I am still pretty new to using Waypoint on PC. I had ten posts, which should qualify for recruit-silver but it displays recruit-bronze, yet my next milestone is still 25 posts.
Technically Recruit Silver doesn’t exist anymore. There was an update to ranks a while back to limit new accounts to 5 posts per day, in an attempt to prevent mass spamming by bots. A side effects seems to have removed the trigger for reaching Silver. Your next rank up will be Gold and everything should be cool after that 
Thank you very much, that makes way more sense.
