It should be pretty consistent (if not let me know where you see them in or not in italics)

Folks who have (been around 2 years OR have 75+ reputation) and (contributed 200+ posts) are granted BP Veteran status. The payoff is meager I am afraid - just gives you a bit more space in your gallery and allows for storage of more PM's. It seemed like the least we could do to recognize long-time members and people who have made a significant contribution.

In the near future we will revisit this and possibly add other options as well!
