They're not just badges of honor; they signify your journey, progress, and commitment to enriching the collective experience. By participating actively, you not only elevate your own standing but also contribute to the vibrancy and diversity of our community ecosystem.

These are the dedicated members who have been with us since the inception of RV.net, laying the foundation for the vibrant community we have today. To honor their enduring commitment and contributions, we've introduced a special icon—the green star—that will accompany their rank. Whenever you see this star next to a user's name, know that you're in the presence of someone who has been an integral part of our community since the early days of RV.net. If you do not see this associated with your account and you believe you should please send a note to TeamGoodSam or Community Alumni.

Hey AnEv942, Happy to provide some context here. Originally we did not plan to have a Truck Camper Group and migrated all its content over to Travel Trailers. However, once the community went live and we heard all of our RV.net alumni say they needed their Truck Camper Group back, we went to work! Unfortunately, this means that all of the content was still in the Travel Trailers Group from the original migration. We are working in the background to manually move this content but there are thousands of posts. This is going to take us a while so in the meantime please bear with us. Let us know if you have any other questions for us. We are here to help make this the best possible community.Re: Old system to new
