a Guru question

hope this isnt a foolish question, but under our names, we have those ranks, i think they get promoted by the amount of posts we post.

for ex im academy page, but i seen so many others. whats the whole idea on that? how long does it take to advance, and how do we check how many posts we've posted?

It's the number of posts you have:

0 - 9: Pre Searing Cadet
10 - 49: Ascalon Squire
50 - 99: Academy Page
100 - 199: Frost Gate Guardian
200 - 299: Lions Arch Merchant
300 - 499: Krytan Explorer
500 - 749: Wilds Pathfinder
750 - 999: Jungle Guide
1000 - 1499: Desert Nomad
1500 - 2249: Forge Runner
2250 - 3249: Furnace Stoker
3250 - 4449: Grotto Attendant
4500 - 5999: Hell Protector
6000 - 7749: Halls Hero
7750 - 9749: Underworld Spelunker

Edit: Forgot to mention that you find your own post count under the statistics tab when you click on your own user name.

In the future please use search. As you can see from pamelf's post, the info is right here.
