It's number of posts, I think. I hit Faction Team Member just before I got to 200 posts. It goes Newbie, Junior Member, Senior Member (at 100 posts), and then Faction Team Member, I think.It seems like I've been a Faction Newbie for a while (OK...only a few weeks), so I was curious as to what is needed to become a Faction Team Member. Is the classification based on number of posts or other criteria?
