I wouldn't trust the Demi-God title as being indicative of the user's experience. I've run into quite a few newbie Demi-Gods.

mr should have the title like this for the user by default


say 603-DG or 603-DemiGod so you know what the demi gods "status" is if you know what i mean


anyone have thoughts on this?
 
Im sure you could find a 603 with not much knowledge either, doesn't matter if they are a Demi or not. A person either knows or they don't.

We have a guy labeled President, it doesn't mean anything.

You're clearly talking about yourself aren't you?

Just call me prez.
All I'm saying is that we have smart newbies and some older members that might not have a knowledge on a topic. Doesn't mean we should discredit them based on title. Is it that hard to look at a post count and see that a Demi might have 50 posts.

You don't want to be labeled as the prez. Not exactly a high honor. :p

No, I agree with what you're saying. A title doesn't dictate how much a person knows.
 
Is it true that you get added benefits of a Demi but aren't supposed to say? Its a secret society isnt it? Or not so secret? :)

But I understand there is/are access to another forum for Demis.

This question may have already been asked, but I could not find an answer.

I understand that MacRumors forum users are "promoted" (Demi-God, Member, Regular, Newbie, etc.) by the number of total posts that they make.

How come some users are listed as Demi-Gods, but have only recently joined the forums and have minimal postings?

Do some people pay money to MacRumors to become Demi-Gods without posting?

Thanks in advance.

The only reply to this that makes any sense and sticks to thread is:

Please read first paragraph of MacRumors FAQ in forum heading.

End of flippin' story.

I should point out that these benefits are clearly mentioned in the FAQs.

Maybe all we really need is a 400 x 1200 pixel banner to link to the FAQs.

Does anyone else find this line in Blue Velvets post funny or is just my strange sense of humour?

Personally, I have no idea why I was invited to become a moderator, but the why doesn't interest me. What interests me is what I can do with the tools I've been given.

Miss her witty posts..

I think if BV was still riding herd, this thread would have been answered "read the FAQ" to OP and been wastelanded long ago.
 
I don't like my posts being deleted (as long as I'm following forum rules,) without a courtesy PM as to why.
 
Are you sure you pressed "Enter".

No, seriously, not trying to be smart. I have had quite a few tabs open, and have screwed-up once in a while.

You could try it again, and see if a lynching party forms.
