A PPI is a pre-purchase inspection.

Goto user cp, edit your profile and you can change it to whatever you want.

You can change you member name under your profile. Click the user cp button above then edit profile.

PPI if you don't know and you just bought a 911 you don't want to know.

Goes from Member to Senior Member. Then, possibly Moderator for the chosen (well deserved) few.

After a while you'll get a grasp of who the powers and personalities are in different areas of expertise....including humor, philosophy, spelling etc..

Welcome to the board.

I think I went from Junior to Senior member after about 100 posts on the board. Doesn't mean I know anything though. As others said, you can change it your self

I just changed automatically from Junior Member to Member. Seemed like 30 posts is the magic number for that.

All kidding aside, I must tell the story of introducing Jack Olsen to Wayne @ the 2002 Ventura Auto Fest. Yes, that's right. He was a moderator and they had never met. At least in person. So the special friends of Wayne myth bites the dust.

It doesn't matter if you are a junior or senior member. I think you will find out everyone is treated pretty well the same on the board. There are some who contribute more than others and some who know more than others, but everybody is more interested in information and friendly exchange than anything else. Additionally you will find a bunch of contributors with really great senses of humor and imagination. I read the board quite a bit, when I have a minute or two, but don't have time to contribute much. But, whenever I ask a question, I get nothing but great feedback. You will too.

If you ask to many stupid questions, they change you back to a junior member.

So true. I was a senior member before I changed my username but I still ask really basic questions on the board. The cool thing is, no matter how dumb my questions may have been, someone almost always chimed in to help.

100 is the number when it flips over to Senior Member. Grand Pooba....I don't know. It's Wayne's football, but Warren has it for now.

Edit: I'm wrong! Wayne has passed up Warren by about 50 posts. Wayne is the Grand Poobah.
