Hi there.  I'm fascinated by bit coin, and also this forum.  Where can I learn about what all the cute coin symbols and users types mean?

I was really wondering about the coin symbols that appear on the user profiles and the various titles...obv they denote some sort of ranking, but are these explained anywhere?

I have actually wondered about this myself.  As I posted and spent time here I just magically got more of them so I expect they are based on your number of posts and how much time you have spent.

My next level will be "Hero Member" but I don't know what it takes to get there.  Not worried though - it will eventually happen :)

i assume that would be 500  ::)

the coin icons would simply be a visual indication of aforementioned rank

Hi,

Welcome! The best place I have found to learn about BitCoin is the Wiki at http://www.bitcoin.org (http://www.bitcoin.org). It is worth taking time to read and decide what you would like to acheive with BitCoin. The forum members here are also extremly helpful especially the mining section of the forum if you where planning on that sort of thing.
