L19 posting "ranks"

[jgr314]

Is there a list of all the "ranks" for posters on L19? I've seen:
beginner
dies in gote
dies with sente (probably worse than lives in gote, but depends on board situation?)
lives in gote
lives with ko
lives in sente
shodan
judan
tengen
oza
gosei

I've listed in the order I guess the run from someone new to the forum to most active/old hands, though I have little confidence in the order of the last three and am not even sure if they are strictly ordered.

Ranks by minimum post count...
- Dies in gote 20
- Dies with sente 70
- Lives with ko 125
- Lives in gote 300
- Lives in sente 700
- Gosei 1330
- Oza 2050
- Tengen 4000
- Judan 5000
- Honinbo 8000
- Meijin 11000
- Kisei 17000

We aim to eliminate spammers before they have the chance to die in gote :-p

Summary:
It is as difficult to make some progress on this forum as it is with go itself

Rumor has it, once you reach kisei, you can’t lose any arguments on the forum.

Then again, the reason might just be that you’re practically the only one posting at that point.

Hehe. The most fruitful discussions I've had, were with myself

"ranks" for posters on L19?

L19 ranks are the opposite of Go ranks, for they reflect quantity, not quality, and the former is inversely correlated with the latter.

Disagree.
At go, one cannot have quality (high level games; high rank) without quantity (having played many games, that is).
Quantity and quality are different dimensions on different scales.

I nominate new title for 20,000+ posts to be named 'Zero'
But then again, I haven't see anyone with 10,000+ posts yet.

Things have quieted down a lot since 2013 or 2014. I think you might be one of the more prolific posters during that time...
