Are You Tired of Your User Title?
 

How many of you have noticed that the designations "Junior Member" and "Senior Member" are pretty much meaningless? Pete and I have had a little bit of fun with user titles for a couple of members, and we decided that others should have that option.

Neither of us have the time to go into the user profile on all accounts to grant permission to change the user title, but we will do what we can to get around to responding to individual requests for that option. Just post your request on this thread, and we will get to it. Once you have made the request, we will change your profile to allow you to change the title yourself. That way you are not stuck with a bad choice.

Please do not send PMs to make this request. My mailbox is nearly full and I don't have time to clean it out right now.

I will take "Intellectual Masturbationist."

You now have the permission to take whatever pleasure you like in your title. You have to take the matter into your own hands, however. :D (Go to your user profile.)

Great, now I'm not gonna be a eunu.., uh, unique anymore.

Egalitarianism has its cost. :cool:

Fix me, master.

Egalitarianism! Have you been reading the same posts I have. Maybe everyone is a prince and a douchebag all at the same time. :D

How exactly does one fix the line under the avatar. I can't find any button that will do it.

I'll bite. Access requested.

I would like to change it as well.

Have not thought about what would go there though. But I'm in no hurry to be senior anything.

It'll be under 'edit details' once the barrister get's 'er done.

Oh, jeez. He's probably gonna bill me for 2-3 hours.

OK you three. Go to your forum profile and you should be able to change your designation.

D-Ray

Exactly which buttons do I click. I still can't find it.

And you call yourself an engineer. ;)

Go to your user profile. There are three links under your user name. One of those is "edit user profile." That will take you to a page where you should be able to change your user title. I hope that you can do it without being an admin. My billing rate goes up if I have to exercise my super powers. :cool:

There is no button called "edit user profile." The "edit details" doesn't do it.

Agreed

I get to the control panel and see all sorts of edit options but nothing for

User Title

I would think it would be under edit options

It might take a while for the software to process changes to the permissions. Give it a day or so, and if it doesn't work, Pete and I will make the requested changes.

I compared it to AK and here on PC the Custom Title doesn't (yet) exist under "edit your details"

When I edited the user profiles on the admin page, the option I chose for Custom Title was "Yes, allow user" Maybe VBulletin works as slowly as Congress.

Thanks you're probably right on it being slow.

Ill try shutting down the computer and see if that sets it fo me.

Good idea. I also want to change it. I will take "Junior Member". :D

Yeah, I want one that says administrator. :p

'Resident octogenerian' would probably fit.:)

Rob, I thought that you would want to be "Junior Member." ;)

Regards,

D-Ray

I think that you would be a fine figurehead Noone. ;)

D-Ray

My spirit may still be young but the body says 'who are you kidding?':)

Permissions have been entered for all who have requested. It might take a day or two for the change to take effect. As to why that is, I know no more than Sgt. Shultz.

D-Ray

Count me in too please.

Me too! Me too!

It still isn't working. I'm thinking the mod's deserve a pay cut.;)

Me too!

It's under 'edit your details'. If it doesn't show post saying so, please.

Pete

Btw do NOT click the 'reset' box next to it.

Pete

Btw kudos to the D man for setting this up!

Pete

Not showing for me.

It's not the first thing after 'edit email and password'?

If not post here and I'll add it.

Or I'll just make something up :p

Pete

Not for me... :(

Try it now please?

Pete

If preferred, send me a PM with your title of choice. I don't want my pay cut!

Pete
