How the heck did Honey get the "Lamer" rank even though he/she has 0 posts? Through pm's?
And don't ask why I'm always asking about rankings

Consider that Dan is user #2, I'm user #5 and "Honey" is #6. (1,3,4 do not exist). |

The "Lamer" rank is not a positive thing to have. It used to be given to banned users who did something overly dumb to get banned. It was also given to some users as a joke (e.g. Martin). The account "Honey" is not a real user but a place holder for some of the behind the scenes stuff on the site that deals with spam and needs a user ID. "Honey" is short for "Honeypot": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeypot_%28computing%29 |
