| | | Thanking & Ranking 1. How do I thank posters?
2. Being a Brit and not used to the American educational system, can someone please explain the posters rank - e.g. freshman, junior etc. and how does one graduate from one to the other?
Many thanks!

| | | You get an icon to "thank" at the bottom right of every post, I believe that you have to post 15 times before this option becomes avaialble (but it could be 25).
I believe that graduation occcurs as you achieve a higher number of posts.

| | | I could see a thank you icon on your reply but I cannot see them on other posts. So it could be that this was because I started the thread that it appeared, and that you are right that I have not posted enough yet to be able to thank other posters.
It is just that I did not want to seem ungrateful!
Re: graduation - not sure that this is linked with the number of posts. Will keep my eyes peeled on the stats to see if this holds true. |

Re: graduation - not sure that this is linked with the number of posts. Will keep my eyes peeled on the stats to see if this holds true. | You become a sophomore at 500 posts, a junior at 1000, senior at 2000, etc.

| | The thought apparently being - if you reach the "upper echelons" and have not left or been banned, you have to be learning something!  |
