Thread: How do I stop being a junior member?

  1. #1

    Default How do I stop being a junior member?

    Is it a certain ammount of posts, or certain ammount of time being part of the org? I'm pretty sure I've seen other people with less posts than me that are members...

    Why don't you make a post about it?

    Just contact the administrator. You were probably just overlooked.

    Junior Members are in fact a very special class and include both the youngest member at 13 years young and the oldest member at 79 years old. So stop beefing and think how lucky you are to be part of such a select group-

    since you joined when the org is getting a lot of new members, you will have to wait a bit more.

    SSJVegetaTrunks: If you've been posting regularly and have been a good netizen (no bashing or spamming, etc.), then you should be made a full member pretty soon. Junior members generally get promoted in batches every few weeks or so.

    If you do feel you've been overlooked, feel free to take CrossLOPER's advice and PM one of the admins (Tosa, barocca, or Ser Clegane). Given how busy the Org is right now, however (due to Medieval 2 having just been released), promotions are probably just taking a little longer than usual. I know it's hard to be patient sometimes, but I honestly don't think you'll have very long to wait before you find yourself a full member.

    Oh, and welcome to the Org, btw!

    Just kidding

    Patience my friend, you'll be member soon enough.

    Btw, in my days Junior members were restricted to the Entrance Hall only. So what are you complaining about? Those spoiled Junior Members nowadays . Gah. They never experienced the real suffering when we were forced to obey the Camel Lord and only the Camel Lord.

    Bah, camels.

    All I know is that yesterday I was a Junior Member and today I am a Member. I don't know how it happened; it just did. The perks are unreal.

    Quite the contrary! I wouldn't mind if Junior Member was just an honorific, but the fact that basic forum tools like editing your own posts are denied to Junior Members can make using the forum awkward and frustrating. That and the massive forced-delay between posting times. I understand this is to stop new members spamming, but for people like myself who only have time to check the forum for a few minutes a day and can't wait for exorbitant periods of time to reply to maybe two or three threads it can be an incredible turn-off. The amount of times I've had helpful info to a question or an interesting point to make but have just neglected replying because I literally don't have "300 seconds" to wait before I'm allowed the post is pretty high.

    Really it's the incredibly restrictive posting options that irritate me and induce the impatience you might see amongst other people stuck in this membergroup. Even if the post-delay was brought down to something manageable like 30-60 seconds and the edit function was enabled, navigating the forums would became leaps and bounds more enjoyable and fluid. Perhaps it might be a good idea to make some changes to the system now, with a massive influx of new members changing the dynamics and environment of the Guild considerably from what was the status quo.

    We've already let go of the main restriction, junior members can now post in all the game forums.

    A massive influx is all the more reason to keep restrictions, it'll be a lot harder to keep track of all the new members.

    You've got it backwards Wizzie (welcome to the Org BTW ). Junior Members don't have edit tools because we assume you are perfect and competent. Those who prove they need such crutches as editing are demoted to Member. Alas, from the tone of you post, you will require demoting to Member to join the vast majority of patrons. I am too embarassed to tell you how pathetic one must be to be a Senior Member.

    Sorry for clowning around. I couldn't resist - I have this knack for looking at things from a different perspective. Fortunately, this time it didn't result is an awful pun.

    Well, I was going to drop in here and offer some great advice about some well-intended and friendly mod abuse and derogatory comments aimed at dromedary critters, but I've long since been beaten to the punch. Some help I am.

    In order for a Junior member to become a Member one must have the ability to grow hair on their chest and/or have enough facial hair to shave every other day. Whereas to become a senior member you must grow hair in the canals of your ears, enjoy being liver spotted, and forget the reason why you came here in the first place.

    Of course this doesn't apply to our female patrons.

    Hi

    Ive introduced good members of other RTW forums to this forum. They were respected members on other forums, at least equals to most here. Yet were restricted to junior membership. They drifted away. The membership division had a negative effect.

    Personally I dont like any distinction between members except post count, date joined, and reputation.
