    peon - originally peasant, now; office boy, go-fer, dogsbody etc.
    grunt - foot soldier
    berserker - a nordic warrior that wore bearskin and madly charged into battle

    The listings change the more you post. Newbies are peons. After I think 20-30 posts it changes to grunt. And on and on up the list. I haven't been keeping too close an eye on what number of posts changes the label but the more you post on DP the less likely you are to be stuck with an offensive monicker.

    They aren't real, but apparently they do mean something in a MMORPG that Shawn used to play(from what I heard)...
