Funny.  Yeah, I don't care what badge I have.  After all, I am The Mighty Konrad.  I was just curious because I am pretty active so these dudes who are platinum must have been giving advice on this forum since Eisenhower was in office.

 
Simples just +1 every post you visit or -1 if you disagree, go down to the CH and chat about nothing but reply to every reply you get then in a matter of weeks you will be a platypus.
 
Or alternately you could spend more time making music then display your talents in the SONGS forum and reply to every reply, comment on every song and again you will be a platypus in no time.
 
Just remember post count means nothing it just shows how much time you spend not making music.

Not the case with the famous BAPU..... he rose to fame rather quickly ...... 

Konrad: It's sure not based on who won awards in the music bizz !

One day a while ago I was suddenly silver.

The same thing happened to me!!!
 
Although it was more of a grey color rather than silver.

Then I am to assume that your picture is not of recent?

I think at 500 posts you get to silver.
 
 

I can hardly remember that far back
(I mean it was only just last month.... sheesh I'm old)

It might be a better system if the 'helpful post" label applied to the rating system. Platinum status is awarded to most helpful members etc...

Uh-oh, my secret's out. Yeh, that photo is about 15 years old. I'm not trying to misrepresent myself, though - ever since I was bitten by a bat in eastern Europe I no longer show up in mirrors or photographs.
