A while ago in this thread: Is it just me … - Page 4 - openSUSE Forums, you suggested restoring the amusing tags we used to associate with avatars in posts that change as our post count increases.
In the old forums they were amusing – like Parent Penguin, Kernel Hacker, etc – instead of what we have now, dry stuff like Junior Member, Senior Member, Re Member, Can’t Re Member and so on.
We think it would be a good idea to change these tags occasionally as a bit of fun, really. And we are running a competition to see who can come up with a good set of tags to use first time round.
The post count levels will be like this: 50, 100, 250, 500, 1000, 2000
We need a complete set of six tags, so don’t do 1 or 2, do 6 OK?
They should be humorous and non-contentious (e.g. no religion or politics).
So what do you reckon we should have?

PS In the mod lounge, I voted for:
Cry Baby Suser
Girly girl Suser
Teeny bop Suser
Cool dude Suser
Boring old parent Suser
Fossilised Suser
But they shouted NNNNoooooooo… put it to the members!
Well there’s quite a few good ones here now, some obviously tongue in cheek, but all very interesting. So how are we going to decide the winner? Any ideas?
Of course. First set a deadline of suggesting names. Like now or tonight or tomorrow or whatever. Second, make a new thread with the option to vote, and make like a 1 week deadline or something. At the end you will know what the people chose.
Thank you. I didn’t skin the forum any differently from what it was by default… and sometimes I see the edit button, sometimes I don’t. I guess this is one of those times I don’t.
The ability to edit a post is limited to 10 minutes. After that you need to just post an update to your post. The reasoning for this is that we have an NNTP interface to these forums and edits won’t transit the gateway.
Hmm. If you’ll notice when I made both posts, you’ll see that it was only a couple minutes before I discovered the mistake and wanted to correct it. Whatever, I’ll just try to be more careful in the future, and if I see an edit button then great and if not I can always double-post.
