Hello, everyone.
Idk if this is the right category where I am posting this thread, but I'm very curious to know, how ranking works here on the forum. As far as I see every user has a rank or something under their names, like mine is prominent. I remember that just a few weeks ago I was an initiate. How does this whole thing work? And thanks how can I climb up the ladder of the Tom's hardware hierarchy?
And as always thanks guys.

The user rank depends on your points you've gained. And you gain points by replies in the forum, likes received, Best Answers gained and trophies earned.

E.g i have point score of 42.000+ and i'm Illustrious.

There are no complete list to see all the ranks, that i know of, but looking around a bit in the forums results in some of the other scores and ranks:
Prominent - 500+
Notable - 1100+
Respectable - 2000+
Reputable - 5300+
Admirable - 7700+
Honorable - 9700+
Dignified - 14.000+
Distinguished - 18.000+
Splendid - 21.000+
Illustrious - 42.000+
Glorious - 43.000+
Champion - 51.000+
Titan - 73.000+
Speedy Gonzales - 160.000+

Also, there are no current ranks beyond Titan, the rank of Speedy Gonzales was given to DLOT (formerly SR-71), due to his outstanding history of being our #1 poster, and his rapid response time.
Great info. Thanks. I wish they'd done likes and auto-best answers when I did most of my posts from 2010-2014. If they had, I'd probably be Glorious by now.

So that's what happened to SR-71, he got a new name!
