Testy, testy, test, test. I’m probably a bit previous, as I’ve only just paid by credit card. ---

Same problem here. Paid by c/c an hour ago. Never had a custom title either. ---

This is a test post. I paid, and the last time I looked it still said just “Member”. I paid by credit card, if that makes any difference. ---

Bollocks. I knew it’d do that. Aah well, it’s cool, but I will miss being “TheLoadedDog Member”. 😃 ---

Hamsters are sneaky devils I guess. I’d paid, logged off, came back on later and it still said Member. So I made the test post and those little devils sneaked it in on me. ---

All the anxious-sounding posts in this thread with “Charter Member” under their names are comforting, so I’m gonna guess that I could just walk away for a couple of hours and not worry about it, but… My older posts are still showing me as a “Guest” so here I am, making a test post. Dinna see no nag screen, so that’s additionally comforting. _Om mani padme post… Om mani padme post… Om mani padme post…_ ---

Test McTesterson… Can I just say I’m pleased at the number and variety of people who are gung-ho enough to sign up on Day 1. PS Do charter members get to have all the smileys? or is there just something wrong with me? ---
