A mundane and mostly pointless question, though it is about SDMB

I note that in my posts I’m listed as

OldGuy
Charter
Member

while many (most ?) others, e.g., Northern Piper are listed as

Northern Piper
Charter Member

I thought at first this was due to the relative shortness of my ID, but then I saw

Quartz
Charter Member

so I don’t think that’s it. Searching around I’ve also found

**Pleonast

Charter Member**

with that extra line. So what gives?

2

Must be browser-related, as you are listed as

OldGuy
Charter Member

on my end.

3

Tip your phone sideways and watch what happens to the main page.

Oooo, magic.

4

Mine too. Using Chrome, on a laptop screen.

5

First class accommodations: I paid for the extra space.

6

Dit
to.

7

Thanks. More mundane and pointless than I expected.

8

We could mundane more, if you’d like. :slight_smile:

9

What device and browser are you using?

10

And point less.

Oldguy’s “Charter Member” was all on one line for me, and at first I couldn’t narrow my window enough to make it go to 2 lines… But then I tried increasing my font size with the scroll wheel. Then I could shrink my window enough to make it go to 2 lines. Most interestingly, when I re-expanded my window to normal width, it stayed on 2 lines. I refreshed the page, it’s still taking up 2 lines for me. But then I scrolled down here to make my post, and while editing I scrolled back… it’s back to taking up a single line.
