What do the titles on punatalk mean? - hawaiideborah - 11-23-2010
YES, I am a "Newbee".
I am wondering what the other titles used on Punatalk mean?
I have seen "Kamaaina", "malihini", "Da Kine", "Punatic"
When do I stop being a "Newbee" ?
THANKS for any insights.

It is a ranking on members number of posts...
Newbie 0 - 50 posts
Malihini 51 - 100
Da Kine 101 - 500
Kamaaina 501 - 1000
Punatic over 1000
Assume the best and ask questions.

They are relative to how many posts one has made.

Mine means that I talk a lot. It means nothing as to whether I am a real Punatic (I'm not) or anything about whether I'm local or not.
It is much easier to get past newbie status on Punaweb than on the island. You can be here twenty years and you're still a transplant as far as the locals feel, but if you've been here more than say five years, they might not treat you as a malihini. It depends on how much you pick up the customs and mannerisms.
Some people move here and don't assimilate at all, especially on the Kona side.

I've seen a white truck with"Punatic" bumper sticker.
And "Punaweb" also.
So if you post enough you get the sticker?
RE: What do the titles on punatalk mean? - Rob Tucker - 11-24-2010
I have free Punaweb bumper stickers for anyone that wants one. Come on by.
I don't know where the Punatic stickers come from.

Wish I could afford the potential postage. Tell you what.
Donate a dollar to Punaweb and I will send you two.
