Newbie Member (gray) Group to Junior Member (blue) Group

Hello, can you help me with my problem in group colors and post counts? I`m using Phpbb2 Forum. I`ve already done some settings in terms of group colors and minimum post counts.

Users & Groups >> User Options >> Colorize Usernames >> Yes.

Then I`ve created a default group.
Group Title: Newbie
Color: Gray
Color Group Members: Yes
Group Status: Closed
Auto Subscribe: Yes (minimum post of 0)

Then also I`ve created a 2nd group.
Group Title: Junior Member
Color: Blue
Color Group Members: Yes
Group Status: Closed
Auto Subscribe: Yes (minimum post of 1)

I`ve done also setting the Rank Administration on 2 groups i`ve created.
Rank Title: Newbie
Set Special: No (minimum post of 0)

Rank Title: Junior Member
Set Special: No (minimum post of 1)

Specific Problem Example: Newbie Member (gray) to Junior Member (blue)
-Here`s my problem, a new registered member in my forum (gray username) posted in Introduction Section. So his post count was counted as +1, and basically he would turn his gray username into blue as a Junior Member (1 post count). But nothing happens, he stayed in gray color username. And there seems to be no problem in his Rank Title because it was changed into Junior Member automatically. Only that he stayed as a gray colored usename. I`m expecting that my new users will change their group color after making a post in Introduction Section automatically.

Can someone please help me with this problem? hope i can get a solution for this one.

Is the Junior Member group first in the order of groups? I mean is it before the Newbie group.

The First is the Administrator Group.
Second, Newbie
Third, Junior

Change it this way:

Second - Junior Member

Third - Newbie

Do I have to change also the orders in Rank Administration or just in the Group Administraton?

And in other words, the higher the minimum post count needed the higher order it would be?

Just the order of the groups needs to be changed, not the ranks. Groups that have a high post count requirements need to go before the less post count requirements groups.
