promotion?? I'm sure the answer to this question is on here somewhere but honestly I searched like mad...
But when do I get to stop being a boot and become something else?
I don't post a lot so I'm thinking it might be a while yet
sorry just to clarify I mean how many posts does a person make before they get a new name, not like how many days, months years etc will it be hehe

It's done by post count, and I forget, but I want to say it's not 50. (sorry) But don't worry about post count too much. Trust me, stay here long enough, and you'll get the "cred".
You could look at it on the other side, you're totally far away from Phaedra's post count, giving her the title of "I have no life".

Dude! What do you do, just cruise the forums, looking for a reference to yourself!?!
The title is apt. You have no life. But we love ya.

No, I visit the forums and read the new posts.

What you have are puppets. We won't discuss which kind

*snort*
Also cheese on a stick.
Not to mention a few little discussions of psychology , character and voice , folktales , religion , in-game vs. out-of-game morality , good and evil ...
Why is it that people only remember the vulva puppets?

"? ... !" is a reference to the Lockjaw character Moot, who only spoke in punctuation.

Thank you, Ozy.
But I don't remember anything special happening when I hit 750. Of course, I don't remember hitting 750, so if it only lasts for one post, I might have blown past it and never noticed....
But now I'm curious.
And no one's at 750. Of course, BriEnigma's at 749, so if I just watch him intently...
EDIT: Oh, wow! You all meant that literally!
