Pet Peeve

Hi,

I have a pet peeve I need to get off my chest. Why do so many forums, this one included, label me as a beginner or newbie? I have been using Linux for 4 years and hardly call myself a newbie.

Thanks.....Paul

I see your point, but since joining the forum does not request you to provide your Linux/kde experience there is no way to reflect experience. I believe it is a reflection of your experience on the forum just like the progress bars and levels.

I agree that "label" may be misleading, but as you make more posts to the site it will change.

Maybe the term "New Member" would be most accurate?

I added before every rank forum so you're now a

Forum .....

Maybe there will be a change again soon but this is OK at the moment, or?

I geuss it's a good solution.
