I just noticed I am still a forum newbie. I have been a member over three years now. I guess I need to get busy and start contributing.

^^^^^^ correct answer!
the different user titles change at 100, 500, 1000, and 5244 posts.

Yes, that user title is the Full Monte. Monte was a member that always had a kind word to type. He made exactly 5244 posts prior to his untimely death. At that time he was one of our top posters, IIRC the top poster. He was nicknamed "forum windbag" which he gladly accepted as an endearing title. He was one of the most wonderful humans ever to walk this land. A kinder man I've never met. Many of us miss him dearly; may he rest in peace.
