But nothing has changed for us. Still the old format. Unless we are just not seeing something, I don't think we are activated.

Hmm - something's up then. I'll try to take a look.

Edit: Seems Mark's already looking into it, so I'll wait to see what he finds.

Same problem here, I just checked. No option for editing title or adding custom avatar.

Hmm - I think the problem might have to do with the fact that you guys are Moderators first, and Alliance second. Seems that having the Alliance usergroup as your "secondary" group does not automatically translate into the same settings.

The basis of my conclusion is that non-Moderators who are Alliance members don't seem to be having this problem, but then, they have Alliance as their "primary" group.

I'll discuss with Mark on resolutions for this.

Edge,

Is that a custom Avatar you have? If not, then I am having the same issue. I only see the same Avatars as everybody else is seeing - nothing updated.

Yes, it is a custom avatar, but remember - I'm in the Administrators group, not the Moderators group - that's why our situation is a bit different.

I've sent an PM to Mark already, including a proposed solution... so hopefully we'll get it resolved soon.

I know I have had a paid paypal notice since Saturday, and my user CP is not allowing any changes. It must be taking some time.

Hmm - that one is definitely a Mark one. I'm sure he'll read this and reply soon.

Mark, I'm surprised that you'd have even a mention of flying monkeys in your avatar -- as much as you hate them!

I have to admit, though, that Merry Moderator is cool.

It should be back now. Please keep in mind that I have to manage Alliance privileges for mods, admins, etc. in a different manner than that normal users of the site.

If anyone is having trouble with their membership or other membership things please post here or use the Alliance support options in Contact Us and I'll help you.

Thanks!

Paul - for some reason the system did not auto promote you to the Alliance group when you paid. I just promoted your account manually so you should see all the options in User CP to adjust your avatar and other stuff.

Let me know if this isn't the case.

I think I may be having problems with my account Mark. I'm showing the Alliance status in my posts but I'm not seeing any options for custom title, etc. in the User CP. If you could take a looksee at it I'd appreciate it!

Thanks!
