mickjapa108,

To the best of my knowledge my explaination is how it works. I don't know why some people start out on a distinguished road while others are off the scale. It could be a glitch or something but most certainly is nothing personal. Maybe I can help you out :wink:.

Peerless is highly respected and one of the most knowledgeable persons on the forum and has an incredible knack for nailing the trolls/spammers/undesirables that slither through here. Also some of his comments are downright hilarious . So I'm not sure what you meant, but my account is working fine .

Lol.. never noticed that before. That would mean that I had a bad reputation for a long time before going on a distinguished road
