It's a rank for all new people, it will change after a certain amount of posts (25?), there is a post with all the ranks and their post requirements somewhere.

If your wondering why, then as the user above posted is correct.

If your wondering why "leecher" was chosen, I believe it has roots to the term that botting communities would give to members who simply came to the community to "leech" off the bot and not contribute to the community at all.

Its not really a bad thing, it just means you have to pay some dues first ; )

LIke he said, when you earn 25 post you will become a "member" and the higher your post is the new ranks you get
