When you reach 1,000 posts, you can create your own rank.

Lots of people seem to ask this, I remember two other threads with the same topic, just in the short time I have been a member.

Perhaps the ranks should be explained when one first creats an account.

Oh no it isn't random. I goes like this:

Emu Egg - 0
Butterfly - 9
Hummingbird - 18
Tufted Titmouse - 25
Yellow-bellied Woodpecker - 50
Blue Jay - 75
Raven - 100
Snowy Owl - 125
Pileated woodpecker - 175
Sea Gull - 200
Tucan - 250
Deinonychus - 300
Velociraptor - 400
Phoenix - 500 - at 500 posts you also become a Veteran.
At 1000 posts you get to choose your own title.

I don't really miss any of the ranks, since I prefer my custom rank (which I can change when I want to).
