"Original Poster" Status
Discussion
Chaps,
Something I have just noticed, i now have "original poster" next to my name on posts, how does one achieve this status?
I thought it would be based on length of posting, IE 12 months plus for example but I have only been actively posting for 9 months,
Can someone advise to end my curiosity?

Dear lord, I'm surprised this hasn't been picked up on yet!It counts how many posts you've made. I know - tough when you're not a computer geek eh?
Best of luck getting to work.

Can I make a suggestion that if a forum member does something to achieve 'legendary status' then they have a special title under their name (like Garlick has 'PH Manager Bloke').
For example 'Original Poster' (as he is now known) could retain his original name but have:
Chris_OCR
474 posts
9 months
'Original Poster'
We could do the same for the Ambiwlans OP, he could have something like 'Ambiwlans Chaser'?
'330D Remapper'? And so on...
The status should be used sparingly and only in exception circumstances, either to mock or to reward for 'services to PH'

Mr Original Poster, the thing is you aren't, aren't an original poster that is.
You've only been here for 9 months and so don't even have access to the private forum for the original forum posters that where here back in the day i.e. those who have been around for 100+ months.
Not quite sure what you want me to say? Sorry perhaps?! You've only been here for 9 months and so don't even have access to the private forum for the original forum posters that where here back in the day i.e. those who have been around for 100+ months.
