Mr. Wooler:
I am referred to as a "newbie visitor" in my forum posting at your site. Although this is not so serious a matter that I plan to seek out a shrink to help me get over this, I have not been able to discern from your “notes for new readers topic” how to graduate to a “newbie rookie” and even (some day) a regular use or groupie or enthusiast. ( It seem to me that groupies are enthusiasts.)
My query is prompted by admiring your site for several weeks and I may wish to avail myself of other useful functions it provides.

Look at that - by posing that question your 'rank' changed - you're new a "myTobago Rookie" rather than a "Newbie Visitor".
The ranking system is just a bit of fun. There are eight ranks, determined by the number of posts the user has made to the forum. It would spoil the fun to tell you what they all are and when the different ranks are triggered.
Enjoy

The squeeky wheel gets the oil. Boy do I feel better that I allredy have been promoted from "rookie". I had the felling I might be knocking my head at the door of a stratified organization. That's the reason I never joined the priesthood. I doubted I could make it to Pope or Archbishop of Canteberry.
I just answered your email.

Wasn't Mr McGoo a cartoon character? - In Bugs Bunny or something,

You got that correct. Do you still have that cultural export "Who wants to be a Millionaire? Perhaps you should apply to be a contestant.
On second thought, McGoo is a full and complete username. Malc C could confuse the show's host.
Ms Robinson (not Stanley) I believe. Hope it's in syndication when I am in Tobago.
Mcgoo and Bugs

I would just like to set the record straight that Mr. McGoo was not related nor did he share billing with Bugs Bunny(that was Daffy). Well some of us are purists. This just goes to show that not ALL public education is wasted!
Bye for now.
Cliff
PS- does this go towards pulling me out of rookie rating?
Mcgoo & Bugs - absolutely nothing to do with Tobago !!

Cliffordtc,
Sorry but wasn't Mr Mcgoo the character that used to chase after that "pesky wabbit" with a shot gun ??

That was Elmer Fudd. He was always chasing the "wascawy wabbit"
Mr. Mcgoo was a British Gent who could not see well without his glasses.
