I got to carrier without having any knowledge/interest of how many posts to the next icon. I suggest you do the same (well you don't have to get to carrier)

Fine with me. If it ever changes again in the future it will probably be for the worse.

I think its the amount you've posted along with the amount of time you've been with TL

Or something like that.

It is pretty easy to figure out if you just go through some threads and look at how many posts people have and what icon they have.
