Too many heroes
« on: November 13, 2010, 12:21:02 PM »
  Ken . .
    In the light of our forces taking casualties abroad , maybe we could rename our 500+ posters something other than 'heroes' . . including me !!
   Other than call us 'saddos'  instead . ! . maybe folk on here could suggest something fitting .
     And . .maybe bump up qualifing posts  to 1000  ?
        regards  fT

I agree with you FT,how can you be called a Hero for simply posting tripe on a message board  :D ;D

Some message boards I frequent call them senior members after reaching a certain number of posts,before they reach the qualifying number they are called junior.

To be honest, I hadn't even noticed them - they are just default settings for the board.

I totally agree that the Hero Member name isn't the most appropriate. There's no problem changing the Hero Members to something new. How about "Seasoned Member" or "Veteran Member" although Veteran can have military connotations as well. Suggestions please!

Can you put anything in?  Could we all start off a Jim Dick and work our way up to be Miquel De Souza?
So many people have come and gone, their faces fade as the years go by.
Yet I still recall as I wander on, as clear as the sun in the summer sky.

Good fix Ken ..
 Is there one lurking for 1000 + posts ? Maybe one with a little ' ironee'  as the Yanks would say ?
