How does the member status get determined? I was just wondering, cause the one user on here said she is a senior member and only joined in Feb... Is it by the amount of posts you have?

I'm not sure to be exact. I think it has to do with the amount of time and the number of posts. I've been a senior member for years now! Yikes!

I'm a moderator for the forum. It's the title I get for having access to all forums, the ability to edit, delete, etc. I was a senior member though for about a year and a half before I was presented this opportunity.
