Hi yowsa,

 

It's the ranking system in our Forums.

 

We use an academic theme for the ranking structure in our community. 

 

You rank is right by your Forum name in your posts.

 

Ranks represent the contribution that a member has made to the community.  As you spend more time on the Forum, engage in positive conversations, and help other members, you will move up in rank.

They're rankings designating your level of participation in the forum. I don't see a list of the rankings anywhere, but I guess you'll find what's next eventually!
