I have seen the "+" next to peoples names from time to time on the "whos on" "whats going on" page aka 2 nd page. What does this mean? Also I have seen "*".

Another question: I have seen some Mods who's names are not bold. Example Heavy Duty who had a "+" next to his name.

The "+" and "*" are easier. The "+" means I'm dead, and you're talking to my spirit.











Actually, here's the key (from the bottom of the "Who's Online" page):


+ User is on your buddy list
* User is invisible to others

Odd. My name is in the first position of "Currently Active Users"

My name is also first, with a * next to it, since I choose to surf in stealth mode (I wouldnt want to get caught with my right boob out in the TaBz forum ;) )

Also, I've noticed that most posters have a Bass clef in the lower left corner of their posts, and I have a check mark instead.

From what I have gathered.

+ means that person is on your buddy list

* means that person has been inactive for a little while

Bold= supporting members

Regular=admins,mods,normal members

The little bass clef in the bottom:
white=user is online
dark=User is offline

* means a person is in ninja (invisible) mode.
