I have just been noticed a few of the random "ranks" on HTG.

techgranny - HTG's Oma (not sure what a Oma is though)
mandypinecone - better half of a mod
Lighthouse - 10,000 XP Poster (no clue on this one)

I just found these to be comical.

I believe there to be only one other. Sadly, the best was only temporary due to the faux accusation of 'moderator abuse'.
We know you still want it...just waiting for your permission :p

> "faux accusation of 'moderator abuse'"
I think both happened on the topic at http://www.howtogeek.com/forum.....m-question

> "Lighthouse - 10,000 XP Poster (no clue on this one)"
I think this means the Lighthouse sent the 10,000th post to the Windows XP forum.

There is also the title for the user Appletom of "10,000th Vista Poster" which I think is the same only for the Windows Vista forum.

Scott, It seems we have differing opinions on giving out answers.

I'd replace "opinion" with "style" but that's only my opinion.

Oma, German word for granny - courtesy of whs and an unnamed mod

better half of a mod - not hard to figure, although I could be wrong:)

XP 10K - beginning to think he's in a witness protection program

Randomly ran accross another
mysticgeek - Author

Also, I just drew the connection between Lighthouse's - 10,000 XP Poster and Windows XP.
I was thinking XP as in eXperience Points.

Does that make me more geeky or less?
