I don't want to get any more rep, because I like being a "splendid one to behold".

If you're a supporter, you can customize your user title to be whatever you like.

Gidday!

(Sorry, just thought I would say hello to a fellow Aussie!), I see you are from Ardlethan... I used to live just outside Shepparton.
Are you on a farm up there?

Adrian,
I think that supposed to be "Gidday Mate". Or at least that's the way Dundee said it on TV or is that Tellie.

FTE will 'default' the title to wherever you are in post count.....When you get into the thousands, it'll default to 'post fiend', or 'post guru', or 'posting legend', or whatever.

If you are a non-supporter, you are stuck with whatever they hand you. If you are a supporter (such as you), you can put whatever you want as that tagline (i.e. 'dune-demon', or 'mud-hawg', or whatever...) to replace the FTE tag (or you can choose to keep it).

I'm not sure what the 'numbers' are.....but 'new user' is under 25, i think.....'junior user' is 25 to 100......'senior user' is over 100 and under 500......After that I forget....

Some users, based on seniority (posts), or rep-level, whatever, can give another member more than one point (2, or 3, or 4.....or higher)......The admins give about 25 points every time they touch you with the wand, and the Grand Poo-bah, FTE-Ken, gives you 50 'hit points' (any D&D fans here?...) when you get smacked by him......Hopefully with a 'positive' rep.

What about the coment when you put the curser on the green boxes of another user. Is that in line with how many reps you have also. I have seen some with the same number boxes and different sayings.

The comment you are referring to changes when you are halfway to the next green box.

No wonder you have so many chicklets in your corner. I've been here for a while longer and didn't know all that, but then again, there's a lot of stuff I don't know. Don't believe me? Just ask.

Mine says (miller_feed is a name known to all) That is not very encouraging, at all, after this thread.

Some of us charge at 'rep' threads like a bull charging a red flag.....It's like some sort of sick reflex or something.....

When you've scanned through a few of them, you pick up a lot of stuff about the rep system.

Be content to be considered 'Great'......After all, you've got 'Peter the Great', and 'Catherine the Great', and the 'Great Pumpkin'.....You're in 'great' company......
