Re: I made a new forum signature.

Who said that Juniors and Seniors are not crazy ? wink

=> SNURK, maybe you could create an intermediate indicator ? Because currently, when Juniors "lose" their indicator, they will never get a new one. Or maybe you could define the "Senior" indicator as "more than 5 years" ?

I second this motion. If you want to recognize the WCGeezers then it is only fair to actually allow people to earn that distinction.
Here is a compromise: Have two "Sr" badges (different colors). One for the "original" Geezers, and one for the "aged" Geezers.
Having said that, I think the "Jr" badge will be useful in the forums to better identify a cruncher with limited experience.

Re: I made a new forum signature.

I made a small experimental change to the signatures and the signature ranking. Inspired by another thread I created little indicators for senior and junior members. Thought about what would be the best definition for sr and jr for a while and settled for this simple approach:
Senior (Sr): Members joined in the first year of WCG, that is before nov 16 2005.
Junior (Jr): Members joined last year, that is after jul 8 2010 (as of today). This date will slide of course.

I like it but what about those in between?

Btw, would the number of active machines be a good addition?

AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF 6C/12T 3.2 GHz - 85W
AMD Ryzen 5 2500U 4C/8T 2.0 GHz - 28W
AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8C/16T 3.0 GHz

Re: I made a new forum signature.

Active machines are hidden by default at member level and like that to be respected, should there be a back-door to reconstruct that [there is].

--//--

As for Sr/Jr, in society we do not speak of 'Adults' or 'Matures', not seeing how that could be fit in such a small icon. The Little Blue man is still begging to get a function, that is what I remember... SNURK at the time having had no plans how to develop this 'sign'.

Looks good to me. I noticed it the other day and got a chuckle out of being called a jr ;)

Re: I made a new forum signature.

Hi SNURK,

If I put my sig on a black background, the white of the dutch flag is turned black also. On a white background one would not notice that, but i did! Is this supposed to be this way or not?

Cheers,

William Senn
