Some Information, Please

Dazed and Confused

Published on September 3, 2011 By Starcandy In Forum Issues

Well, I'm guessing I didn't win the Wincustomize subscription for August's screenshot thread. So I decided to buy it today instead.

I've noticed a few things though, and I thought that becoming a subscriber would sort them out. It hasn't, so I need some info and/or help with them.

Firstly, there seems to be a difference between my Wincustomize site when compared to others. I hope you don't mind Doc, but I grabbed a screenshot of your site to illustrate my point.

I don't have that nice charcoal coloured bar or any of the tabs. Is there something I need to do to have one? I've logged out then cleared the cookies and cache for my browser, but that didn't help.

Secondly, on my forum profile my motto doesn't show up, and there doesn't seem to be a place for a list of friends, like others have. Hell, I don't even know how you add someone as a friend. I can't add a favourite skin either. Though on that one I've read two seperate threads regarding the same issue, and there doesn't seem to be an answer beyond "personal sites are not supported", so I figure theres no way for me to add a favourite skin.

Any help/info would be greatly appreciated.

Jim that's utterly disgusting.

Yeah, and it's not even realistic looking. The head is completely disproportionate to the rest of the body. That's just wrong!

I gotta call Rick...nice bar.....does he have "dancers".

Nah, Rick doesn't have a titty bar: 1. his missus won't allow it; 2. At this juncture in time, there's more money in alcohol than in milk.

And don'tcha just hate false/misleading advertising?

On my travels one day I spies this ad for a topless bar, so I goes in expecting to be 'titilated'. and what do I get...

... a 40 something barman with no shirt and enormous man boobs.

Starcandy, I figured it out. I think.

You are a Citizen(1). You have no bar. None of the other Citizen (1)'s have a black bar either.

mrs starkers is an apprentice (2). She has a bar. starkers is a Master Apprentice (3) and has a bar. Wizard1956 is a Journeyman(4) and has a bar. vStyler is a Master (5) and has a bar. I am a Wizop (6) and have a bar.

Soooo - I think it's all tied to rank (level of access). When your access level changes, what do you bet you get a black bar? The only other variable I haven't controlled for is length of time here/member number....

Search around and see if that holds up.

Now gimme my black bar back, you sneaky lurker, you.

Interesting post. Yup no black bar with tabs for me either and I have apprentice rank so I guess that can't be it. I also always get the same thing Starcandy does when clicking on the My site tab.

Maybe we'll get certain features back when Wincustomize 2012 comes around, now that the delightful Australian woman isn't here, whoever she was.

Po, I don't know if I should congratulate you on the picture, or tell you you're a sick puppy. Either way, it's going to be a good few hours before I can think about having breakfast.

I wasn't always this way.

I think I'm prematurely turning into a dirty old man.

I've had this urge to get up at 5 a.m. and sit on a bench and check out the mall walkers.

And I've been thinking that Stockard Channing is pretty damn hot lately. Especially in Practical Magic. It's the whole witch / gypsy thing.

Considering the heavy influence of folks from down under in the forums, I blame Australia for my behavior.

Sadly, it wasn't just her. Others also abused the guest book feature... namely spammers, and spoilt it for everyone.

As for the whoever bit, well that's not so important, it's the wherever..... and fortunately, that's nowhere near me.

I enjoy my peace and quiet too much... can't say sanity, though.

Nah, lost that donkey's yonks ago, though many would say I never had much of a grasp on it to begin with.
