      I actually find that rather offensive, both Cotty and I and Solo have been involved in and even started threads about this very subject.
      For exactly the reason you now call sandbagging.

      How do you choose what you should be from the three options,
      Ok I'm Not a beginner, but I'm also not advanced as I barely use layout, can't write a plugin and have limited experience with only one render engine.
      This leaves me with only one option, Intermediate.

        Don't see why anybody would "sandbag" their skill ranking. Not like any of us are getting prizes for being at one level or another. Agree it might not hurt to add a few more levels though.

          Chill...Box, it was a compliment, albeit tongue in cheek, but one I agree with. You guys have proved many times how fluent you are, (in your own ways), with Su.

              So... looking at the posts here and Cotty's thread, it seems that some of us wouldn't mind extended ranking options.
              As said before I like this...

              Beginner
              Novice
              Intermediate
              Advanced
              Expert

              We don't need, or are asking for, a pissing match about who is the 'best'.
              And as Box says, who could be the best at all the aspects of the Su/Layout/Plugins/Communication interface?
              A guru perhaps? But let us not go there just now:)

                baz, Like your list. Would possibly ad one more rank though. How about after "expert" you have "master" for those few who have reach the top of SU's Mt. Olympus.

                Bob James, Apologies , the "tongue in cheek" nature of your earlier post sort of flew over my head also. 😳

                  I just think it's funny that it's 3years almost to the day since cotty's thread and we are still saying the same things.

                    On top add one more rank please, for Rich only: the "irish guru".
