[Solved] Member classifications on the forums - what do they mean?
I've just noticed that I'm now classed as a "noble member". Is the forum suggesting I'm gassy and inert? If so, I'm impressed by its accurate assessment.
Is there anywhere where the full list of classifications and qualifying criteria can be viewed?
105 m2 bungalow in South East England
Mitsubishi Ecodan 8.5 kW air source heat pump
18 x 360W solar panels
1 x 6 kW GroWatt battery and SPH5000 inverter
1 x Myenergi Zappi
1 x VW ID3
Raised beds for home-grown veg and chickens for eggs
"Semper in excretia; sumus solum profundum variat"
I must admit that these classifications intrigue me too! Toodles. (Wot am I famed for I wonder?!)
Toodles, heats his home with cold draughts and cooks food with magnets.
The classifications and titles on the forums are tied to your contributions, mainly through your posts. I came up with these classifications over three years ago and had some fun with the names, but I can't remember exactly when each one changes. It's not something that will be published, so keep posting.
What's far more engaging and indicative of your standing on the forums is the kWh score on your profile. There are many factors that can influence this score, both positively and negatively. Again, these will not be published. This autumn, I'm planning to introduce a range of perks connected to this score. Stay tuned!
