Apprentice

Apprentice is the first rank on the LMBs. It takes 1 post to get to it.

There are hundreds of thousands of Apprentices, and most start out with a SPAM post on a random topic, although some start with a bang. Others might also have started out by posting a topic, though these are usually left empty and are soon forgotten, or occasionally rejected to the misunderstandment of the Apprentice. This occurs particularly often in the LU Forum. Also, some apprentices are parents that create an account to ask a question, usually about building instructions or sets, then abandon the account afterwards. This occurs mostly in the Parents Forum.

Most apprentices come, then leave a couple days later, sadly. For this reason, there is a topic called How to Get Newbies to Stay so we can make Apprentices stick with us here on the MBs. A topic called "Adopt a Newbie" was also made, where experienced users can try to teach Newbies the basics of the MBs.

There aren't many Apprentices in HQs, and there aren't many active Apprentices, so this is the only rank that doesn't make you double your post amount to get to. This is also the rank most people have on the LMBs.

Also, Apprentices cannot be as active as any users with higher ranks, for they reach Journeyman very quickly, then.
