Lamer rank

-----------------------------------

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 :P

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

Oh I see... I know that lamer rank isn't a good rank though, I asked Insectoid about it.
