    I had it and now it is gone. :-( I don't know what happened.

    You have to post 20 times (I think) within 2 weeks and continue doing that to maintain the "regular" status.
    I could be wrong, but it's something like that.

    Well, now it says it again. That's just a little strange. LOL!

    No glitch.

    It's not a permanent status - like tenure. ;-)

    As AlwaysQuilting said upthread, you have to always have a minimum of 20 posts within the last 14 days to maintain "regular" status.

    If you fall below that, the "regular" will disappear. Post some more and it will be back the morning following the day you hit the 20 mark again. The system updates automatically at 5:30AM PST.

    Oh, and posts in the Classified section don't count towards the 20 posts.

    Dems the rules. ;-)

    The reasoning behind that makes sense. Whatever perks go along with the "regular" status should only be available to those consistently contributing members. And I guess the only to measure that is by posts.

    Are there any perks?
    Or is it just the perk of a visual recognition here on the Boards?

    It is ONE of the prerequisites to being allowed to post For Sale items in the Classifieds section.

    Other than that, I'm not aware of any. Doesn't mean, though, that there aren't additional perks.

    I have never cared what my status is, as I can come on the board anytime, anyway. I can be extremely frustrated or really enjoy my time on the board.
