hmmm well interesting discussion because I hadnt noticed.
It is a subtle thing but I feel the use of M or m comes through loud and clear.
I propose those with lower case are not as important than those who have capital M. Or due to the Serpo garb, those people with m are randoms so not
expected to stay.
Now, I joined around the time of Serpo...and did not know anything about that hooo haa. But, I would be very very annoyed if my membership just as it
coincided with Serpo meant less than someone else who joined 6 months before Serpo.
Maybe those with m are not valued and their info (apparrently different info than other Members had to fill out?) is used for marketing & advertising
data?
Protect the Members and members who are quite possibly no more than randoms, use their info for money, or target them with more pop ups?
?
edit: hmm I have just read a post and that person joined TODAY and it says Member, not member??

I don't even look at any of the indicators, like M vs m, points, the bar, the color, etc. I judge the post on its own merit. 
by the way, what in the hell is that bar?

If I right click the bar and select properties, the 'Alternate text' field shows me the member's or Member's post count.
