Post more often. There are milestones that you need to reach in order to get each rank increase (so a different beverage). After X many posts you become Decaf, then Caffeinated, then Espresso Shot, then Double Shot, then Latte, then Mocha, and so on.* The fancier the drink, the more established the member. *I might have missed some or have them in the wrong order but you get the idea.

someDay 16 Report post Posted February 25, 2010 At which point do you become one of those Skinny-Cappucino-Strawberry-Frappucino-Latte with extra Caramel syrup my girlfriend loves to drink? Am I the only one who feels like a fool when they have to order at Starbucks? And why is Starbucks coffee in the States EVEN bigger and sweeter than on the other side of the pond? sD. 2 DBear and atlremix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarah S. 5 Report post Posted February 27, 2010 I miss coffee. I stopped drinking it awhile back. This was only a good decision because if I were caffeinated, I'd be just as obsessed with grad school results...but more hyper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
