Is there anyway to change what the text next to my name says? I like how the system works here, but i dont want people who arent familier with the site to get the impression that I actually handle film. I don't, I'm on floor staff. Thus instead of "Film Handler" could we have something to the effect of "World's Smartest Usher" Although i would absolutely LOVE to be put into the booth, at this time, i don't want people (lurkers, in particuler) to assume that i'm am a projectionist.
By the way -- Many complements on this site, Brad. It is in my Top 5.

Hey Brad, you could give me a new title like "Best Useage of Useless Trivia Master" or possibly "Will Work For Food and Beer".The titles are actually programmed by how many posts you have, so as a newbee, you are just a film handler. Even if you never handle the film itself, you still get to be a film handler. If you get to be as cool as Bob, you can be a god, or as god like as Joe, you can be The Real Joe Redifer.

When you get more posts below your belt or get into the booth we'll talk. Those things have to be manually coded into the program files, which is why I generally only do them for the senior members.Moving to Yak.

I want mine changed to read "Large" film handler. But don't waste your time. I'm looking forward to changing in a couple of hundred posts.

Ok Ian, remind me when you hit 999 posts and I'll change yours to Large Film Handler.

Wow Brad, I never thought I'd be considered a 'senior', I'm only 21. I guess I'm a pretty Chipper senior!

Can you register an organisation with just yourself & Mr Lucas as members?

David,with your sense of humor I expect to see you posting in the joke section.
