Cupcake ranks?

[Princess Cupcake]

One of the little features of this forum software is the ability to give titles to members depending on how many posts they've made. (There's the ability to give members custom titles too, but that has to be done on a case-by-case basis.) The default titles are "Junior Member", "Senior Member" etc. Naturally I consider this utterly boring and not cute enough for a cupcake forum, but am having trouble thinking up some better ones. I considered "Single Tier" "Two Tier" etc., but that's more cake oriented. Anyone have some good cupcake-related ideas? Please post them even if you only have one... maybe we'll end up using several people's ideas. :)

how about using the names of cupcakes? the more posts they have... the more extravagant the cupcake they are.

How about a cupcake status based on the process of baking the cupcakes ... for example: (not perfect - will need tweaking)


Cupcake Ingredients
Cupcake Mix
Cupcake in Oven
Cooling Cupcake
Iced Cupcake
Iced and Sprinkled Cupcake
Iced and Sprinkled with cherry on top cupcake!


sorry can't think of any better explanations for the stages - and they may be a bit too long!!! *lmao!*

Another idea would be to keep it simple
New Cupcake
Mini Cupcake
Chatty Cupcake
Cupcake-a-holic -or maybe- cupcake addict
The mutha of all cupcakes!


:laugh:
How many levels do you have to name?
Or is this up to you as the administrator?

I really like your ideas SmittenKitten; now I'm deciding between your second list and:

Fresh Cupcake Ingredients (registered users with 0 posts)
Cupcake Batter (1 through 10 posts)
Baking Cupcake (11 through 25)
Frosted Cupcake (26 through 100)
Frosted Cupcake with Sprinkles (101 through 250)
...
Cupcake Bouquet (for users with thousands of posts, lol)

And "Discarded Half-Eaten Cupcake" for the banned usergroup (not that I expect anyone to be in it)

The "New Cupcake" list has the advantage of being more understandtable to newbies, though I like the other list better as it's more whimsical.

I can make as many levels as necessary, though I think five or so should be good.

I have finally gotten my act together and updated the ranks! I set way more than I originally intended, but maybe it's better this way. I'm still open to suggestions :)
