    So I just noticed that I have graduated to that prestigious level of Senior Prius Poster. Wow... what a thrill!!

    Then I got to thinking, and then I got to panicking.

    I got up and looked in the mirror. No additional wrinkles, but there are a few more grays up there. My back and joints hurt more these days, but that started way before today. So I guess it's not a bad thing. I'm one of those who looks forward to the day I can join that honorable group of citizens we call Seniors (minus the aches and pains!). I just wasn't expecting it to be so soon.

    So does this mean the Rookie and Prius Posters have to look up to me now?

    :huh:



    Oh, and one more thing.

    Has anyone seen my keyfob?

    Naw. Now they just think that you're a know-it-all blowhard. :p :p :lol:

    Welcome to "the club". Of course, the true mark is when one of the admins hacks your label ala Bookrats, Bill Merchant, Jack06, TonyPSchaefer et al.

    Welcome to the club, old man!

    Time has a way of sneaking up on us like that, and as far as I can tell, seems to be accelerating.

    No, I haven't seen your keys. Have you seen my glasses? :D

    Well, the grey hair is very becoming, too. :)

    Sheesh, tripp has 366 posts and still just a senior poster. Shouldn't you have ascended to a new level by now?

    Congratulations on passing the exam. I thought the written exam was tough but the oral board was even worse, especially Bill Merchant's questions.

    You mean so it doesn't say "Senior?" I did that myself. Is that a perk? :)

    Congrats, BTW.

    But I already was a know-it-all blowhard.....

    :unsure:

    So if they hack my label, I wonder what it might say.

    Doggie-style?
    Driving Master Stewie?
    Gives Us Paws?

    I'll probably check in on the board later tonight and find some hilarious-yet-horrifying label.....

    Oh, God... what have I started?!?

    The depth of insight and, Maslow might say, self-actualization evidenced by this commentary is, in fact, the only prior condition required for ascendancy into that revered, cosmological status,

    Senior Prius Poster.

    Try going to My Controls then go to Edit Profile info. There should be a
    Custom member title spot at the top.

    But now you've got the credentials to prove it. :p

    Hmmm... Didn't see it there. Just the B-day location and IM handle info. Nothing about a custom message. B-Dogg, did you see what aaf709 is talking about. Jack, I noticed that you've been changing yours frequently. Looks like you've found it. When I first got on the forum I asked Bill Merchant about it. He said he didn't edit his. I assumed it was something one of the admin's could do. It wasn't for lack to looking. <_<

    What about DanMan32? His posted like 32 billion comments (OK, slight exaggeration) and he's still a "senior prius poster". Same with Wayne. I tell ya, there's no justice in this world! :p

    It's "custom member title"---upper right-hand corner box---after clicking "edit profile".

    The ability to customize your title may have something to do with getting a PriusChat membership. I did that a while ago (probably time for me to re-up!). Maybe one of the bennies is Customizing Your Title.

    Yeah, there needs to be a category between Moderator and Senior Prius Poster. (There is a Creator category, but His name is Danny. :) )

    As to DanMan32, I think "PriusChat Deity" would be appropriate.

    maybe you have to have a certain number of posts above 'senior' standing to make up your own title.

    hmm.

    You are now a Senior Poster, but are you a Prius Hacker? =-)
