I'm starting this thread for all the long time SAAC forum members who are tired of seeing "newbie" below their avatar. I used to be a "Hero Member" or something like that but now I'm referred to as a "newbie". I AM NOT AN ANIMAL!!!!!! :o
So this thread lets you make useless posts in order to up your ranking and thus remove the "newbie" label.
Have at er boys. Raise your status!!
QSS
I'm not a "newbie"

I am not a "newbie"

Oh look......squirrel!!!!!

Damn....... still a "newbie".

The latest documentation I can find is the stats from June of 2017...it shows the top ten posting contributors....we should restore those people to their rightful places....I am not sure how you could document the others....
There really should be some acknowledgement for those that have been around for years and years instead of just starting everyone over in my opinion
What's in a name? Would a rose by any other name smell less sweet?
What if they called it a stink weed? Would everyone think that the smell of a rose stinkweed was unpleasant?
:) Think of it this way... Your a young "buck" eager to learn which is where we all should be. Never stop and always be a "Newbie", when you don't, you get old and dead!
where is the eleanor section of this forum?

Fosho
I think I had 8900 posts
I think Pete had about 10,000
Bob had 11-12k
Phil had 8-9k
Probably right....if we cant recognize 10 years of contributions, then we get a bunch of newbies.

14 K something at time of melt down but who is counting ;D .
Hey, at least you're a "Full Member", Bob. Only 13,900 posts to go!
Trust me - I have more than enough ignorant questions for you to answer - you'll be back up to at least 1,000 by next week! ;D
And, NO ONE is catching FL SAAC TONY - he's already over 250!!! Personally, I think he's cheating. 8)

R U going to restore CaptDave too? :o
I try and think of myself as "nimble" not "newbie
I miss the stars. Weren't those based on when you signed up on the site? or became a member? It wasn't related to amount of posts I know that-
Funny how if someone came up to any of you and mistook you for being under 21 years old at a bar, you would be completely flattered. Yet we're 'offended' by the Newbie status? I would think people like Bob, Vern, Pete, Jeff, JD, Jim, etc, really wouldn't be too concerned. Anyone is anyone already knows you guys are 'da man' in this hobby!
I'm much more concerned with where the popcorn emoji went?
(click on it it, it still works!)
Hmmmm, I had thought that it seemed kinda funny to go from "Hero" [member] to "Zero" [newbie]- now I see that I was not the only one ::)

When the young lady at Hooter's said I had to show ID, I told her she could just bring me water, if she persisted.
Beer was promptly served. Hey, where's the beer emoji?
As an actual 'Newbie' from the pre-crash site, I'm not feeling too bad about my bottom rung status on this new site but I can understand how those of you who have been around a while might feel slighted by that title. But there is good news! As I recall I had 30-40 posts on the last forum and I was still a Newbie. It appears that you attain Jr. Member status after only 20 posts on the new forum so not only does the site run quicker, you're promoted quicker too!
And now I'm one post closer....
I'm trying to get off of newbie status my self . I'm troubled with jr and full member though. Is Viagra the difference?
Well I wasn't a mega poster but I joined I think within a few hours of the creation of the forum... Whatever status I had is now gone. I feel diminished!

I'm a newbie here, because the old forum crashed. I'm not a newbie when it comes to Shelby autos, having owned 6S550 for more than 50 years. I've been a Shelby fan longer than that. Ron
Shouldn't that be spelled newbee? What's a new by? Is that like a ute?
This just my newbie reduction post. Moving on....
This is actually a funny post....

I don't mind being considered a newbie as long as I don't lose my senior discounts at the market.
Looks like I've reached puberty . I'm a jr member now.
In regards to the title of this thread or post. All the regular posters and "informed SME's" (subject matter experts) are already known. The Bob Gaines, gt350hr (Randy Gillis) Coralsnake (Pete Disher) acman63, rr64, Jeff Speegle, tlea and many many more. With previous posts 1000+ to well beyond 10k+ are acknowledged without having to say who they are on the New forum.
Everyone has a certain writing style from shelbydoug, myself, Bigfoot and vernestes.
My recommendation is just continue doing what you normally do and not worry. Have you ever noticed at the bottom as to who is on? Guests vs Users? The percentage of guests is normally 3 to 5 times+ more.
All the regular forum members are already known! When I ask, who is in charge or the moderator of the day to day posts regarding "parts for Sale"? You know who that is. Without saying, he'll delete your comments (i mean that in a good way) on a for sale thread.
And yeah... I'm now a newbie too.

So what is the "oldies" level that some want to achieve again?
We are all "Newbies"
Well, I've never heard of a General attempting to hide in the ranks as an enlisted man but I have heard stories about Lt.Col's and Col's doing so.
It is kind of dangerous because the working soldiers view them as incompetents since they have forgotten the short cuts involved in the basics and tend to stand out?
I think that there is a little of that going on here? The draft dodgers who couldn't get away, currently working on buck private don't know what they don't know so everyone in their eyes is FUBAR?
I want my sidearm back.
At this point I think that I'm just wishin' to be nubile (like Steve said) ::) instead of a newbie
I am not a newbie!
Well, actually, maybe I am. I've been a member for several years, but haven't felt a need to post. Just soaking up the knowledge and basking in the glow of all things Shelby.
Does that make me a Lurkie?

She's European. I think she just spells it with an accent? I'm not sure? We never get to talk otherwise I'd ask her? I never get passed the V. :)

80 degrees in Feb...I might have to retire to Florida. I don't know how your group gets to all of the events you post, but at least you always have a options to get out and enjoy your cars, and meet other Shelby enthusiasts. Nice!
Thought I'd post just to see how many I do have.

ah yes...who can forget the theatrical masterpiece hollywood knights. the most stunning and melodic song ever sung on the cinematic screen.... it went :

Jeez, now I'm quoting myself.
The cool part about the Bullwinkle show (Alumnus of WhatsamattaU) was that there was kid humor and adult humor.
As a kid I laughed at one set of jokes.
As a teen, there was another set.
But the true star -- besides the genius of Jay Ward -- was June Foray.
It's said that "She's not the female version of Mel Blanc -- Mel Blanc is the male version of June Foray."
Besides Rocky, Natasia and Nell she did almost every voice in the industry from Cinderella (as the Cat) onwards:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_Foray#Filmography
... and it's snowing here.

From what I understand, no. There wasn't any point in keeping track of who used to be a member back then. Membership lists were just updated periodically and basically used for mailing out the newsletter/magazine.
If you expired, you didn't get one 'cause you weren't on the list anymore.
As a matter of fact it might be that it took 30 years before Rick figured something might be going on? OK, OK...maybe 25 years? :)

Do the SAAC membership lists exist from 1975 onwards?
From what I understand, no. There wasn't any point in keeping track of who used to be a member back then. Membership lists were just updated periodically and basically used for mailing out the newsletter/magazine.
If you expired, you didn't get one 'cause you weren't on the list anymore.
As a matter of fact it might be that it took 30 years before Rick figured something might be going on? OK, OK...maybe 25 years? :)
I think he figured out right away what it felt like to be babysitting a bunch of misfits. His stint as a continuation high school teacher probably helped.
He figured it out, but he wouldn't tell. ;)

That's the way to run up those posts and leave that"newbie" label in the distant past ;)

The picnic people called and they r missing their tablecloth.
Hey that's my Dad's old shirt and he's 81...
But, I actually am a Newbie :)

He wasn't sure. It didn't look right all in caps. He was OK with TOP though? That was before spell checks.
I am SOOOO excited! I am getting close to a "Jr. Member"!
Steve
I actually did need to ask some questions and got out of my Newbie Status a bit too early :)

Bob had 11-12k
That's someone with way to much time on their hands.
Back to zip also.
Lost more than 10 years being registered also after looking at profile.
I'm heading toward "full" member which at my age is scary.
hmmm.... what count is the next threshold? ???
I hope it's 100. (it was)
Thanks Randy.
Now on to the next level (at least for you 8))
Was senior
It's late and I've had a few cocktails!!!!! I am not a "Newbie" but I am also not a "jr member" >:(.

I am not a "jr. member".

I can't wait for SAAC 43.
QSS
Any body up early on the East Coast?
QSS
OK, I'l give it a rest now.
I'm a little close to "Senior member".
QSS
It's freaking pouring rain here.
Seriously, no more posts. "Senior member" will happen soon...... I can feel it 8)
QSS
I'm up and have been shoveling 'spring snow'.
I am not a newbie either. Same handle as before. Guess we were all born again virgins...but know now what we didn't know then.

How's your Spanish?
Si' No comprende' senor'
I have no plans to ever go south of the border, so no plans to learn Spanish. Unfortunately I am in construction and its getting very difficult to communicate.

Love it! ;D
Just hit full member status, "I used to be a Shelby Boy, I am now a Shelby Man, These pipes are clean"
I can't believe I had 5353 posts on the old version. I'll be a senior one of these days. I want to get out of "blue pill" status.
It's taking a little longer than I thought to graduate from "junior"... I thought that this thread had died on the vine, glad to enjoy some more banter ;D
Still working my way up the ladder. Not in any rush, just appreciate the opportunity to post now and then.
This thread ain't dead yet?
So long as there are newbies, this thread will live in infamy! ;D
BTW - it's a good thing they don't determine "newbie" status based on what you actually know. If that was the case, I'd be "infant to 6 months".
channel 17 is running a mayberry r.f.d. marathon!
Trouble with that show is that is in fictional Mayberry, North Carolina, the not in the real Shelby, North Carolina. ;)
