Well, originally I did not anticipate people going above 10,000 posts, and we already have two members over 10,000 posts, and I am approaching 10,000 posts myself (although my rank will never change). I was programming additional ranks as we went along as Vutjebal and Shucander hit 20,000, then 30,000. So last month I decided to just program them all, up to 100,000, that way I do not have to touch it again.  Plus, we will be adding more ways to earn posts. For example, commenting on articles and recipes now earn posts. Before commenting on recipes did not earn posts and you could not comment on articles. Eventually adding recipes will add to your post count. With some of the changes, we will see people earning higher ranks faster.

Also, it should be noted that each rank is usually harder to get than the last one. It gets progressively harder to achieve the next level. For example, there are 12 ranks from posts 0 through 10,000 but only 7 ranks from 10,000 to 100,000.  Or put it another way, you go through 12 ranks on your way to 10,000 posts, but then you need 10,000 more posts to get to the next level.

Originally posted by vutjebalPosting recipes and on articles ...what can we score.... how many 5, 10 or 25  Well, a post is a post is a post, so your post count only increases by 1 for each post. However, you may get more votes in the battle for an item. For example, posting a recipe currently gives you 25 votes for the country you represent, and 0 posts are added to your post count. We eventually want to change it so that your post count increases by 1 for that as well. Also, I think the new version of the forum has a point system. That may change things as well.

I'm not counting, but if that's the system to work with, no problema.
