First names under avatars - Meanders - 06-07-2013

Can we get users first names displayed with the avatars on posts?

Helps folk put real names to forum names.

All this extra info to be displayed on every post could clutter the layout.
It's easily accessible under a user's profile if you really want to see it
Do we want our forum looking like other garrison's? Wink

I'm happy fo my name not to be displayed under my avatar. It's in my bio, personally I think that's enough.

I want our forums to set a new standard, that's not to say that we shouldn't borrow idea's from other forums. But less clutter would be better.

The star rating system is currently under review.
Based on your current status - "Cadet" & between 100 & 250 posts you get 3 stars. Undecided

What does the "Reputation" stand for?

Do we really need either Star or Reputation?


RE: First names under avatars - Sorbin - 09-07-2013

Yeah, they're more for public message boards, especially the Rep system, if it helps to remove that it can go. If its too hard or doesn't really make a difference I'm sure we'll just ignore it.

Stars might be handy to denote access levels, but thats about it.

Get rid of it all. Including post counts.
