What does it take to be a Demi-God?

[mad jew]

I'm pretty sure people can contribute to MacRumors but retain their newbie/member/regular/processor title, if they like.

Nope, you still need 500+ posts to get an avatar.

Where can we see the stats on the numbers of posts we've made? Other forums that I post in actually list the number of posts under your name and avatar in every post.

Just click on your name, and on the menu that appears select view member profile and all shall be revealed. If a member has an avatar you can just click on that to go directly to their profile.

tis true!

I opted for the demi tag not because I wanted to show everyone that I'm a high roller but more as a lead-by-example method of tacitly encouraging others to contribute.

This site is awesome - tally the number of hours you spend here - the work of the staff makes our geeky lives more satisfying. Just like I am willing to pay more for a great user interface, I am willing to pay to support a great site run by great people.

I believe you have to be nominated by a conclave of Cardinals.

You are correct, mad jew. That's why I said

• A Demi-God, Demi-Goddess, or Contributor user title, if you want it

Some paid members have chosen that option, usually because they want to contribute "silently" or because they prefer their gradually advancing CPU title.

max_altitude answered that one. You can also click Quick Links -> My Profile at the top of any forum page.

I chose Contributor, simply because then it seems I'm the source of all the rumours

There's a difference between rumours and gossip, you know.

I still maintain that "Post Whore" should be the tag used for those preferring their gradually advancing CPU titles.

And innuendo, don't forget the innuendo.

Along those lines, new posters should be "Pre Whores".

The problem is most of the Demi's are the post whores.

Wow, you have even less per day than I do!

 

[MrSmith]

I don't care. At the end of the day we all look as silly in our pyjamas.

 

[SkyBell]

I always wondered what that forum page has on it.... But I don't like "Demi-Goddess" or "contributer" I like having a processor number.

Plus, I'm too cheap to pony up the dough.

 

[MrSmith]

And at 13 you presumably have better things to spend it on.

Speak for yourself - some of us have great pyjamas.

Presumably, but in actuallity, no.

 

[dllavaneras]

Once you get your Contributor/Demi title, can you revert to your processor title?

 

[philbeeney]

You wear pyjamas.

Commando is the way to go.

Yup, I think you just PM a MR God and they'll take care of it for you.
