The numbers start at 500 posts and above and represent a Mac Processor designation. The largest seen so far is the 68040, and that's jefhatfields. The 68040 was the last processor before the power macs and I'm guessing he's going to go to 601 when he gets to 4000 posts in a couple weeks.

You will be a newbie till you get 30 posts
You will be a member till you get 100 posts
You will be a regular till you get 500 posts

You can be a Demi-God if you contribute, at any time.

Ahh, wisdom you speak. Understand I do. I guess that it helps to read all of the fine print and "Important: Read before posting" posts. :)

One of MacRumors less enlightened moments. The whole story is only available in the Private Forums, but this should give the gist of it.
