"Original Poster" Status

[Chris_OCR]

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?

I don't understand! How come I don't have it next to my name!

And what happens when you reply to a thread that you didn't start?

Chris,

It simply means you've started a topic where the combination of words in your title are unique and have never been used before.

It's quite something that you've managed it so often!

Yes... You did do it. There is nothing you can do now apart from prepare yourself for another possible "ambiwlans" thread. Good Luck OP.

Another thing you'll learn is to delete a numpty thread asap before it's quoted!

Bless you for making me chuckle.
