this is what the custom status is:



first you go to you're user cp, go to edit profile and if you have it, it should appear like so



For Custom Status to occur:

you must have either gained,

3000 posts (Posts in Non School, Love and Relationships and Schoolies do not count to post count)
been a member for a long time


if you are still not sure, go to:

Bored FAQ

How does one get the 'italics' username - ie what is premium and how do you earn/obtain it?

Have a look here.

I bought Premium membership because the site helped me so much during the HSC and early uni... Giving back and all that.

Also, as if double avatar lengths, extra title line, quickchat, and a blue username isn't cool. :eek:

Hey guys, 1 thing.

I go to that box and write down my desired name blah blah blah.
But then nothing changes.

I know it isn't my post count as i've seen people with less posts being able to have that. Could it be the age of my account?

Do the following.

Click settings > Edit profile (located to your LHS)

Then your screen should look like this.



After that, check reset, then type your desired subtitle.

Finally click save changes and presto!

Prehaps you need to exceed the title "loquacious one" first. Do not worry, 3k posts is a breeze.

Kidding, you need around 1.6k.

Ohmygawwddd

Well, better start posting random stuff lol...
May I suggest the Mathematical forum. It is fun to post there. Not only will you increase your post count but you will also experience great satisfaction of helping humans.

Lol. I've come to this site to procrastinate. Though i'll be glad to help people with maths (and learn heaps too) :)
I actually wanna see how much i can post these holidays. Will aim for 1.3k posts by the end of January.

Anyway, problem probably solved (unless someone else sees another reason).

Yeah, trouble is 2012 forum is basically ded. No one posts there too much. Not too many regulars. What it needs is a good troll. That would be great.

Sounds like a job for Spiral! You haven't been here long enough to know that the site has more incoming members during the March period.

Really? I dunno, maybe post trial depression.

Back on topic: Actually, it can't be the whole 1.6k post thingo. I've seen users with <100 posts doing this (though my memory might be crap)
