Do I have a title?

Edit: Yes, it's "member." Ugh, trying not to think about it...

If you like... but custom titles are not at the top of the to-do list, believe me.

Thank you Maeglamor for giving me back my title! You are the best staff member a person could have, especially considering your also HLP staff.

Sorry Bob, I'm afraid the one thing we're definitely not doing is custom avatars at this stage.

Have you decided whether avatars are going to be just for hosted staff etc or not?

We're still looking at it - it depends what we can do with the avatars I think. The main problem is that many people work on different hosted site projects and need two, sometimes three avatars. At this stage we can only give people one each (I think) and can't hyperlink the images to the sites.

Time will tell :)

I was thinking of doing that with my avatars, but it's not really a good solution in the long run.

Why?  Explain your logic.


Well.... I guess i just don't like the change. UBB is my favorite type of billboard. Yes i do see you can do some better things with vBulletin. If you guys want to have vBulletin, i won't fight you. But, can you guys please change my title back to Senior Member or Valued Member?
I'll think of a siggie later..

Titles re-arranged, a few more added and generally (IMO) improved.
