Custom Status FAQ (the title under your username) (2 Viewers)

[wrong_turn]

this is what the custom status is:

first you go to you're user cp, go to edit profile and if you have it, it should appear like so

For Custom Status to occur:

you must have either gained,

3000 posts (Posts in Non School, Love and Relationships and Schoolies do not count to post count)
been a member for a long time

if you are still not sure, go to:

Bored FAQ

this is a surprise link
What every bored member will tell you to do in the bored forums

and if you do post anything, to do with custom status and you do not read the above page, you will get this:

i hope i will not have to see another post about custom status

Premium membership gives the option for custom titles.

How does one get the 'italics' username - ie what is premium and how do you earn/obtain it?

Have a look here.

I bought Premium membership because the site helped me so much during the HSC and early uni... Giving back and all that.

Also, as if double avatar lengths, extra title line, quickchat, and a blue username isn't cool.

Thanks for the custom status information.

Hey guys, 1 thing.

I go to that box and write down my desired name blah blah blah.
But then nothing changes.

I know it isn't my post count as i've seen people with less posts being able to have that. Could it be the age of my account?

Do the following.

Click settings > Edit profile (located to your LHS)

Then your screen should look like this.



After that, check reset, then type your desired subtitle.

Finally click save changes and presto!

Will wait. Dunno why not?

Scroll down? Check again? You must have it! Spiral is baffled...

Yep, done. Still can't see it.

Just got 'Custom subtitle' (which is only for premium)

Prehaps you need to exceed the title "loquacious one" first. Do not worry, 3k posts is a breeze.

Kidding, you need around 1.6k.

May I suggest the Mathematical forum. It is fun to post there. Not only will you increase your post count but you will also experience great satisfaction of helping humans.

Lol. I've come to this site to procrastinate. Though i'll be glad to help people with maths (and learn heaps too)
I actually wanna see how much i can post these holidays. Will aim for 1.3k posts by the end of January.

Anyway, problem probably solved (unless someone else sees another reason).

Yeah, trouble is 2012 forum is basically ded. No one posts there too much. Not too many regulars. What it needs is a good troll. That would be great.

Sounds like a job for Spiral! You haven't been here long enough to know that the site has more incoming members during the March period.

Really? I dunno, maybe post trial depression.

Back on topic: Actually, it can't be the whole 1.6k post thingo. I've seen users with <100 posts doing this (though my memory might be crap)
