I've noticed on other equally cool websites that 'residents' have a status based on the # of their posts/involvement. Maybe GG could do the same thing?
Some sample titles & # of posts:
0-10 posts = noob/newb/FNG/greenie/guest
11-100 posts = squatter/kibitzer
101-500 posts = acolyte/novice
501-1000 posts = player/resident
1001-3000 posts = veteran/?
3001-5000 posts = Venerable/?
5001-????? posts = ?/?
??????-????? posts = ?/?
etc. etc.
Just a thought
