    With so many experienced Prius owners out there with such sage advice (JimboK); how did I become a Senior Member with only 107 posts? Love, love, love my Pri but there is still so much to learn. I think this distinction belongs to those who have educated new/junior members like myself. Perhaps a senior member should have x years of posts before they become senior members. I love PC and check it every day (reading hundreds of posts) but only post if I have something to say.

    Sandi,
    Somehow I think Prius Chat would have turned me into a Senior Member. I decided I would rather become a super hero, so I did. It didn't affect my age only my standing in Prius Chat. It does make you worldly though.

    Senior Members are those who have 100 or more posts.
    Congratulations, Sandi!:clap2:

    Dude, I'm not worldly. Jimbok (and others like him) are the GODS of PC. All I am saying is give the experience PCs their due and let us be Junior Members until we've been at this a little longer.

    Thanks Tony but I think you guys deserve the privilege. You guys ROCK! You have taught me so much! I'm happy with Junior Member until I have much more experience. I don't want to confuse Newbies or other Junior Members with my comments.

    If you want, you can change the description under your name via the "User CP." You would still be a Senior Member in terms of post count, but without the pressure of the label. :D

    Not worried about the pressure; just want to give the experienced PCs their due. My comments account for little; when I see comments from the true PC pros, I just feel the title doesn't give them their due. Thanks anyway. I LOVE PC!

    I have enough gray in my beard to be a senior member. Maybe I'll change mine to say "Having a senior moment..." What were we talking about?

    For some extra money, you can become a Silver Member, Gold Member, Platinum Member, or even Titanium Member.

    I went for the cheapest option.

    Sandi, when you were a Junior Member, you couldn't change your title. Now that you've passed 100 posts, you have the power to change your title to Junior Member if you want to, or La Leonardelli or whatever you want. You make the change in your Control Panel (User CP).

    I didn't realize people were so focused on our members around here. Having a Senior Member didn't sit well with me, so I did something about it.

    Thanks for the advice Bill. I will change back to a junior member until I feel experienced enough to give sage advice like yourself.

    Hi Sandi,

    Congrats on joining the "Senior Club"! Don't forget this qualifies you to the senior discount ... ;)

    Hey Danny,

    What was the senior discount % on PC Shop?

    I try to give parsley advice, sometimes with a dash of chili.

    :spy:There just must be to many old timers on this site. That is why they call us Senior Members.
