Looking for the right hook

   I am fleshing out my plugin Graphic-display-ranks and I'm looking for the right hook to use to do the following:

   I want to find out if a topic author is the Key Master or a moderator. Here is what I have so far --

   function get_special_rank () {
global $special_rank, $use_special_rank, $bbdb;

   if ($use_special_rank==1)
   {$title_for_rank=<strong>I NEED THIS HOOK</strong>( get_post_author_id() );
   switch ($title_for_rank) {
   case "keymaster" :
   $special_rank=1;
   break;
   case "moderator" :
   $special_rank=2;
   break;
   default :
   $special_rank=0;
   }
   }
   else
   {
   $special_rank = 0;
   }
   return $special_rank;

   }

   Can anyone point me in the right directon?

   I don't think you want a hook, you want get_user_type($id)

   That's got it. Thanks. I'll be uploading the updated version in a few minutes.
