My profile describes me as "Beginner". Is this a default? I'm sure if I'd seen an option I'd have selected "professional" or something similar. I've tried changing this and it's not a filed that comes up under profile editing or settings. When I click "Account Management", I get: "Warning! You are editing your user account, careless changes might lock you out!" But then there is no option to proceed, so I feel as though the warning should just say, "you aren't allowed to edit your account settings. Sucks to be you!" Is there a way to edit this? I've been playing guitar for most of my life and doing it professionally for over 20 years. I got my first Kemper 4 years ago. I'd like to remove "Beginner" from my profile.

Hi, Randy.
My profile describes me as "Beginner". Is this a default? I'm sure if I'd seen an option I'd have selected "professional" or something similar. I've tried changing this and it's not a filed that comes up under profile editing or settings. When I click "Account Management", I get: "Warning! You are editing your user account, careless changes might lock you out!" But then there is no option to proceed, so I feel as though the warning should just say, "you aren't allowed to edit your account settings. Sucks to be you!" Is there a way to edit this?

I'm not an admin here, but I have run other communities. I believe the "Beginner" label is assigned by the community software and that it's based on some algorithm that takes into account the number of posts you have contributed, the likes you have received, points you have earned and perhaps some other metrics that are not readily visible to us. It's probably not something we can change except by participating here.
Cheers,
ST

There's no need to be concerned about interaction issues. Everyone on the Forum started as a "Beginner", so, no one takes the term literally.

Ah, and you're "enlightened", I see. It's cute, that German sense of humor at Kemper.

It's not Kemper AFAIK, Randy, but the board software's default scheme.
You can trust me on this of course 'cause I'm "Enlightened" too, apparently. Also, I started out here at 63kg and don't feel a gramme lighter, so I'm betting the rating's inconsequential.

But it's still some german sense of humor because the forum software manufacturer is a german company as well.

so who's coming up with a funny list of guitar player related ranks? I think we need 5 ranks.

Enlightened would be: talks more forum than playing guitar.
Beginner would be: plays real guitar instead of posting on forums.
Who's coming up with the inbetweenies?

Doesn't bode well for you Ingolf old enlightened buddy! Better play more tennis , though if you're correct, than maybe Knows 3 Chords would describe Enlightened even better HAHA.
My actual list might go something like (from Beginner on up);
1.Working on learning those 3 chords
2.Knows a scale or 2
3.Plays all solos in Pentatonic mode
4.Can play using Nashville numbering system
5. Knows ALL the modes and when to use them!

Hey, guys. I didn't see a solution to account management on a beginner profile. Is is possible to change your account name?
