God Joe, lighten up on the guy. I don't think mparker is saying anything negative about ANY post count related rank or whatever you mods and admins decide to call them. He's simply asking that those folks who DO actually offer professional honing services have something that easily identifies them as such and pointing out the fact that the term "honemeister" does, in fact, appear to imply just that.

I've got to agree with the original post. Is someone's rank going to bring about the Apocalypse? No, of course not but how hard would it be to have something ... anything ... that would easily identify those folks who offer such a critical service to those of us just getting started with straights? Doesn't have to be a rank as such - maybe a different color to their screen names, some sort of icon by their names - just about any notation would work. It's all about helping folks make that first shaving experience a good one.
