Can anyone point me to something on the Club Polk website that explains what the different "polkxxxxxx" levels are and mean? Can't seem to find that info anywhere. Thanks.

    sure,

    polkie = almost god
    polkhead = god
    polkologist = godder
    polk guru = goddest
    anything else = nobody

    just messin' with ya. I doesn't mean anything other than a fun way to reward people with post counts. Ask Sid....
    I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    Is there a list of the number of posts that graduates a person from one level to the next?

    Only Matt knows that information. Micah knew....and we all know what happened to him. Better off not asking.....

    .......your first transformation awaits you at a mere...50posts
    then the going gets slower.
    Of course anyone who's only been here a month and has 5000 posts,
    may have other issues.

    Actually... I never had to go through that whole Polkie-Polkhead thing... I've had my own little title for a LONG time. I didn't post for "status". ;)

    ROFL...pretty pathetic, I guess...but then, building a box with 4 sides pretty much ensured that.....;)

    I guess that means I'm up to be a Polk Expert next! LOL And that'll sooooo not be true!
