How do you become a member?

[steeleclipse]

My question is simple... How do you become a member or a regular??? I have been posting longer than some, and it leaves me quite curious...

macrumors.com is my fave mac info site, and one of the reasons is everything is so easy to find. Maybe I am looking in the wrong place, but i havent found anything talking about membership.

I am sick of being a newbie :)

Thanks for your help.

Honestly, I am not posting this time to increase my count. Sorry guys, I did not know this was the case. I was just kidding around.

don't worry about it. this has had a lot of negative opinion lately, everyone gets yelled at :)

i've always found that if you really look around the forum, there's a lot of subjects to offer opinions to.

like this one :D

i just bought demi-god status, so my post count doesn't matter anymore. you might look into it... it's a good cause...

How should one go about buying Demi-God status?

I always thought you Demi-god guys were moderators!

Congrats, maybe I'll be a Demi-Goddess someday, I'm right behind jef on being the top poster who hasn't contributed yet.http://forums.macrumors.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=251202

If one wants to donate, how and where is it done? I found the store site, but saw nothing about donations.

hmm...yeah...we were on jef for a while...

but have given up I feel...he's not gonna budge...

even though he said he'd join at his anniversary... ;)

I was just looking at the top posters list, and I saw that AlphaTech's name was on there. What happened to him? Did he "retire" from MacRumors.

So like, quality of a post is considered or not? 30 posts is all that's required to "graduate" to member/regular?

I used to be the number 1# poster who hasn't contributed, well I'm sure I was. :)

No. The content of your post has nothing to do with it.

Quality over quantity is a concept that I'm sure alot of people here share similar views on.

Official MacRumors Mug (http://www.cafeshops.com/cp/prod.aspx?p=macrumors,macgiftshopa.1925945) - Note the FAQ page. :)

MUG and donation system will be reannounced soon. Basically, the MUG is outdated, but I haven't had a chance to update it.

I'll post details (hopefully) soonish.

That's good. I didn't want a second mug identical to the first one, and i've a feeling it's coming up to paying time again.

Could always just go for a macrumors thong though, eh? ;)
