I hate the ones they have here and way back when we started the board Jack and Chris were supposed to come up with new ones...they didnt so I'm asking again. Here is a list of the current ones:
Administrator
Global Moderator
Moderator
New Member
Junior Member
Full Member
Senior Member
God
How boring does it get. I personally think "Administrator" should be changed to "God" but thats just me. ;D
So lets here your suggestions. I'm thinking they should be more lifting related but I'll do whatever you guys want. So get thinking, I know darn well that you are all creative!

I was wondering about the number of stars.

You know I've never paid much attention to the stars but they obviously correlate to the number of posts you have. I just dont like the titles. Ryan is a "senior member" makes him sound like an old man. It should be something more lifting related.
I like "Gym Rat" instead of New Member but cant come up with anything for the rest.
I'm just avoiding real work fish. Actually I was down in my studio for over two hours and came up so I could get feeling back in my fingers, toes and nose.

Well, one can always use the training techniques in the sport as designations
Let's see, that would be
dead
dip
bent legged
jerk
On second thought, maybe not

Ok here is what I have. I'll go with these and if anyone comes up with something better I'll change it.
New Member - Rookie
Junior Member - Gym Rat
Full Member - Junior
Senior Member - Elite
God - Master
Or would elite and master be switched around??? Not sure which is considered higher.

Well Jack wasnt thrilled with what I picked so they may be changing again. I used to be a memeber of a PL board and the first designation was Pencil neck. Everyone hated it. The guys there were wonderful but way over my head so the only way to get my 25 posts and get rid of the darn Pencil neck was to workout and post it...didnt miss one workout until I got rid of that thing.  I'm not fond of gym rat either but its all the creative I get. So much for being an artist huh. |

I like Rookie instead of pencil neck.
I think gym rat is pretty good, atleast it is funny.
IN terms of lifting that is wha thappens, you dont know what you are doing ROOKIE, so then eventually you get it in your head to live at the gym, hence gym rat.
After that, I am not so sure, I liked Elite although it seems that should correspond to 4 stars which is me (and im not elite) but it shows up as MASTER.
The one that seems to be weird is "junior", I will ponder.

Well Ryan I would much rather go for funny than serious but I workout at home so the only gym lingo I'm exposed to is, well....damn bar...damn dumbbell....damn plate...where the heck did that damn bench come from. All of course coming out after I drop, trip over or run into one of them.
I like Elite too but Jack said Master should come before Elite so I switched. I dont like Junior either. Hoping you guys are a whole lot more creative than I am.

Ok close your eyes and click your heels together 3 times and say "I will never give up, I will never give up", then spin around twice, bend down touch your toes, stand up do 20 jumping jacks, grab some dumbbells and curl, curl, squat squat, push, pull, run, jog, walk, climb..and before you know you'll be there. ;D Smoke I'd make you weigh anything you wanted if I could....well first I'd do me...just in case it only worked once.  We'll get there.....I'm not sure of much I do know we are going to have that damn party! |
