Changing Title.


Recommended Posts

Just broken the 500 posts and vaguely remember a post that said you could change ther title under your icon. Is it still so? And if it is can, someone point it out to a blind man?

I think it's around 1000 that you can do that. But keep it up and you'll be able to do it next week... :P:thumbup1:

IC.

It says in this post 500

I've got a feeling by the time I get near 1000 it will change again to 2000...lol.

Yep - you can customize your text once you get to 1000:

I've updated the post to reflect the correct number.

Yep - we usually change it based on how many posts you've made - when you get to around 98% of the target, we double the target. So, all you need to do is post enough to get through that last 2% *really* quickly and you'll beat us to it :D

Many thanks. That list might be worth pinning.

Now, wheres my PHP editor so that I can write a Post Daemon :P One reply to all posts might just do it.

Ooooh. Did I write that out loud :D:oops:

Ask Alfa's code...

BTW, I don't know if you should be allowed to customize one more thing on this forum... That could be nasty! ;)

What pun?

The subtle one.

To be fair, the term "pun" isn't really accurate in this case, but I think it should be fairly obvious from the context of my previous post if you look in the right place.

Indeed. I don't think a speech impedement qualifies as a "pun" :)

Now that LAVA's added a level at 500 my pun loses some of its meaning. Maybe it's time to find another. sad.gif

I like your "pun". One of the more amusing and creative ones I've seen here on LAVA. Certainly beats "I'm a LAVA not a fighter". wink.gif

That was the point. It was put there for the rare occasions when people notice these things.

Let's see what *you* come up with when you get to 1000 - now we'll all be watching :P

You are averaging 2 per day. Shaun's at 2.4. If I wasn't so lazy, I could write a VI to predict when he'll surpass you. Or I could be like a textbook author and just state that the exercise is left to the reader.

EDIT: To whomever is currently writing this VI (I'm sure someone must be), we'll all be really impressed if it automatically updates based on current post count and post rate :worshippy:

I doubt it would be that soon. I'm off on holiday for quite a while soon:) And I've lost my momentum now I know I can't change my title at 500 :P

I totally feel elite for knowing what's going on

You know that awesome TestStand and LabVIEW programming you're currently enjoying? Consider it on hold: my car needs washing.

How do you feel now?

It would be a privilege to lay a hand on your Sat-unn.

Watch it Chris. The lightning bolts eminating from your finger tips can leave scars. tongue.gif

You don't know my staff very well: there's little, if no chance of anyone around here listening to me, let alone being scarred :)

I never did find the ground rules for LAVA but I am allowed to help out on both sides.... I thought.book.gif

I think François was referring to The Emperor of the dark side from Star Wars:
