Title: profile question Post by: heck on February 17, 2006, 08:01:58 AM I've tried to figure it out and now I am ready to swallow my pride and just ask: where in the profile do you add text that appears under your avatar?

Title: Re: profile question Post by: heck on February 17, 2006, 08:11:21 AM By the whims of our despotic moderators. Aaaah...thought it might be something like that :-D Title: Re: profile question Post by: HaemishM on February 17, 2006, 08:28:12 AM If you don't have a line called "Custom Title" under the "Forum Profile Information" link in your profile page, it's probably something only we can add.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: tazelbain on February 17, 2006, 08:34:54 AM I think the confusion is: we can fill out a field called "Personal Text" but it doesn't show up.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: HaemishM on February 17, 2006, 08:43:31 AM Yeah, don't use that field, use Custom Title if you have it.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Paelos on February 17, 2006, 09:28:29 AM Hey I didn't even know that. Nice.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Nebu on February 17, 2006, 11:35:12 AM Yeah, don't use that field, use Custom Title if you have it. As pond scum, many of us don't have access to that feature.

Title: Re: profile question Post by: Lantyssa on February 17, 2006, 01:47:42 PM Nebu, is your post count new or have I just been unobservant?
Title: Re: profile question Post by: heck on February 17, 2006, 01:55:40 PM If you don't have a line called "Custom Title" under the "Forum Profile Information" link in your profile page, it's probably something only we can add. But I submitted my form to the Ministry of Information years ago! "Harry Tuttle" Title: Re: profile question Post by: Cheddar on February 17, 2006, 02:05:01 PM Here is a tip. Post a incoherent rant lambasting one of the admins here, then claim that you WTFBBQPWNED them. It works!
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Hoax on February 17, 2006, 02:14:01 PM I accidentally gave someone a grief title this week, just do your best and anything can happen! :hello_kitty_2:
Title: Re: profile question Post by: heck on February 17, 2006, 02:36:45 PM I accidentally gave someone a grief title this week, just do your best and anything can happen! :hello_kitty_2: aite! Title: Re: profile question Post by: Nebu on February 17, 2006, 04:17:33 PM Nebu, is your post count new or have I just been unobservant? It is a grief postcount given to me by the people that run the site. I earned it by rabidly stating that I thought postcount was an idiotic concept best appreciated by the mouth-breathers on VN. When they explained the merits of postcount from their view, I had to own up to the fact that I was wrong. Some time later, this postcount was bestowed upon me. Don't ask me when... I think it took one of them telling me for me to even notice. That's the best explanation I have and I'm sticking with it. Title: Re: profile question Post by: Lantyssa on February 17, 2006, 07:32:11 PM Well, it is kind of unique... I was just curious since I did not notice it until this thread talking about custom titles.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Llava on February 17, 2006, 07:38:37 PM My custom title is extremely outdated.
It's accurate, sure, but it's not funny anymore. So it's outdated. Still, I don't do much else. So I guess it's good enough. Title: Re: profile question Post by: Signe on February 17, 2006, 07:47:23 PM Mine is fine. I still didn't do it.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Kenrick on February 18, 2006, 05:46:38 PM Jesus Christ..... is this accurate?

Apparently there's a bug somewhere in the post counting/display code. As of right now his profile is showing 118650 posts but if you look at the forum breakdown that only adds up to around 1200 posts.Quote Posts: I am a geek!!

Ah well that explains it.Title: Re: profile question Post by: RhyssaFireheart on February 19, 2006, 12:25:44 AM So this begs the question - what use does the "Personal Text" field have if it doesn's show up anywhere?
Oh, and I wanted to check to see if my avatar is finally going to start showing up. I can see it in my profile finally. Title: Re: profile question Post by: Samwise on February 19, 2006, 06:56:22 PM So this begs the question - what use does the "Personal Text" field have if it doesn's show up anywhere? It shows up in your profile, under your avatar. Title: Re: profile question Post by: Signe on February 19, 2006, 08:03:27 PM I use it for personal stuff.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Paelos on February 19, 2006, 08:41:56 PM I keep my keys in there.

Do I even need to give a reason? Title: Re: profile question Post by: Paelos on February 19, 2006, 10:17:32 PM I think someone must have hijacked Cheddar's normally happy go lucky persona. Or he's on pills or something.

And someone else on the forums said I am angry and such. Sigh... Why did Schild take the butt away? We all poop. Title: Re: profile question Post by: Paelos on February 19, 2006, 10:33:51 PM It's late and our avatars dancing in a row amuses me.
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Furiously on February 20, 2006, 11:48:58 AM I'm wondering, what percentage of people went to their profile to check to see if they had been magically granted the ability to modify their title....
Title: Re: profile question Post by: Morfiend on February 20, 2006, 12:14:17 PM <---- Still waiting for a grief title about my spelling.

Title: Re: profile question Post by: Signe on February 20, 2006, 06:14:08 PM He must have won the f13 spelling bee and the prise was a grief title and you forgot to give it to him. Shame on you.
