I don't know how to do any of this. I thought maybe if I could have an IGN box and an OOC name box in the miniprofile that it would make the sigs less cluttered.. but I'm so confused. I don't know how to do any of this stuff at all and it's driving me insane. >.< You don't want those boxes, they fucked up the DripRed coding BAD. Anytime a moderator changed either their or someone elses OOC and IGN info, it would wipe almost their entire page. Nice in theory, but eh...

No, actually, I do have to do it.
Hm. Although if it wipes out pages, I'm gonna have to agree with Jake and decide I might not want to. :/ How do we have people put their OOC names in the profiles, then, though?

I'd hate to put mine under the banner =/ It just looks so odd. Only looked good on one site for me, but anywhere else I can't do it. Nor under the avie. So it's either a new box for me, or nowhere >.> I don't mind if I'm called Idony ooc if the person dun know.

I'd much prefer not to bother with throwing ooc names out there. Who cares about them anyway? What're you trying to do, stop people from running two characters? Even then, you can't make someone put in an OOC name, nor can you stop them from lying.

It's not really required at all, but some people were complaining in the OOC threads when people use IC names to refer to the players because they don't know the OOC names. In fact, I think you were one of them.
Which is how it got brought up that perhaps we should have the -option- in the miniprofile, which turned into codes, which turned into Sirena trying to do coding by herself.
The only thing is, like I said, I don't want to find or implement a code that's going to mess up some sort of other coding on the pages. And no, it's got nothing to do with people running two characters, it's more just out of ease of conversation so people don't go, "My name's not Lestat OOC, you're stupid." or something else.

You should make a new proboards side, add in the current code, and play with it there where it doesn't run the risk of messing up Bite.

Problem is, I don't know anything about coding. So playing with it, even on a mockup.. could have potentially disasterous effects.

In fact, I think you were one of them. He wasn't, I was because Zwitter's human, Daniel I think? Was crossing and was bringing IC into an OOC thread. He didn't even attempt to pretend to be OOC. Hence my annoyance. But! That's neither here nor there any more. I can understand the desire to add the option to the side profile, but since it's proving to be such a pain in the tuchus why bother? If someone wishes to share their OOC name, then they can do like you did. Not like it's the end of the world after all. ;D

I meant you. I think I forgot to direct the statement with a name though. *dying of the plague*
But I agree. If there's no real code for it that I can figure out, and the eight million I tried already don't work in any of the modifications that I do know how to do, and the one on DR is buggy, and this and that, and I normally don't DO the coding..
I want to tear my hair out.
I think the only solution is that if you want your OOC name out there, then find a way to stick it in your sig. That's really the only way to do it without messing with all of these codes yet again.
