....the plus sign next to my name mean?

I cant imagien it meant infractions as I cant be the only person on the forum with an infraction as there has been alot of abuse from all directions recently.

Whats it mean? Its gone now but its been there over 2 days or something.

I didn't see a plus sigh next to your name.

Has anyone else got one, so I can take a shufty?

cashman · 21-06-2007, 23:41

probably just a glitch,never noticed it, Que Sera.

blazey · 21-06-2007, 23:42

Nevermind, I THINK i know what it means but I dont want it openly said on here now if I'm right.

WillowTheWhisp · 22-06-2007, 07:18

I never saw any plus sign at any time. In fact I've never seen any plus signs next to anyone's name ever on here.

Infractions? Do we have infractions as such on here? I thought we just got told off by mods and then banned if we didn't behave. We don't have those reed and yellow card things like some forums have.

Cancel that last statement. Apparently we now do have. I didn't know that because I'd never seen any.

Mind you, with some people already having *s and +s before and after their names I probably wouldn't notice anyway!

The only time I have seen a plus sign next to someones name is if they have been added to your own buddy list, so perhaps you added yourself by mistake and have since corrected this over-sight?

I cant see the plus sign, someone else can. Maybe your right. From the sound from the PM's ive had about it though it sound pretty random.

I have a buddy and my buddy has no plus sign.

***Mr D*** · 22-06-2007, 16:12

When you a new member it come with a + sign next to your status kinda thing.

Ie Junior Member & Junior Menber + is that what your reffering to? I think the plus means you have posted more.

WillowTheWhisp · 22-06-2007, 18:01

Ah so not next to name, next to status!

Then the person who can see it has added you to there buddy list.

Listen to your uncle Less.

As I understand it, the plus sign appears next to a name if you are on their buddy list. So if you saw your name with a "+" next to it, I am guessing that you saw it on another person's computer, and they have you ticked as a buddy.
For example, I am on lettie's buddy list, (I can't think why

)... so my name appears embelished with a "+" when she is logged on but not next to my name when I am logged on.

Conversely, the ignore list just hides a member of that select band from view, so that you don't see any of their posts. Some of the threads get more than a little surreal when you try to make sense of the conversation when half of it is missing.
