I appear to have lost my custom title, which expires on 09-18-2012. I am now just a member.

Not sure what happened here. Weird.

Please check and see if you have your custom title blanks back – you’ll have to re-enter your custom titles, I don’t have access to that.

But now it’s a _different_ line under our names missing.

Edit: Never mind. It’s just you Charter Members that are missing out! Or members with titles. One of the two.

Should I have the custom title only, or should there also be the Charter Member title?

Yes,you should have both. Not sure why it’s not displaying.

I’ll fiddle with this some more.

Okay, all should be good now.

What I’m puzzled about is why this happened in the first place.

Anyone else having any problems here?

You do realize there’s an extra fee for that.

Three? Usually only goats have this problem. 😃

Not sure what happened to cause this, not exactly sure what I did to fix this, but I think you’re back to two lines here. Please let me know if any further weirdness develops.

Yes, I know, I know.
