Does becoming a Demi before 6502a status give you instant avatar privileges?

[Captain Awesome]

It is a place where....

• there are no dead pixels
• MBP's have matte displays
• no loose hinges or battery covers
• Firefox and Safari coexist in harmony
• there really are no viruses
• repairing permissions really does something
• and Apple Care covers accidental and deliberate damage

if what you say is true MacDawg then would it not be correct to state this

How do user titles work?
User titles are based on post counts:

Newbie => 0 - 29 posts
Member => 30 posts
Regular => 100 posts (minimum required to post in the Politics, Religion, Social Issues forum)
6502 => 250 posts (minimum required for access to the Marketplace forum)
6502a => 500 posts (minimum required to have an avatar)
65816 => 1,000 posts
65832 => 1,500 posts
68000 => 1,505 posts
68010 => 2,000 posts
68020 => 2,005 posts
68030 => 2,500 posts
68040 => 3,000 posts
601 => 5,000 posts
603 => 10,000 posts
604 => 15,000 posts
G3 => 20,000 posts
G4 => 25,000 posts
G5 => 30,000 posts
etc....
Demi-Goddess, Demi-God or Contributor => Member who has contributed to the site and has chosen to use one of those three titles.
(Moderator) suffix => Member who is also a moderator
(Moderator emeritus) suffix => Member who is a former moderator
macrumors god => administrator

Which puts Demis above 6502a which means that the avatar would be activated since the person who pays to be a demi is above 6502a?

Demi status is not related to post count, it's related to whether you've donated to MR. Thus being a demi has nothing to do with reaching the 500 post threshold which is required to have an avatar.

Trust me
An avatar cannot be bought... period
Nothing will supersede the post requirement except winning a contest

They're not above, they're different. Avatars are still based on post count.

 

[EX1127]

Ok haha please don't bash i was just curious.
it just sounded like a contradiction.

 

[TheMacBookPro]

Off topic but who here is a MacRumors G5? I've always wanted to know Assuming no one since if YOU had 30000 would you donate? Either that or he/she'd become a mod...

Demi's don't have to use a Demi title

mad jew is the only 30,000+ user at this point
Although mkrishan is approaching that level at over 25,000

Well at least I would if I donated

Thanks

EDIT: It looks like mad jew is a mod and mkrishnan is a mod too, so there's nobody with a 'macrumors G3/G4/G5' tag.

Yes, if they chose not to have a Demi title displayed, they would have the standard listings

The highest "listed" value is Eidorian at G3
There are two 604's wdlove and raggedimmi

However, there are lots of Demis and Mods that qualify for these titles

So just wondering what would yours be if you had the normal listing?

Fix'd that for you.

Also think of the Private forums as the following, you can see them, but they are in reality no existent. It's like saying Big Foot/Sasquash or Aliens exist.

Also, there is no MacRumors conspiracy.

I, personally, like to call it, The-Place-That-Must-Not-Be-Named.

An avatar cannot be bought; simply put, the avatar is a reward for contributing to the community, not for donating to the community…

And please don't spam.

But that being said, please do donate to the community, it helps keep things running smoothly

 

[IBradMac]

Just curious. I would definitely do it if I had a credit card

Having the name captain awesome should automatically qualify you as a god.

Wow, just discovered I am too. I gotta slow down, soon.

Having the name captain awesome should automatically qualify you as a god.

It should qualify you to have your money refused, but that's just me.

Contributing is a subjective term. I'd know.
