Howdy. I’ve been around here a lot less frequently recently, so I’ve only just noticed that I lost my Charter Member title. I’ve been a paid, current member since you’ve started charging (ahh, I remember that day well). Could somebody look into it, please? Thanks. ---

Hey, at least you didn’t get demoted to guest! Lots of folks had their proper titles misplaced during the upgrade. Jerry’s reported to be working on it, but it’s a low priority, given all the other bugs he’s trying to iron out in the system. Or so the PTB tell us. ---

Jerry is working on things in the order he sees as most important. If you read the first [Sticky](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=482569) in this forum, Jerry updates his first post as he completes jobs and starts on the next one. If you notice, he has your problem as important and to be solved in the next group. ---

OK thanks for the reply. For what it’s worth, I don’t consider it “important”. ---

I still had my charter member status until a few days ago. Now I’m just a member. So things are getting worse, not better. ---

I was a guest awhile ago, and now I’m back to charter member. Totally sweet. This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. ---

This is an outrage! Mine says ‘guest’ and I can’t get it to go back! Crosses fingers hoping no one recalls if it’s supposed to be like that or not. ---
