I was just wondering how to change your official title above your user name and avatar. For example, mine is "Samba Contributor." But i've seen many different, and more humorous names above people's avatars.

Help, eh? ](*,)

Those are "earned" and set by the administrators (EB and Jen).

After you've been here awhile and get a reputation they might give you a title. Try to get a "good" rep or you might not like your title. :wink:

Actually, I PM'ed Everett and he changed mine for me. I don't know if there really is such an emphasis on being here for a long time or having a lot of posts in order to recieve a title. I think if you just PM him, he will change your title to what you want (within reason)...or maybe I am wrong and he will correct me.

It's quality, not quantity.

It only takes a few posts to get a reputation as a "sea gull".

Oh, I totally agree Glenn.

The two titles that are standard are Samba Trainee and Samba Contributor. If you want something other than that, you need to PM Everett.

You can also wait to get a nickname. Some people on here are quite creative.
