This might sound stupid, but how do you get the picks on your profile? And what do they represent?!

The more you post the more picks you get. Nothing special.

And your "rank" changes with each pick you earn. I've forgotten what the milestones are, but I'm sure someone here knows.

Welcome to the Fender Forums!

Hi, strokesfan, I suppose you could argue that the picks don't have any point, but in most online communities I've seen there's some sort of rating like that that's supposed to give you an idea of how long the forum has been around, how many active users there are, who has participated the most, etc.

I wouldn't dream to suggest that they measure the poster's credibility, but I'll bet you can use them for that too.

The picks do not mean a thing. The more posts you do, the more picks you get. Some people like increasing their "rank" but really it is nothing special. Just have fun in the Forum. I have learned a lot here. Welcome and I'll see you around.

As someone mentioned, they are based on the number of posts you have, but based on what is says next to your name, that is what you are. After years of hard work, all it took was merely 1000 posts on this forum for me to become a "Professional Musician", but at least now I'll have something to show the IRS as proof of my professional career if I ever get audited... :lol:
