its sort of a ranknging system, teh more u posts u have the more bars, if you ahve 1-7 ur ranking is stock, then you get from 8-50 ricer. then from 51-250 u ahve turbocharged, thenu got other crap i dont remember them, they only represent the number of posts, and all mods have all 7 squares

Your avatar status depends on how many posts you have made.
I dont know exactly how many posts you need to gain status, but it becomes more and more each time.

Mods/Admins have 7 squares because they run the site.

Not true mate... UrQuattro has 6 (unbeattable) squares lit, and he's a moderator in the UMP section. ;)

I doubt so, because only mods can reach up to 7 squares. AND I don't even think that the red squares will even be lit if you have 10,000+ posts...

nope only Admins (and some moderators) get the full 7 by posting you can only reach 6 wich is unbeateble!

Urq is a mod but with limitations to what he can moderate. he can only moderate the UMP and nothing more... he simply can't do anything extra on the main forum....
Bojan, Superracer and I have full options.... = ADMIN
(sorry if I missed a staff member)

YES youu did Stig, Sp3ak is also an Admin. He bans people, remember? You also forgot about viper_gts, GT3x24x7 & Abrams...

BTW, are GT3x24x7, viper_gts, Abrams and T-Shine Moderators or Administrators? Just curious...


[color=orange]*EDIT: Sp3ak isn't an admin anymore? Above the squares, it only says UMP Owner, and he only has 6 squares lit instead of the usual 7.. Does that mean he isn't a mod in other forums other than UMP?[/color]

Well. I thought of the ricer tag as an insult to me actually.
Didn't like one bit.
Good thing I got the Turbo Charged now though ;)
Would prefer Turbo Charged RX-7 ;) or
Turbo Charged Rotary

Speak isn't a ADMIN anymore! he is no longer a staff member for NFS unlimited!

SPEAK is only "owner" of the UMP site.

think you should know he is no longer staff: reason: think you know :wink:

T-Shine is a Moderator (Green color)
Viper_gts is a Admin (recently reinstalled)
GT3x24x7 is Admin but is not active now
Abrams... (don't know if he has full access.... he normally is here for the news...)
MikeFarrer is a moderator (green color)

And I'm a fake moderator and tend to scare people off.>=)

Someone messaged me once on another forum saying: Can you change my forumname?

WHAT THE HELL? I'm not even a mod. :lol:

Hmm, I think we should give you the position of the "guy who denies people's never-ending requests for username changes..."

GT and I both where the big post whores... :P
but lately most of my posts are moderating...(true!) and I don't post on every topic anymore as I did with the postwhoring times with GT :D

GT isn't active at this time so logically he isn't posting!

I only post if I really like the topic or if it needs moderating
