No such option there :(

I suspect it is only an option for people such as yourself who are mods.

I assumed it was automatically generated depending on the number of posts you make so us mere mortals can do nothing to change it except spam ;)

that's odd...
a friend of mine (who join long time ago), and IS NOT a MOD, has this option, but i dont. why is that???

I think it only appears after you've posted 20 times....
... stick around and you'll get there!

yes. i think jeep is right.. i myself was able to change it.. when i was not yet a moderator.

maybe or most probably it's base on the number of post before u r allowed to change it.

Maybe I should have left mine as "Newbie"...would have suited me better ;)

Yeh, it's part of the Vbull forum, after a configed number of posts or months, a user is entitled to change his "description".

And you can change it as many times as you like ;)

Cheers

It may not be just the number of posts, it may be also the number of months.

Wait another month I guess? You only registered in July ;)

Hi,

Seems a real problem?

As far as I know, there is no restriction whatsoever.

Except for the bad words.

I will ask Mr. Man0n to be sure.

But maybe, once U changed it, did U also pressed the button in the bottom, with submit modifications?

its only number of posts..
depends what value the admin has chose when setting up this board. usually it is next level after "member", but you can change that..

no... is not that it does not ACCEPT my modifications, or that I placed bad words, or that Im "dumb" as you insinuate and I forgot to press "submit modifications"

I simply DONT HAVE THAT OPTION on my USER CP (profile) :confused: (and I know for fact that a friend of mine, the one who introduced me to this forum, DOES have it)

easy.

a MOD that has seen how many post i have is saying that it won't work if I place bad words or if i dont press the button thus he is assuming that I DO HAVE THE FUNCTION, but the problem is that I DONT...

did you read?

...mostly because they said 20 posts and is not working, and everybody seems to have a "working" opinion so, what's yours?

(SONG) hoooow many pooost must a maaan post down, befoooore he can chaaange his avataaaar...!? (i know is not the avatar, but the inscription above, is just that it rymes better... :grin: )

"OH DEAR"

I appologize if I gave you the impression that I'm impatient or pis*ed off, because is not the case....

I was just asking because I had so many answers, that I tryied, and saw that didn't work, thus I had to ask again upon the results, also, I thought I would write the "adaptation" of that song, just for a little bit of joke, that's all...;)

PEACE PEOPLE :wink:

Hi,

Luckily all problems are solved now.

>> or that Im "dumb" as you insinuate and I forgot to press "submit modifications"

We only need to work on that maybe.

I only explained the mistake I made myself a long time ago.

But here's a smiley :p, to make U start doubting that again. ;)

PS, I will however keep Ur advice of those 30 posts in mind, just in case.

Thanks

NokDoc
