Could someone explain why this member is deemed to be a "Gold Member" :confused: http://www.codeproject.com/script/Membership/Profiles.aspx?mid=3956886[^]

So it should be silver at best, but bronze more likely, right?

Reynolds Glisner

Your reasoning doesn't match the description given on CP, as I can give 10 others that have been longer on codeproject, have more articles, more posts and have a higher average article rating that this user and are at a mere silver level.

Urm... no. New members start off at bronze, +1 = silver, +1 = gold.

Name one. People are not made gold after a discussion happens at the pub on their merits, it's automated.

That is just pushing out facts... You can prove anything with facts. However that is how he got GOLD

Hey - checking the status of each member 1 by 1 takes time. There's 5 million people to check.

Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

martin_hughes: All right, it's getting crowded in here. Everyone out. Everyone out. C'mon. [Everyone starts to leave] martin_hughes: Not you, Trollslayer. Not you, Pete O'Hanlon. Not you, Grizzly Adams. Not you, Oakman. Not you, MVP's back there. Not you, Norm.Net holding that wrench. Not you, members answering the original question, making it seem like you're doing something. [martin_hughes and Trollslayer look at Reynolds Glisner] martin_hughes: Ohh, this is uncomfortable. Trollslayer: Heheheh, the tiny one can't take a hint, Heheheheh. He doesn't understand he's small.
