Quick Question...

You know the text under my Avatar, that says 'Very Active Forum Member', is there any way to change what it says? Be it myself or by a Moderator?

Many thanks in advance.

Interesting question there.

Users can not change it as far as I am aware. Moderators can change it using the admin control tool but only to existing captions. Only Site Admins can create new captions and they don't do that on request but only for good reasons.

To demonstrate this I pulled one of the more bizarre ones out of the library and applied it to your account - it dates from the Dear Diary days way back. I can change you back to the regular caption (ranking) on request.

I would emphasise that the site admins are not taking requests for new captions so please don't bombard them with requests.

Thanks for answering so quick John.

Silent Chickens is much better (and funnier) than what i was thinking so i would like to keep this .

Thanks again John.

Cheers

No problem - if you do want to change it then PM me and I can put you back on the normal captions.

I did use the "Silent Chickens" one for a time last year after the RS launch weekend when most of the regular moderators were off on a show and the forums were positively crackling with posts - a very intense weekend

Personally I dont really see what was wrong with Very Active Forum member. It demonstrates your commitment to the site and the fact that you take an active role. Unless of course, you are trying to play down your involvement

Its misleading though - you could have make loads of posts back in 2002-2003, then left the forums - thats not very active anymore is it!

Or you could be just someone who posts lots of daft questions.....

I can offer 'Pantless Dancer', 'Official Smilie Grinch' or 'Totally narrow minded' if there are any takers... What about 'WantsItDoneToHer WantsItDoneToHer' (and yes, that really is on the list)?

That takes me back

There was a long running thread on silent chickens.

As for Laurie's comment about activity and commitment, I suggest...

Seeking a commitment.

Increasingly committed.

Totally committed.

Ought to be committed
