Astro_Al Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Since we're asking - when you open a post and there are the list of names at the bottom of members who are currently viewing that thread, sometimes one or two are kind of bold and dotted underlined - what's that all about?

Les Henson Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Oooh!Ta. Al. Is that a gay reply? Not that I have gay 'issues', you understand. It just seemed that your reply was a tad 'pink', not that pink is in any way a gay comment, or indeed insulting in any way to anyone that might be restricted in the testosterone dept, you understand.

Doyley Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Do not bother to read this. It is just so I can see how many squares I have.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Goon Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I've probably got none at all - let's have a look......... Two! H'mmm how did that happen. Still I suppose it proves that it is not a 'number of mates' counter - I have never had that many! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimeBandit Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Hmmm....I'm curious now, never noticed 'em before...then again I probably don't come here often enough to warrant any? Ahhh...two squares...but is this good or is it bad...?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Those of us that have far too much to say have the maximum of three. I don't know what they are for, or indeed how you earn them. If they are post count related, then it's a bit uneven, as DrGoon who has 38 posts, has 2 squares, and I have 3 squares and 2,500+ posts. Perhaps when Trev or Geoff get their lazy backsides out of bed/sober up/get back from the 'clinic' - they might enlighten us all. I mean - what do they get paid for ? Les.

LR90 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 The pips? OK Newbies get one for free Members (20 posts) get two and Old Hands get three (100 posts). At 500 posts you can choose your own title. Unless Geoff knows different I think they are forum defaults. We do have a three strikes and your out type conter as well but we thought the members on here were far to nice to warrant implementing such measures Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 Thanks Trev. Simple enough but not very useful. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troddenmasses Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 The pips? OK Newbies get one for free Members (20 posts) get two and Old Hands get three (100 posts). If you click on 'members' at the top of the page, and then sort them 'all members' by 'total posts' in 'decending order' you get to see which of us has the most to say. You seem to get 3 squares when you have 200 posts. As I have only made 160 posts, I have 2 squares. Only 40 to go then..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoffbeaumont Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Thanks Trev. Simple enough but not very useful. Chris Which is why we've never bothered to change them from the forum default As Les says, I'm far too lazy to go and check, but I think they're related to post count only, nothing to do with the group you're in (except that that just happens to change automatically at the same number of posts you gain the second pip).
