If you go to your User Control Panel, there is a section called "Public Usergroups". Different usergroups have different symbols. I think the gavels is a generic for Registered Users, but I am not going to swear to that. You can change your groups and see how it affects they symbol. Number of symbols indicates number of posts, not sure at what rate.

numbers with K after them,

ANy other specific items feel free to ask.

Also, what determines when the "title" under my name changes? Length of time on DP?

I think that is also tied to post count. I think once you have a certain number of posts you can make your own title by going to User Control Panel, Edit Profile, and Custom User Title.

Did all that make sense? Sometimes I am not as clear as I want to be.

"It's not my fault!" Sound familiar? I'm a victim of my own curious nature, AP! It was ever thus, but that's how I learn. Why can't humans have nine lives like cats supposedly do? At least now I often find myself saying "I don't want to hear it!" I don't always mean it, but I have said it! :lamo:

Very helpful and informative, Redress! :thanks:
 
As an FYI, we should have the award system re-activated some time tomorrow. Everyone's awards (except for Redress') will reappear.

When you have a life and a job, sometimes it really does and things have to get put off a little bit. I think most of us will manage to not make snide comments towards people who do extra to keep the board running...

Do you think your brown nosing :kissass response will get your awards reinstated ?
 
We are still looking into the code for the awards system. It might be benign, but there are concerns of a major security loophole.

To be honest, I haven't had/taken the time to give it the attention it needs.
 
So is this one of those things that'll be reimplemented or will it just drop off the radar?

We hope that there is no security issue and then we can turn it back on...

Where's my "Coolest Football Team Fan" award?

I'm guessing that the liberals all pushed for "award equality" so management just did away with all awards to make everyone even.

96% of the Awards went to the top 1% while the rest of us struggle to get by on Award Stamps. Class Wardfare rears it's ugly head.
