I notice that a couple of days ago I was promoted from a Rank 2 Registered User to a Rank 3 Registered User. I have absolutely no idea how this ranking system works, or what its all about, and would be grateful for someone to explain it to me.

I’d never noticed the ranks to be honest. Maybe I don’t have enough posts yet, only been on here 12 years;)
you must be above rank and us mere mortals and have been moved into a God like status 😀

Nice story.:) So how do you insert your written avatar in that place?

The only salute I get is either 1 or 2 fingers Paul.
The ‘up yours rigger’ was said to me by a sparky where I work – obviously paraphrasing a famous cowboy film quote 🙂
I am an airframe fitter/technician -the trade being AKA ‘Rigger’ in the RAF.
The engine guys were ‘Sooties’ or ‘Sumpies’…
The nicknames for electricians/fairies etc were often unrepeatable 😀

It is just on time registered as a user…you could be rank 5 with very few posts to your credit !

I notice you don’t have a rank shown, so do I salute you first or do you salute me? Provided you are wearing your hat or Beret.

I would love to know who I can look down on and up too as well:)
Rank does not bother me as long as I don’t end up in the glasshouse at Colchester:eek:

ive been promoted recently also in the same way but no medals yet for actions beyond the call of duty 😀

Probably on posts, but just guessing.
