All About TCS Usergroups (The title under your username)

The most frequently-asked questions often involve TCS usergroups. I am posting this sticky to clear up what each of our usergroups entitles members to and when you attain each promotion.

Be advised that your title will change when you attain the number of posts, but full access to the perks will not come if you are not in membership the minimum numbers of days for the usergroup level.

NOTE: Wherever you see "and", you must meet both conditions before you receive the usergroup title printed above it.
