How many posts does it take?

After reaching a "One of the Regulars" status I was curious about how many posts it takes to reach what title and what are all of the titles on the Lounge? I skimmed around and I couldn't find a thread on this so I decided to create one. I don't think MK's the Guy in Charge needs any further explanation. But I'd like to know what the rest are and how they came about.

And lets not forget our "Bartenders". These are the people who monitor the threads, each are given one or more specific areas to keep an eye on and make sure us Floungers are staying in line:)

They also hand out FREE cocktails.

When I saw the thread title, I thought it was the ole inquiry as to how many posts does it take to change a lightbulb, with a vintage twist.

OK, I'll bite. ;)

One to take off his Fedora and vintage DB suitjacket in order to get up on a stepladder to do the actual lightbulb change, one to hold the jacket, one to hold the Fedora, about a dozen to jointly lamment they can't find said Fedora in their size on "The Bay", five or six to comment on the high armholes and peak lapels, one to notice it was a true vintage suit, one to ask if it was dead-stock, one to notice once he's up the ladder the changer has on AE spectators, and one to point out the lightbulb changer did an expert job with the Navy tuck. OH - and one more to comment that modern lightbulbs don't last like they did "back in the day."

And one oldtimer to grumble about how this has all been discussed before and pull up old threads on the subject.

This info might be good for an FAQ topic, or perhaps a "sticky."
