"Newbie" user title?

[jvencius]

Is there a certain post count when I'll lose the "newbie" user title? I don't really mind it, since I am most definitely a newb (supposing that the IIGS I used in 3rd grade/1985 doesn't count for relevant Mac experience) but I'm curious when/if it'll change automatically.

Seems you lost it already

 

[OwlsAndApples]

You have already

Edit: Too slow...

you seem to have reached the post count for it to change, but you could have looked in the FAQ and found out about that earlier.

Have you tried visiting the FAQ recently?

it's not like it's difficult - click the "Guides" tab on the top right of the page, then "MacRumors.com" in the middle of the window. From there you can see links to the FAQ and forum rules:

To be fair to the guy, I think the FAQs location is unintuitive. A lot of sites have an FAQ link somewhere on their main/front page, since that's often what a new user wants most.

To be even fairer, the FAQ link at the top of this page has been broken for ages.

Make that past tense. They do work again.
