May 2018 Forum Update

Anybody know what the green top left corner cap (green on mine I think) means?

It means you're online.

If you chose the "invisible" option, only you can see you are online but when you see others with green caps that means they are online and not invisible.

For example, I cannot see your green cap. I can see others who are online though.

We had several spammers here not too long ago (before the forum updates) who all achieved senior status in one night of spam postings, so I guess it shouldn't be too surprising that prolific posters of drivel can become senior members, as well.

They could increase the post count used to classify seniors. I’m sure some spammers would still fulfill the requirement so maybe something like 40,000 or so should keep most spammers below the requisite number.

I'd agree to 30,000.

Oh so if you choose the invisible mode, it still tells me I’m online. I suppose some days that might be beneficial. Some days I don’t know I’m actually online here.

Hmmm... I received no such email. I don't know what to make of that.

It must means you're unerringly polite, succinct and post zero snark.

Unlike me.

I got that email but don’t have senior special privileges though. It’s been a long time since I got my hand slapped, although I have been viewed as snarky a bit since then. Maybe only the trouble makers got the letter

 

[adjusterjack]

I argue a bit with some of you (you know who - LOL) but I'm not sure I'd be considered a trouble maker, though I expect that remark to elicit claims that I am one.

 

[justalayman]

I believe it’s more of when the regulars address newer members and most likely if said replies are reported.

AJ? Argue? With other members? Why, who'da thunk it?

 

[Taxing Matters]

I'm not even a senior member yet, so no avatars or super special secret forums for me.

You should be a senior member. You have more than 1000 posts

 

[FlyingRon]

Woohoo....works for me now.

 

[admin300]

I still don't have an avatar.

OK Beloved & Highly-Respected Admin Gods (referred to hereafter as B&HRAG), I have a couple of questions:

1. How do I make myself an avatar, and
2. Why am I not allowed on the Senior Members' Forum (given that many members on this forum have less seniority than I do)?

Thank you, I will be eternally grateful if you can answer these questions.

You should have access to both features now.

You should be able to upload one now.
