I thought it was all over. But there’s still a tiny vestige of it left. I wonder how long it will be before anyone notices? ---

If you are thinking **LiveOnAPlane** or **antechinus** , they are both custom title members and held those titles before April 1. If it’s something else, I’ll have to send my SDMBroomba sniffing again 🙂 ---

Well, yes and no. \*\*LiveOnAPlane \*\*has no title at all. I presumed he lost it on April Fool’s Day. I don’t recall anyone having no title at all - or is that an option now? To be intentionally blank, so to speak? ---

**LiveOnAPlane** ’s title is intentionally blank, and was so even before April Fool’s. It just played well with the fun in that thread 🙂 He uses an escape sequence, which the vBulletin software strips out, and thus he ends up with no title. ---

**Intentionally Blank** totally needs to know about this. ---

I think there are a couple of members with blank user titles. I’m not sure how the coding works but it can be done. ---

I thought you were talking about “The Game Room” having its name changed to “Game Room” when the names were reverted. Was that an intended change? ---

Yup; paid for that “nothing” prior to April 1. It warms my cheap little heart that someone noticed. 🙂
