What are those 3 dots next to my name?

I see everyone here has what I’m going to call a “TAG” next to their name. Like @SessionDrummer says “The Steam Crave Guy”. All I get is 3 little dots.

I tried to make is say. “The Epitome of Deterioration”. Oooh, oooh! How about, “I’m not as old as my dad when he died.”

How does one change that?

Pauly, follow the photos, and then, by clicking on ‘Title’, a dropdown will open with a handful of choices. Custom entries have to be requested, and I don’t know if @Grubby can still do that, since the change of ownership here.

Not getting it. I don’t know what you mean by “follow the photos”. If I go straight to my profile, my choices for title are Member or None. I’ve selected “member.”

And who changed ownership and why? @Grubby rocks! Someone with deeper pockets?

Speaking of which, I want to donate, but Patreon (Or whatever it’s called) says it’s not accepting new members or something like that…

'Twas more than a millisecond ago, so I forget.

It’s not important, except I need to keep the brain challenged.

Speaking of donating. I want to, but I don’t want “Donator” to replace those 3 dots. Having run a Bulletin Board Service back in the 80’s and a forum for the city in which I live, I know it’s not cheap. But I feel it makes people that can’t afford to donate, look cheap. Or seem like they don’t care, which is not fair.

I WOULD like to know who, what, when, where and how this site is being hosted. Having been a Microsoft Certified System Engineer, I’d like to see if I can save “them” some money.

@Grubby, can you change those dots to say, “I’m not as old as my dad was when he passed” ? He made it to 101. Pains I have, at 81?

Once upon a time, I was like. I want my midlife crises to be at age 100. Now? 90 is more than enough!

Old people get to complain! There’s some material in your hip that sucks the ball into the socket. Left one is ripped. Have arthritis in my lower left back. Doc says, those nerve go up you’re spine to your brain and could be fooling your brain. 'Ya think?

Get an MRI of my back next week. Doc say’s else it’s a hip replacement and you don’t want that. I survived my wife’s hip replacements. No more to replace. 'Ya know what? Replace that POS! She can walk!

I sit here in my garage all day, smoking and refreshing this site, and ELR hoping someone has something t say. My hip/back does not hurt one bit. Get up to clean the kitchen, bathroom, or cook dinner? Holy shit! Norco doesn’t do shit!

Okay, this has gone from an old man complaining, to wining. L8r!

How did you get yours to say “Licid Dreaming” without hovering.

And while I have your ear… Been trying to donate to this great cause. I read an article from a few years ago about paypal not working, I don’t see how to schedule a payment using my debit card and Potreon says “This member isn’t supporting any creators at the moment.”

That’s a custom tag, I can set that up for you, it can’t be too long though.

Donations are out of my control. @cloudycaptain Have you got a way to donate set up?
