    The more you post, the more your useless title will 'advance'.

    I tell the chicks I'm a Tauren but they don't get it. :rolleyes:

    that's a nice one,
    he says, why he is one! just post and post till you become a grunt, someday you will get a better rank.
    the number of posts determine the rank, peon is what you start with!:)

    pe·on1 /ˈpiən, ˈpiɒn/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[pee-uhn, pee-on] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
    –noun
    1. (in Spanish America) a farm worker or unskilled laborer; day laborer.
    2. (formerly, esp. in Mexico) a person held in servitude to work off debts or other obligations.
    3. any person of low social status, esp. one who does work regarded as menial or unskilled; drudge.

    As for why you are one: You have a low post count, and thus have yet to be promoted to higher forum rank. As you are new, and an unknown who has yet to contribute much to the forum you are considered to be of low social status.

    Peon is the highest honor one can achieve at DP. Most start as a peon then fall from grace and end up as a tauren, spirit walker or other "less than the almighty peon".

    Wear the peon badge with pride...odds are you too will fall;)

    That's great!

    As soon as he posts more, he will loose his high level of honor.

    just plop down 50 bones for a custom user title and then you can peon your title all day long.

    Just think of the fun you could have:

    Don't Be a Peon
    I am a Massive Peon
    Peon is as Peon Does
    Leon the Peon

    it's endless :D
