Neophyte member

Barrie Law · 23rd July 2005, 01:51

I see by my name I am a Neophyte Member.
Erm I thought?
What does that mean??

Collins English Dictionary:

Neophyte- 1 a beginner 2 a person newly converted to a religious faith. 3 a novice in a religious order

Well it's a damn site better than what "I" thought it meant.

cheers

or in RBW speak some one that has between 25 and 50 posts

**UWSojourner** · 23rd July 2005, 18:06

So you're Neophyte until you hit 50 posts, but you become the Site Founder when you make 921 posts. Always something to grow into.

New - less 25
Neophyte - less 50
Junior - less 100
Member - less 200
Senior Member - over 200

I've been working on an alternative.

Now, somewhere between the reason for this board, my admiration for the man and my odd sense of humour I have implemented ...

... the "Pyle Title System":

first 49 posts: Real RBw Expert
at 50 posts: RBw Novice
at 100 posts: RBw Beginner
at 500 posts: RBw Weenie
at 1000+: Disciplined RBw Survivor

based on his famous

Now that I have spend more than 200 hours diving with a closed-circuit system, it is clear that I am still a rebreather weenie. In my experience, the underlying quality that divers must have to consistently survive rebreather dives is discipline.

10,000+ ... you’ll have to wait till someone actually reaches it.
