Regardless of what it says,
Welcome to the Forum!

Yeah, it's a "badge of honor" thing. The more you participate, the better your camera "badge". I think it increments after each "milestone" of 10, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 and then who knows? All I know is that I'm at 5DIII after 250. I'm guessing that once you get to 500 or 1000(??) it stops at the 1DX but I may be wrong. I'm sure someone else has it all totally nailed. You may also notice that there are yellow blocks there too. The blocks seem to show up with the badge changes. All I can tell you for sure is that you won't receive any checks in the mail based on your "seniority"! (At least I haven't yet, maybe others know the right handshake or something.)

Enjoy your time here!!
