(→New Ranks: Starting at 13 seems a bit arbitrary. :P) |

Revision as of 00:56, 22 January 2013
The LEGO Message Boards are an official forum on LEGO.com, in which fans may discuss LEGO-related topics online. Since the forum is intended to be safe for children, all posts are reviewed by moderators before becoming public. Users must have a LEGO ID to be able to post. On November 2, 2012, the Message Boards were updated with new features such as new ranks, badges, and users' separate and individual profiles.
Ranks
Higher ranks can be achieved by posting more. Starting at 48 posts needed, the numbers will approximately double every rank you go up. The following is a list of the old ranks:
- Apprentice
Apprentice is the starting rank on the Message Boards. You automatically earn it after you join, but you are not visible to others until you have one post.
- Journeyman
Journeyman is the 2nd rank on the Message Boards. It is reached at 48 posts.
- Initiate
Initiate is the third rank on the Message Boards. It is reached at 95 posts.
- JuniorBuilder
JuniorBuilder is the fourth rank on the LEGO Message Boards. You achieve it at 192 posts.
- MasterBuilder
MasterBuilder is a rank on the Message Boards that is earned at 384 posts.
- Craftsman
Craftsman is a rank on the Message Boards that is earned once the poster passes 754 posts.
- Artisan
Artisan is reached once you have 1,505 posts on the LEGO Message Boards.
- Inventor
Inventor is a rank on the Message Boards given after 3,009 posts.
- Old Timer
Old Timer is the current third-to-last rank on the Message Boards. You are an Old Timer if you have over 6,017 posts.
- Maniac
Maniac is the second-to-last known rank on the Message Boards. Maniac takes 12,032 posts to get.
Legend
Legend is currently the last rank on the Message Boards. Legend takes 24,064 posts to get.
New Ranks
After the 2012 update, the old ranks were replaced by new ranks. They are achieved by quality not quantity. The only known ranks so far are Caveman, Pharaoh, Spartan Warrior, Gladiator, Roman Soldier, Minotaur, Viking, Samurai Warrior, Knight, Highland Battler, Forestman, and Ninja.

Stud Ranking
On the LEGO Message Boards, you will see eight studs above the person’s avatar’s head. Some may be yellow, and some may be white. The yellow ones are the ones that the poster has, and the white ones, the ones that they don't have. You gain one of these for having so many posts. What makes these different from the ranks, is that the amount of posts you need goes up as more people gain more posts. Therefore, you get a stud for being in the top so many posters.

LEGO MBs
Notes
- The Message Boards were updated in 2005 and were supposed to be updated again in 2011 along with the rest of the LEGO.com website, however, they were not. The LMBs were later updated on November 2, 2012.
- Before 2001, Moderators were trained to view the messages submitted to the Message Boards. In 2011, they trained a new group of moderators and since then, moderation has been much faster.
- Charge is seen on the front page in his Deep Freeze outfit.
