    Default Custom Titles Are Back!

    Hello everyone,

    With immediate effect, all members are granted a Custom User Title! That's the little bit of writing below your user name.

    To add your own:

    User CP* > Edit Profile > Optional Information > Custom User Title

    *your user control panel can be found at the top left of this page, on the black menu.

    Have fun with yours, but please remember our forum code of conduct - any offensive words/phrases used will result in the removal of your custom title.

    Ta much,
    Phillip Madeley
    Technical Admin for Planet Skaro

    As a footnote, the text 'Registered User' below your custom title will be changed to a graphic similar to those Mods and Admins have, from Monday. This is because we think the custom title kinda gets lost with the other text there.

    *sharp intake of breath*

    That's a copyrighted image in your avatar, Mr Lethbridge-Stewart! I demand royalty payments at once!



    PS I Really think you should change your custom title to "Snap, Crackle & Pop".

    Ahh, but I seem to recall that the excellent production that was 'Doctor Who - The Tamaras Crisis' (Copyright 1990) was actually made by CVP - Clancy Video Productions (productions), so that must mean that I have some ownership of the said footage - especially seeing as I'm in it. I was acting my socks off there and all you were doing was standing there nearly wearing a sheet!!!!

    Will the graphic be representing a new ranking system, or are we destined to be flashy looking 'registered users' for the rest of our on-line lives?

    It'll be one bar (mods have two, admins three) and the word "Member" or something. Or perhaps "Skarovian". Who knows.

    Can I have more than 25 characters please?
    There should be enough space in post header for that.

    Please God let us not be known as 'Skarovians'. It makes us sound like Doctor Who fans.

    We think that 25 characters is long enough for custom titles Phil, so we're going to leave things as they are. You'll just have to rack your brains to come up with something snappier

    It's amusing that after all that uproar, very few have actually taken advantage of the custom titles...

    Well I count 18 people having taken it up so far, so I suppose it's how you define "very few"?

    89 active members, 18 people. So yeah, a few to go yet.
