"Groundhog" is a board "rank" which changes with the number of posts you've made. At 1,000,000 posts, you are crowned "Uber Major General Sky Captain, Emperor of the Clouds", or something like that. Wink

(The last is a joke, of course, but the first sentence sumas up the rank thing.)

Boikat is a Major, therefore he looks up to me.

I am a Colonel, therefore I look down on him.

Its the way the system works. I have more medals on my chest.

Oh, and by the way, if you delete any of your posts.. it comes of your total count. Undecided

A while back when the forum got revamped, I was a 'God' for about a week until I was stripped of my stripes and heavenly duties! Grin

Now I'm just a Major (pain).

Flying with twins is a lot of fun..
