How do you get to be a senior?

I see under peoples names a title of sorts ... some are listed as Senior Member some are listed as just a Member and some perhaps as Junior Member and I think maybe someone was listed as "Who let this person in?"

How do you get these titles and what do they mean?

Just curious and thanks to whoever answers,

Tom

It's all about the number of posts. I'm not sure about the exact number, but believe the points are 50 posts for junior and 100 posts for senior.

And here I'd assumed it was a "wisdom of the elders" thing, and was giving far more credence to the posts of Senior Members.

it's all about the noise:
NO, not the number of posts;
If you make noise while standing up or sitting down, you ARE a senior.
(P.S. when using that imoticon, please sure you can get back up)

I thought of another answer. By blinking your eye. One minute you're 18, and in the blink of an eye you find yourself in your 60s (or 70s, etc)!

I don't know. One day I woke up and discovered I wasn't 18 any more.
