Congrats on the silver status. When you finally make gold, try not to freak out like I did when it happened.

BRONZE:
The first of our elite levels also triggers the code that removes ads from the discussion board*, the indicator requires at least:
300 posts, 300 stars, and 300 flags.

BRONZE: (exception)
Members with more than 2,000 posts, but less than the other levels for bronze receive the "BRONZE" tag, but still see ads.

SILVER:
The second of our elite levels who see no ads on the board, the indicator requires at least:
400 posts, 500 stars, and 600 flags.

GOLD:
The highest of our elite levels who see no ads on the board, the indicator requires at least:
500 posts, 750 stars, and 1,000 flags.

I think those are the old standards before the latest update (when was that 2010? My how time flies). The gold and silver borders are based solely on your WATS score anymore with the top ranking members getting them. There must be some type of glitch for ANOK not to have one (unless he requested for it not to show. I think some members have done that).


You have to be careful though, if someone bypasses you in their WATS score, you can be pushed out of the silver or gold level and find your way-cool border downgraded or disappeared. Its a constant competition and a dog eat dog world if you want to hold onto you fancy border.

Now, to gold..

Were you demoted to silver recently? I could have sworn you were on the gold standard previously...

It seems you need a minimum of 134 in your WATS score to stay afloat. If you can't post as much, you're bound to be overcome by the more active members.

I have no idea how I manage to stay up there anymore.

Your opinion is irrelevant to me, as I see you've no colored border.

Congrats to you.

I m still working on Avatar


running with the wolves

A high five smack at you girl!

I am hot on your tail for the silver lining.

Aww dang, I coulda sworn I was pretty silver once upon a time..
I just checked my creds, i meet all the standards but I have no colours!

how to you inrease your WATS?

no matter found it:

The "WATS Index" is calculated as: ((FLAGS x 5) x STARS)/1000000.

Flags definitely have more weight, but someone with lots of stars but solid flags can get into the list.

Oh I was but I stopped posting for a while - due to real life issues - and I dropped off the top 50 list, so now I'm just silver.

Edit: Ah, FortAnthem posted pretty much the same before, sorry, I didn't see it.

The thin border on the outside of my post. You'll notice you do not have it yet.

You need to increase your WATS score (Increased through the amount of flags, stars and posts you have) for it to come into effect. Get a high enough WATS score and It'll turn into gold and you'll find yourself in this list.
