I doubt your even a newbie at all. All of a sudden, your all good with using certain forum features like the colors to raise concern. I won't extend it to emoji because it's actually nothing but again, your account was created on the 28th of January and you've got just 3 posts thus far. How then will you be focused on ranking up when you've made far less contribution to the forum? Even at that, your activity series has not gotten anywhere and its going to take at least a month to get the activities needed to be a Jr. member should you be very active which you are apparently not for now but then, as much as reading is good, you've got to make your views known by contributing.
