different, let me know there too. I'll consider all feedback and then make a decision.

You probably have a bunch with less than 100 posts (non-regulars) and a large bunch in 500-1000 (those of us who've been on for a year or more). Over 2000 posts is less common.
Maybe 0-50; 51-250; 251-750; 751-1500; 1501-2500; 2501-4000; 4001-6000?

Yeah, there are a lot with less than 100. We may even need more divisions than you or I suggested, especially within that 500-1000 range as you noted.. Maybe using famous golfer names is not the right way to approach it either. I want the naming to be somewhat meaningful, but fun too... thanks for your feedback Aimee!

Maybe rank some of the tournaments and then use something along those lines.

Like 100 post is a PGA Champion
200 would be a US Open
300 British Open
400 Masters (or Green Jacket)
1000 as Grand Slam Winner
50 Posts maybe TPC
75 Ryder Cup
800 FedEx Cup

10 Posts Buick Champ.

Something along those lines.

Let me look at some info tomorrow, maybe tonight, about different tournaments and their longevity and prestige.

I guess it would be easier to figure out how to name the divisions if we knew how many divisions there will be...

Maybe no "name" until you reach 100 posts?
Then 100-250; 250-500; 500-750...and so on
When you run out of names, if someone hits a gazillion posts, you just call them Master of the Universe!

I like Weekend Duffer for < 100 posts \:\)

I would say after a point, it probably doesn't matter if you keep posting in terms of being rewarded with a new label. So I'd simplify it and go with the something like Aimee suggested.

I think the whole thing is kind of hokey, and the ratings too. I'd consider getting rid of those, and just leaving the number of posts.
