VinceC Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 My Blog ranking is a Newbie as I have only made a few posts. How does the progression work for ranking promotions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovetocruise2002 Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 Not sure if anyone really has an answer to that or is keeping track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLMoran Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 I think you have Newbie rank until you've made around 50 posts. Then you get rank 2 (I forget that's called) until around 250 or maybe 500 posts, at which point you hit the top rank (Master?). Any unusual titles you see, like "Oasis Class Denier", "Stubborn Canadian Scorpio", "Kraken Absconder", "Grandeur Poobah", or "Wants to be the Next Michael Poole" are all honorary titles given by @Matt to frequent posters who've become well known here.

Honestly, I think it might just be Newbie and Advance Member. There definitely isn't a "Master"...I'm still laughing! I even checked @WAAAYTOOO's and @tiny260's ranking to make sure.

bhageerah Posted December 28, 2018 Report Share Posted December 28, 2018 Oh how I would love to be a Diamond with the Crown and Anchor! Currently we are at Platinum and with our cruise in March we will be at Emerald. Hopefully we will be breaking the Diamond level by the end of the year.
