Mr. Admin, I'm not an idiot.

Mouse over the green icon and it shows that. Not just me but a lot of members have this designation. Why?

 

[Dave Blake]

Thanks for the heads up I am looking in to what is going on. That should only show when your Reputation is more than -50 which its not. Your current reputation is currently at +10 I dont know why that is showing.

It's just a fun status reflecting how much you participate on the forums.

I'm an unknown entity but I used to be an idiot LOL (Some might say i still am!)

Don't take it too seriously Techblogger.

Your not an Idiot any more I had to reset the field in the Admin panel. That was odd if you guys see things like that let me know I will get it worked out.

 

[TheWeeBear]

I'm surprised you didn't know about it, i noticed as soon as I joined the forums way back in January and thought nothing of it, I found it rather amusing.

I guess not everyone shares my amusement.

 

[Dave Blake]

It’s just one of those things I never look at. Some of this stuff was set up a long time ago before I got here so I just haven’t messed with it. As I get deeper in to things I find more and more stuff I would have done differently. I can’t find it all without you guys help so please if you see something like that let me know make a post or PM me.

I didn't take it too seriously Weebear. Especially when I found many contributors to the forum have the same designation. lol. But to have it there at all is just, well, rude. Noobs, Yeomen, DOS, Windows 3.0 I mean I've seen all of these stepping stones but referring to noobs as "idiots" well I needed to ask whats up. It won't stop me from posting but it looks out of place for WPCentral.

Agree 100% only time you should ever see that is if someone is just trolling and getting hit with a lot of bad rep. It should be fixed now but if you guys see it again let me know.

Thanks Dave. I appreciate what you do.

 

[TheWeeBear]

Hey it's an injustice, i'm still an unknown quantity!

OK Techblogger have you got some dirt on Dave and you blackmailed him ?

You can tell me, I won't tell a soul, honest!

I noticed this a few days ago, but just as Techblogger mentioned, many recognized, distinguished posters shared my idiotic status. So I just let it be.

Thanks for fixing it, Big D5.
