Ah, well either way I still don't think my shitty discussion is a good place to link. I did link to the guide that covers what the term meanings according to the sites owner, and quoted it. Generally, it's more or less based on experience and that is, as with post length and any other rating in paragraph RPing, rather subjective. *shrugs*

I figure why worry about it really, if you think you're a certain whatever . . . and you meet the requirements set by the game host . . . then why sweat it.

See, unlike you I think I'm advance because I've been at it for 13 years . . . I know a thing or two and can do just about anything any RP requires me to do . . . so I don't much worry about rating myself, I can do anything! >D
