Post more, and post quality posts, and you'll advance.

To already ask the next question... What is "good" or "quality" posts?
I'm glad you're ready to ask.
Moderators read the boards all the time and respond to member's discussions and posts. We tend to notice when someone posts alot, posts crappy posts like, "Yeah what he said." or "I couldn't agree with more." or posts really good quality posts.
Good or quality posts, continue to fuel the discussion, make people think, give people some reason to pause and reflect on their own position.
Now mods aren't perfect, but I can say simply that we do notice new posters right away that are posting good quality posts, even those that are borderline troll/flames, but we can see through that an hopefully guide them into being contributing memebers.
Personally, I haven't had time to look at all your posts, but your name here doesn't ring a bell to me. 75 posts isn't anything to sneeze at, but at the same time it's not anything to gloat over either. Again, while it's quality not quantity, the more you post, hopefully the more you'll touch that part of your brain that will post good quality posts.
Don't read too much into this because well, we have lots of moderators. I can say for sure though that the moderators all talk amongst themselves about people who are contributing contributing members good and bad. We talk about ways to help guide to hopefully better discussions and contributions.
good luck!
