In case these bespoke titles get rolled out across the board, could I reserve "Grumpy Old Git", please? I suspect there's many here that would qualify for that one . .

Anyone wondering about a straight answer to the original question
You automatically get designated as a 'Senior Member' at 100 posts... but given we've members who have 10 times that number maybe we need to get a bit cleverer... 'Adolescent Member' at 100 posts. 'Middle Aged Member' at 250 and 'Old Aged Pensioner' at 500
