Looks to me like it's 100 posts.

I was wondering that myself. I'm getting tired of being a "newbie" (although judging from the quality of my work...)

I'm probably wrong (again!), but since you have a custom avatar you must be a patron. I 'think' patron status allows you to change the heading under your user name. Did for me, anyway.

Are the state flags custom? I thought they were added to the database from which anyone could choose. Patron definately lets you change your "status" thingy. I do it all the time because all of mine are stupid. Hey maybe I could Forum Newbie on mine just to confuse the Newbs. Lol. Kidding.

I could be wrong as well, but I just kind of remember reading that from Sam when the conversion to vBulletin was made.

You can go to USER CONTROL PANEL | EDIT AVATAR to select a state flag. I guess you're out of luck if you're a Canadian newbie.
