Tagline under forum username
Hey,
How do I go about getting one of those nifty tag lines directly under my username when I post to the forum? Do you have to be admin or something? I'm imagining something like "ultra super-stud" or something, but that hasn't gone through final revisions yet. it might end up more like "guy with difficult-to-pronounce username".

...thinking that maybe I shouldn't post to the forum so late at night...

No, you can't edit those, but I guess if you're really helpful, charismatic, and lucky, you get smiled on by the great Murga and possibly recieve one.

So, all I have to do is pay proper respect to the enormously generous, wise, helpful, intelligent, handsome, dynamic, ...urm...tall...JohnMurga wrote:
"The great Murga"
That'll do it

...virile...
...uh...
...generous...--oh, wait, I used that one.
...super-cool, crazy-go-nuts forum admin that the ladies are all up ons (kudos to you if you get that reference), and I will get a tag line? Well, here goes:
You are the great Murga, duly seated at the right hand of Barry Kauler, Godfather to us all. You touch each of us every day in a non-creepy way by giving us this space in which to discuss Puppy linux and toss around transparent compliments in an attempt to get a goofy tag line. We are all, every one of us, from the Antediluvian Overseers of Puppy Linux, to the newest of the noobs, deeply in your debt. And on behalf of every one who uses this forum, I say, "Thank you, great Murga".
So...that should be enough a$$ kissing, right? Can I be the Ultra Super-stud now?

HAHAHAHA
My initial reaction was "Wannabe? OUCH!" But I understand that the title of Ultra Super-stud is a pretentious one and as such it seems right that I should have to prove myself for it. So, off I go to learn about this "Wikki" you speak of...
BTW, I have been trying to address some noob questions around here lately, but I am mostly a hardware guy, so ask me about SATA or PCI-Express or Terabyte RAID arrays and I'm your guy. Ask me how to find a file with GTKcat, and I'll just stare at you blankly. Doin' what I can, though!
Now, off to learn how to edit the Wikki!

PS. Thanks, JM
PPS. Seriously, I have no idea how to find a file with GTKcat. Of course, I could just google for some info...

Hey nduanetesh good luck in your sought after Stud status,
The Wiki (register with a CamelCase (see front page) name
(here is a tip for you "NduaneteshSuperStud" is still available)
People make a fuss about wikis but you can go around offering constructive comments (much appreciated and easy)
Editing - just press edit at the bottom of the page and stick in your text
The thing is "Learn and create" at the same time
Another good way to get your full and highly sought after super stud status is checking and reporting bugs for 1.0.2RC to Barry or staying on "Helping Paw" duty on the IRC forum

Lobster, words of wisdom as ever
You can go into IRC with a client, or just click on the chat icon at the top of this forum.
nduanetesh - Don't worry, I have seen your posts, you are well on your way, if it was easy to get it'd hardly be worth it would it
Cheers

This is very true, often we get new users who are in the midle of trying something popping into IRC, and currently there isn't enough of us on IRC to give the level of support we'd like.Another good way to get your full and highly sought after super stud status is checking and reporting bugs for 1.0.2RC to Barry or staying on "Helping Paw" duty on the IRC forum

ah-HA! I have just noticed that my status has been upgraded from Wannabe to Ultra Super-stud (in full effect)! I am deliriously happy! Thanks, JM
Lobster, I was thinking of adding a page to the hardware section of the wikki to list USB keys that people have found to be particularly Puppy friendly. (I've had three and only one has really worked like I wanted it to.) Do you think this is a good idea?
Wow...Ultra Super-stud. Mom will be so proud.

Lobster...I think I broke the wikki.
Ok, it's not really that bad, but I finally registered tonight and decided to start small by editing the modem details page, to let everybody know that the modem I use suddenly Just Works, and you don't have to follow all of those directions I put together a while back. Well, I have somehow managed to bold all of the text that I edited and everything below it on the page....which is almost the entire modem details page. I have no idea how I did it, and I don't know html at all (I'm guessing that the wikki is in html) so I couldn't figure out how to fix it. Can you help me out, please?
On a brighter note, I *did* get the text edited.
And not to sound like I'm shirking my duty or anything, but maybe you should create the USB Key page and I'll hop on and write some blurbs about the keys I have. (Couldn't find any obvious place for creating a new page.) I'll stick to answering newbie questions here and will give the IRC a shot next.

NO!
LOL - can not be done - you can not break a wiki - no worries. Wikis do not use HTML (though they can)
I will go have a look shortly
Thanks for having a go
You will soon get the hang of it
Here is the requested USB link - hey not just keydrives but USB
http://www.goosee.com/puppy/wikka/PuppyHardware
[b]Here is some bold [/b]- let us see how it works out

Popped in on the chat room again tonight...nobody there...again. I'm beginning to think that this whole "IRC Chat room" is just an elaborate haox you're all playing on me...or maybe I need to stop in at some more reasonable times...
And Lobster, I'll add some items to the USB wikki page tomorrow night. Just didn't want you to think I'd forgotten.
BTW, I really like the icon of the guy holding his breath:
