So I've noticed that some users have bolded names, while others have ones in normal font. Why is this? I don't think it's because of post count, because I've seen members with no posts whatsoever with bolded names. Just wanted to know. Thanks! -TT |

The ones with bold names are those who joined before the last change-over of servers or whatever. Before the site's last major update, anyway. Or, I think that's what it is... |

Nope, bold names mean the user isn't "newly registered" anymore. Has nothing to do with anything save for some controls for admins, really. |

I thought DNA posted about this recently but I can't find the topic. I guess he deleted it. Instead here is a chat log dump. I think we got to the bottom of it. I cut some stuff out and replaced some names/dates/numbers. Sep 04 20:20:11 <Rex> DNA, i think the only difference (that i've noticed) between the non/bold names is the amount of time they've been on the forum Sep 04 20:20:27 <DNA> That isn't it either I don't think Sep 04 20:20:37 <DNA> I've seen non-bold people that are older than bolded people Sep 04 20:20:57 <DNA> I don't think it's post count either Sep 04 20:21:08 <DNA> I seriously couldn't figure it out Sep 04 20:21:18 <Rex> hm Sep 04 20:21:23 <Rex> psybucks, maybe? *cut* Sep 04 20:23:08 <Rex> nope, not psybucks either Sep 04 20:23:34 <Rex> or age... huh *cut* Sep 04 20:35:53 <&NinjaBlack> So what is the difference (if any) between a bold name and a non-bold one? / *I* don't even know the answer to this >_> Sep 04 20:38:51 <C_G> joined after the forums last moved -> non-bold Sep 04 20:39:09 <Rex> ^that makes a lot of sense Sep 04 20:39:21 <DNA> I think [user] is non-bold and rex09 is bold Sep 04 20:39:29 <DNA> and [user] joined in 09, and rex in 10 Sep 04 20:39:31 <Rex> yeat Sep 04 20:39:35 <Rex> what Sep 04 20:39:38 <Rex> huh Sep 04 20:40:25 <Rex> [user]:Joined: [sometime in the summer of 2011] Sep 04 20:40:31 <Rex> not quite :p Sep 04 20:40:46 <Rex> memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=[numbers] if you want to look...
