Sycophanticidal would be good custom name for Diki, assuming he sticks around long enough to earn one.

I repeat my proposal that Alorael be given a custom title consisting of the empty string. To me this seems the only solution.

I'm not quite sure I get it. There must be around ten people with custom titles. Isn't it an honor any which way?

Be aware that I didn't check for all rare "non-custom" titles like Board Administrator etc. Still, it should show that there are quite a lot of custom titles...

For those who didn't know: That is not the title. It was 'La Canaliste', but Saunders account was deleted, and that is why, I imagine, the error occurs.

No -- other titles of non-deleted members (specifically, TGM) contain specially-formatted characters that don't carry over correctly either. It's because everything within CODE tags is interpreted literally instead of being converted to what it represents.

It is part of a pair, with Arctic (#66). They combine the Marathon computer games with the wonderful things the Japanese do with tentacles.

They were correct, until the board got to it. They don't like html tags, I guess.

Also, account #21 is still deleted. It was not when I originally started the database (possibly the only one that was deleted since then and is still gone).

Because only existing profiles are updated, this row is now effectively sitting as a ghost in cyberspace. I decided against deleting it and instead marked it as it is now.

Check the list again... saunders is on there twice. The newer account (5563 on the list) is the one that moderates General.

On topic about publicly displayed names ,how can a name be reserved for a certain member?
I tried changing my name earlier and said a certain member had reserved the name for themselves

Someone used the name recently or it's someone's login name.

—Alorael, who isn't quite sure what recently means. A month, probably.

'Recently' preobably means 'since UBB was founded'. If someone tried to change their name to one of Alo's old monikers (just as an example), they would probably be rejected.

Not true. People have actually swapped publicly displayed names with each other before, so it is possible for different people to use the same name. On the other hand, sometimes people who have changed their names have never been allowed to change back to their old name.

Conclusion: UBB is messed up.

That´s many people do never change their names! :D

You know, why the Sliths are green - because of their scales.

Maybe you know why some slith eyes were once red - ´cause the demons, which led them were red.

But why are the eyes of the Slith Lord Followers red? Because they see the remains of their enemies always before the battle begins!

I've been Arancaytar for an uncountable number of times since I've started changing. Perhaps there is a different cause (someone in the meantime taking a login name like this), or perhaps it only works if the original displayed name is the same as the login name (mine is).

Or perhaps UBB does this randomly, as it does with every other bug.

UBB sure has been taking a real hammering lately...

It's not that bad, is it?

Oh, and I'm covering my ass against any attacks from you Aran, or anyone else with even a smidgen of knowledge about forums - I have none. I single Aran out due to his nasty temperment, and his superior intellect. ( :) ) That is all.

Supa: UBB was responsible for the account deletions of Saunders and Mystery Man last year, amoung others, as I'm sure you know. It probably decided that there were too many members. :rolleyes:

If ubb decides to delete accounts how can we ever hit 7000 members?

Off Topic question: I was looking through the old posts from 2004 and there was someone I didn't recognize named Rosycat ,what ever happened to her?

*jedi gesture*

My signature was always accurate. I did not attribute SupaNik's quote to Ben.

Rosycat left Spiderweb; she last posted over a year ago. She sometimes posts at Polaris, but that was four months ago too.
