Just wondering.

How do you get these "power user" and "skilled" etc buttons under your name?

Does not seem to be only for the higher posters, or ones with more rep since I've seen some on folks with less then 60 posts, I was just curious what the requirements were.

Staff members maybe, or friends of staff/admins?
Sorry, I don't know myself but that's my best guess.

hello angryman
these buttons depend on a few things...
most of these people just are seen by the higher up and thinks that he/she is helpful to in the community..
another would be if you already have badges in Vista Forums you get i gues you can say seniority and would come over to this forum (as the same admin is in charge of both forums)
another would be if the admin just likes you and how you post....
these are the few that i know...

This is how many points your need to get

# Skilled = 100 Rep
# Power User = 400 Rep
# Seven Pro = 600 Rep
# Seven Guru = 1000 Rep

Or z3r010 promotes you for helping. For the supporter badge you need to donate to the site.
