Welcome Its hard to stay a Peon - there is so much to post about the more you post the more you learn - I was a reader - which is helpful, but it seems the more you get invlolved the better the discussions get. People don't mind investing the time to give REAL answers to posters who are involved and are likely to actually use the advice and benefit from it, and return with experiance to share.
I think you need to make around 40 posts to jump to the next one, Grunt. I'm not sure about time, I just thought it was about the number of posts.
Thanks. Thats what I meant, how many posts. Like saying how far is it and someone says about 20 minutes, instead of 10 miles. I'll be glad to contribute!
