Default Bust?

What is with the sayings below your name. I notice that I'm a bust, but I have seen some Short Stack, bubble and a few more I'm sure. Does that have something to do with the points that also seem to accumulate after you make posts? Personally I don't like being a bust, I'd much rather be a bubble...

Yes, they do have to do with the number of posts a player has.

0-50 Posts - Bust
50-100 Posts - Bubble
100-150 Posts - Short-Stack
150-200 Posts - Chip Leader
250+ - Champion

This is a great way to see where we fit on the forum. Will these counts be readjusted as more posts are posted and more people are members?

I am glad I found this thread. I, too, was wondering why it showed bust under my name. I guess this clears that up - I'll just be glad to reach the Bubble status - I am tired of being a Bust.

Default oh okay

thats cool so I am not that far away from being off this bust crap. so are there any added benefits of being a champion, like do you get automatic entry into freerolls without the posts, or do you get your jersey retired???

You wish.
Just for becoming a champion on the posts doesn't mean that you will not have to make the points for the tournys entry.
Not even the site admin or the moderators don't have access to them if they do not make the points.
I think posting is a good thing and it will not take much time to do it.
I do it just for fun.

I agree, I post on this forum way too much, but it really only takes about 2 hours per week to get 300 points. That being said, I think I should cut down in the next couple of weeks.

I think one could get 50 points easily by just posting 10 minutes a day. Not really that hard considering all of the topics we have and all of the members we have to reply to.
