For me, premier shows who really puts their money where their keyboard is, so thats my stand.

After reviewing the "what it takes" to be voted OTBS, I think there isn't much higher

. A Premier membership doesn't say about a person what the OTBS definition does. My $0.02

Certainly OTSB is an earned honor and I acknowledge that but to denigrate those who've shown an active interest in supporting this site, to wit, paying for the privilege to be here, leaves me shaking my head.

I don't think anyone is denigrating Premier Members. But to say someone who is not a premier member "doesn't put their money where their keyboard is" suggests that if you aren't a Premeir Member, you're not contributing.

What about those that have contributed to the knowledge base that makes this a valuable site?

I honestly thought all users could change their own custom user title.. Interesting

I will definitely check on that

And of course u did .. TY sir.. Great job again Jeff !!!

I agree.. no one is buying a badge. These folks support the site freely and the badge is just my way of letting everyone know what they do and how much I appreciate it.

Yeah....same problem here with the 19" screen at work. My 27" at home has no problem though.

TulsaJeff · May 28, 2010

Let me clarify lest someone mince my words...

I appreciate the entire membership and all who come here and help the newbies, post answers, etc. are very important to the livelihood of this fine forum. I sincerely appreciate all of you.

I do feel the need to say a special thank you to those who do all of these things + support the site with their funds.

jaxgatorz · May 28, 2010

Ok Jeff, we get it.. You love us..

Can u help with the smiley's??

Can you post a screen shot of this somehow? Just hit alt+prnt scrn and paste it into Paint. Then you can save as a .jpg and post to the forum.

When I click on the smileys it is showing me a box that pops up with 10 rows of smileys, 8 columns wide.

jaxgatorz · May 28, 2010

i will try......percent lower on drinking nights tho

jaxgatorz · May 28, 2010

Nope, it won't let me do it......And yes i know what u are axin...The commands are only working for the page behind the smiley box........the smiley box is only showing 3 lines and it has no scroll bar to see the rest and it wont let me "pull" the edges to make it larger.....Not that big of deal just wondering if i was the only one.... Hey jeff, i decided the only way to show u was to take a picture,so here ya go

TulsaJeff · May 28, 2010

Hey that should work.

Can you also let me know what browser you are using, what version of windows, monitor size, and anything else you think might be relevant.?

Once I get that, I will report it to the people who can fix it.

jaxgatorz · May 28, 2010

Sure, IE 7 19 monitor and i can't think of anything else revelant...thx again..Oh and windows xp

my vote is for the OTBS badge to be more prominent , I care more about OTBS status vs premier membership status, one status can be bought the other is earned.

Hi Jeff,

Is there a way to be a premier member but still maintain anonymity?

cruizer · May 28, 2010

I vote premier! Put the otbs Badge with your signature.

For now, that's the way it is if you are an OTBS member. Since you are an OTBS member, that badge takes priority over the premier member badge thereby awarding you complete and utter anonymity.
