yea, depending on where post count is kept, since I post from a number of different machines, work, onsite, home...etc...I've been stuck on newbie for what seems like an age! Another problem is new posts read aren't the same on all comps....

Both the post count and the read/unread flags are kept on the server, so it shouldn't matter which computer you use. The problem with the read/unread flags is a bug which nobody has been able to figure out so far. The post count seems accurate, though, you can check yours by clicking on your username. You only need 4 more to become journeyman.
