Custom labels necessary?

I don't care what the other kids say, you're all right.

I would have made it teal, but I'm slightly color blind, and not sure what teal is.

/facepalm

Beats me. If there is, I don't appear to be a member.

I'm thinking custom banners are more trouble than they are worth UNLESS there is a way to let people edit their own.

Then they'll just be tacky.

And really, we already have custom titles. Do we really need the banners as well?

Why staff member and moderator? Why not just moderator?

I sort of like the 'writer' tag. Makes me feel all important and special, like a monkey that just found a screwdriver.

It looks like the banners are tied to custom user groups, so I guess any banners would have to be implemented by TPTB?

I agree with Anc, it's a fun novelty feature. If it brings too much hassle for the admins or too much grief, it can go away. (It might be fun to trot a few out for major holidays or events in the future.)

I set up the 'Writer' tag, as a way to familiarize myself with the group settings. It's (the Writer tag) not meant to be permanent. Figured I'd highlight those of us who are writers, published or otherwise while I learn the settings.
(And I think I missed a couple... sorry you didn't make yet another list )

So, no, @Zombie, it's not the new owners thinking they could do what they please with members' accounts

As being discussed, while a cute gimmick, I don't think we really need the extra tags below our AVs.

Really? People are complaining about the custom title banners?

Whatever it takes, right? I think they're a good chance to inject some occasional humor in to things, but oh well.

Anime fag would work for captain x.

Has anyone else mentioned that your sig is positively mesmerizing?

Have to completely agree with this. It's out and out favouritism.

Has your request for one been denied?

You really want a 'LawyerForge' tag?

Explain to me how it's favouritism when I'm just using it to figure out an admin tool? Remember -- this isn't any of the owners playing EliteForge, it's me getting used to new features.

John Castle's considered one of the 'cool kids'? Why didn't I get the memo?

Not really.

Perhaps favouritism isn't the right word, but it's just another thing that is divisive as it sets certain people apart from the rest.

What makes you think I'd want one?

That's a better argument.

What makes you think one wouldn't be given if someone asked for one? It's a trivial feature that people are playing with as they explore the new software. I'm having trouble seeing why you're as hung up on it as Volpone is about negreps.

Weellll....

Dunno if anyone is reading but by god i wrote, damnit.

(Although, I might rather have a label that says "sex kitten" on the whole)

I've read it. Have it on my Kindle, I do.

I too have read it on my Kindle. And how dare Bick not place you in his writers group! Eliteforge! Of the worst kind!

Down with the current Administration!

So did I lose my nifty Starscape member label due to garamet's butthurt? Because that'd make this even lamer.

No, you're still a member, I just removed the "Starscape Member" banners that go with it. That's for everyone, though. I felt that the profile panels were getting too congested.

Yes, down with Bick!

Wait

I did put in a disclaimer that I was missing a few from the group

There, Nova's now a writer. Please note that the group may turn out to be temporary.
