Seeing as how it would take most people a year to reach 50 posts on the old forum, I think that the first milestone should be 20 posts (or at least something smaller). After that, I would suggest the next milestone to be 100 and then 200.

Possible sequence: Rookie, Vetran, First-a-holic

Based on the experiences I have had at other forums, getting that custom message is quite a milestone, enough that it causes people to post too much.
I've seen the same thing happen on forums I frequent...so much so that often the admin has just let everyone have a custom title from the moment of registration. It helps solve the issue of "title-envy". Though if you want to do the graduated system with post number, I'd have to say I think Joe's ideas are the best.
