Question Didn't I used to have Senior Member status?


This may be a silly question, but in looking into private messaging, etc. today, I noticed that I'm a "Member," and as such have some restrictions. I seem to remember years ago being a "Senior Member," back before LQ started making a bunch of changes, such as adding reputation, blogs, wikis, etc. Have the requirements changed since then? Am I just off my rocker? If you can help solve this mystery (and have been on LQ long enough to know the answer), I'd appreciate your insight.

Thanks!

Thanks for the info, repo. I've seen something like that before, so I guess my question is whether the number of posts required has changed over the years. Any insight?

We have not changed the number of posts required to have the Senior Member usertitle in many many years. You may be confusing the usertitle with the Senior Member usergroup (which is and has been 150 posts for a very long time), however.
