At what point do you stop considering a person on Fluther a newbie?

Is it when they have a certain amount of lurve? Is it when they have been here for a certain amount of time? Is it when they have asked or answered a certain amount of questions? Maybe it’s the quality of the questions and answers that seperate the newcomers from the old timers?

Usually for me it is when they have reached about 1000 lurve. This has nothing to do with status or anything that pretentious it just means, in my mind, that they probably plan to stick around. Other indications of this are quality of questions and answers and their avatar picture. It may sound weird but if I see one of the default jellyfish avatars I usually assume they are fairly new before I have bothered to look at the name. This isn’t always a good indication of whether they are new obviously but most of the regular old timers have personal avatars.

What, in you mind, seperates the newcomers from the veterans?
