I was wondering how do members titles come to be. New user is a given, long time, reg. How does one get the title Tractor Expert and Tractor Guru? whats the difference ? Is there a written test or something? I have posted on other sites and I am just reg, an never gave it much thought but am curious.

I'm curious what those other sites told you

When the powers that be deem you worthy, you are invited in. You then have to go through an initiation that includes drinking 90 weight oil from a human skull. If all goes well in two to five years you will receive your new title.
I'm still waiting.

I had no idea what you were talking about, then I checked modern view and saw "PJH - Tractor Guru".

That's a stretch for even the wildest imagination, HA!

I know what a tractor looks like, having owned a few, but you could just as accurately call me an astronaut.

How about 10W30 instead of 90wt??

I normally prefer a fine pilsner, but okay.

On this site one's title is determined by how fast one can consume the "malty grain premium dark Ale"!!!:lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually the forum title has to do with members number of posts.
I think regular title is 1-500 posts,long time poster is 501-5000 & then tractor guru's are 5000+ posts BUT I'm probably WRONG.

All gave me a smile, glad you have some jockularity. Would that skull have ever belonged to a fellow named Geronimo's? By your answers the # of posts fits. I will kick it to the moderator and see.

Well I only got about the same answer but one said you could chose your own?

They have me as a tractor expert, I might actually be a tractor expert if I'd stayed pulling wrenches all these years but gave up the mechanic gig in '83. Since then I've milked cows, fixed travel trailers, mowed grass, did a stint in the US Air Force with my finger on the nuclear pulse, blew stuff up (relax another Air Force gig), sold cars, bought used cooking oil, meat scraps and guts, cooked used cooking oil, meat scraps and guts, operated waste water and air treatment plants (used at the aforementioned gut cooking palace), supervised folks fixing industrial equipment (used to cook guts, meat scraps and used cooking oil) ran the facilities maintenance department for a small county in Wisconsin (including their motor pool) did media promotions, real estate inspections, retail merchandise resets, supervised the maintenance department at an egg products producer and built motorhomes. I currently run a shift in a breaking plant at an egg farm (if you're eating eggs for breakfast at Hardee's thank you).
