Why am I a Tadpole?

[+Big Red Viking]

Please pardon my ignorance...but underneath my avatar is the word 'tadpole'. Others have 'geaocacher' while at least one has 'none of the above'. What generates this and can I change it? Not that I have anything against tadpoles, mind you...I'm just not sure I want to be one.

Well now I really feel stupid...'cause now it seems I'm a geocacher...(ssiiiiigghhh)

Congratulations on making your tenth post, which is where you transform from tadpole to geocacher.

 

Aren't you glad that "Pollywog" status was done away with during a recent site upgrade?

You're post graduated you from tadpole to geocacher. A tadpole is someone with less than 10 posts, it is in honor of Signal the Frog, the geocaching masket graduated from tadpole to a mature frog.

 

Welcome to the boards

THANKS! And after the explanation, it seems being a tadpole isn't really so bad after all. (but I'm still glad I've graduated.)
