That means you are newbie here .. that's all No ,, The status will change automatically when you'll complete each stage of posts count .. such as : 50,100,500,1000 ..
Peon is not your status. It is a member level. Once you have so many posts it changes automatically to grunt, then champion of the naaru, then hand of A'dal etc. You can't change it unless you become a premium member.
Ok. I see, it seems I was a bit late to post my question without reading first Joshvelco's response. Thanks for sharing the info, it was appreciated.
peon doesn't mean your experience and your bank account. hehe. You must learn step by step and take carefully.
peon shows a newbie member you can't change it yourself it'll change eventually when your posts gets up
The words peon (pronounced /ˈpiË.É’n/) and peonage are derived from the Spanish peón [peˈon]. It has a range of meanings but its primary usage is to describe laborers with little control over their employment conditions. But in DP, its means u r a new member and that you haven't been an active member for long... Your interpretation is funny though....
