    Well, every new member is labelled as a Peon and is highlighted in a horrible green marking that is a beacon of noobness?. So for any new member,like myself heres what is means.

    The definition of Peon:

    a. An unskilled laborer or farm worker of Latin America or the southwest United States.
    b. Such a worker bound in servitude to a landlord creditor.
    c. A menial worker; a drudge.
    d. also (pyn) In India and other parts of South and Southeast Asia, a person of menial position, especially a messenger, servant, or foot soldier.

    lol

    Quite appropriate...
    Don't worry - no-one stops a Peon for very long.

    The labeling is just for fun, do not look at it in the conventional way, I guess you do not play WOW?

    Don't worry, I was a Peon too. The thing about being a Peon is that you're motivated to post more to become a grunt + berserker etc.

    No, you don't post more to be a grunt and so on, you post because you have information to share, definitely not to raise up the "ranks". I would advise against posting just for the sake of posting.

    He is a moderator, I think they can put whatever they want, but he choose to be humble and put his rank as permanent peon.
