Sorry to ask the ultimate in stupid questions but what are the little icons in the upper right hand corner beside the number of your post? I'm just kinda curious if
I had done something wrong as I had never noticed them before. :o

how come all the other high-volume posters have cool names, and I'm just a registered user?

:confused:

About 2 or 3 forum upgrades ago, I believe you got different descriptions based on your number of posts. I think under 30 posts meant you were a "new member"; between 30-1000 (i think) you were a "registered user", and above 1000 made you a grizzled veteran.

The urge was too strong to resist! :D

Anybody remember the guy who had that really big ego, but didn't understand scales and asked for our help (and I whaled on his ass), and then he said "Dudes, I'm going on tour" ? What was his name again?...Oh yes, Metalic Dude. Even Lordathestrings couldn't help but remind him how bad his grammer and spelling was!

I don't post around here as much as I used to, but that would be really sweet if I could get it so instead of "registered user" it'd say "Registered Abuser". That would be amazing.

I remember that thread keeping me entertained all last summer. Didn't you used to get into it with some "griphon" dude too? If I recall correctly it'd always happen in the theory forum. :)

It'd be nice if there were some sort of "namesake reward" hooked to your number of posts, but then the temptation would be there for less-hallowed individuals to incessantly post crap just to crank up their post number. What do you guys think?

Gryphon dude................

Hm. I don't know, I was a really angry individual a year ago, I know that for sure. Must've been the Vonnegut/Joyce/Tolstoy rhetoric!
