You are a Vet if you came in August. (You came in September so you ain't a Vet.

It'd be better if a user has been active for a certain number of months until he/she is considered a veteran (that's just a lot more fair, makes for more veterans in the future, rather than the current trend of less). Judging by how August is right now the veteran time, how about... five months to be a vet?

hmm good question....i think a good way to resolve who's a vet would be in percentages....if a player has been here longer than 80% of the games life span...then he or she is a Veteran...any one who's been here more than 90% of the games life span might be considered a "Super Veteran" (or mucho loco :biggrin: ) and i guess that would be the fairest way to decide who's a veteran and who isnt....(if any one can think of a more accurate way of defining a Vet please post it here)

well since there is no other way to tell how long some one has been with the group except by their forum join date...that would unfortunatly place you as a noob.
But you know the real truth so i guess it wouldnt matter what others thought...you'd just have a hard time convincing people other wise with out some known Vets vouching for you.

Well, according to nosoul4evr's idea of being around for 80% of the game's life span...
<span style='font-size:8pt;line-height:100%'>Dan does some number crunching.</span>
You should be a veteran. Currently, you need to have been around for 4.8 months to be considered a veteran, and seeing as you joined in September, it makes sense. Then again, people aren't forced to conform to this idea...

Does it matter to anyone if your a Noob or a Vet

The thing that matters is the respect (or lack of respect) that comes with the title. Newbies are generally looked down upon, and vets are looked up to. It is a general idea of popularity based on seniority.
