Hi Jules,

The Newbie title signifies someone who has made less than 50 posts, and is slang for 'new person'.

Newbie     *     0     
Jr. Member    **    50    
Full Member    ***    100    
Sr. Member    ****    250    
Hero Member    *****    500    

As you have made 50 posts or more, you become a junior member!

The word Noob is used a lot in Gameing.
Calling somone a "Newbie" or "Noob" directly can easely be interpreted as an insult as it implies they are new and unskilled.

000.............050.............100.............150.............200.............250.............300.............350.... .........400.............450.............500

The groups can be changed, if you have some suggestions I'll entertain them!

Someone on another board mentioned 'fractartist' - which I liked.
