I noticed under the member name, there is a title and a pip association. What is this relationship?

The titles and pips change based on your number of posts at Mosaic Musings. The following hierarchy exists:

REVISED NOV 21 2003:

Nomad - 1 post - 1 pip
Babylonian - 50 posts - 1 pips
Assyrian - 150 posts - 2 pips
Egyptian - 300 posts - 2 pips
Greek - 500 posts - 3 pips
Trojan - 750 posts - 3 pips
Roman - 1000 posts - 4 pips
Barbarian - 1300 posts - 4 pips
Viking - 1600 posts - 5 pips
Renaissance - 2000 posts - 5 pips
Enlightenment - 2500 posts - 6 pips
Supreme - 3000 posts - 6 pips

Original:

Nomad - 1 post - 1 pip
Babylonian - 50 posts - 2 pips
Assyrian - 150 posts - 3 pips
Egyptian - 300 posts - 4 pips
Greek - 500 posts - 5 pips
Trojan - 750 posts - 6 pips
Roman - 900 posts - 7 pips
Barbarian - 1100 posts - 8 pips
Viking - 1400 posts - 9 pips
Renaissance - 1700 posts - 10 pips
Enlightenment - 2000 posts - 11 pips
Supreme - 2500 posts - 12 pips

Hope you'll go through the ranks in no time!

Have we been pipped at the post or have our posts been de-pipped?

I was rather hoping that after we'd reached twelve pips we could have had a whole pomegranate!

Toodle Pip!

UPDATE:

Thanks for pointing out something to me that I set up incorrectly in one of the admin settings, "Member Title Set Up"I think, Dolly!

This is where I've assigned total posts required for both member title changes AND total PIPS counter. I just realized that you should have a title of "Egyptian" (more than 300 posts) and 2 PIPS (changes after 150) and to 3 PIPS at 500. I see that our other Praetorians settings are also out of whack! I made a change to the settings back on NOV 21, 2003 to reduce the total PIPS awarded AND re-defined the member title counter as well. When I did this, I also created a setting called 'Advance Member Group'. Once our members reach a total of 1,000 posts, their titles will automatically change to 'Centurion' by the board. I selected 'Praetorian' to be exempt from these changes and in doing so, I think I also exempted them from their member titles and PIPS changing too! OOOOOOOOPS!

I just changed it so that "Praetorians" are no longer exempt and should gain the title changes and the PIP advancements now. The code only looks at these counts when a member makes a new post. So, when you make your next post, BEFORE you do it, look at your member title of "Babylonian" and 1 PIP. After you make a post, look again and it should change to "Egyptian" with 2 PIPS.

This means that when they post something new, their stats will also re-adjust (ALL PRAETORIANS) I mean.

Cheers!
