Hi guys,
I'm really sorry, but I can't find the list with the mac rumors ranks anymore.
Is it gone from FAQ/Rules? That section seems redesigned to me, but maybe I'm just to stupid right now![]()
User titles are based on post counts:

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

The numbers come from the increasingly powerful microprocessors used in Apple computers over the years. The 6502 and 658xx are from the Apple II family, 680x0 were used in early Macintosh systems, 601 and beyond are PowerPC chips.
I've seen 'Macrumors Core' as a title... is there a secret list beyond the Gx tier, or has that article not been updated?
Cheers!

The article hasn't been updated.

When the list was revised, titles not listed were left off on purpose so members could either speculate what they would be and at what post level or to find out once obtained.
Yeah, but don't hold your breath on getting an autograph from SandboxGeneral or simsaladimbamba! They're WAY too important!Also, having lurked macrumors for years but only signed up recently, it's almost like meeting a celebrity to be replied to by users that I recognize. Weird. Thanks all!

Ah, it is always so sad when one's childhood heroes (and while I really liked Captain Kirk, I utterly revered Mr Spock, who was more than hero, but ranked as a role model) display such crude…….greed…...

Sooo... my curiosity has been piqued, and I've done some investigation and found a couple more secret titles.
If I were to start a thread documenting them, would it get closed due to you moderators' desire for secrecy?
Nope, I don't think we'd close it. Once someone attains the title, then its obviously public. There's no harm in speculating either. We kind of hoped someone would have put a list together of their theories so everyone could see how accurate it was once actual titles were earned. Sort of a fun guessing game.
