    Question.

    Why do some names have an asterick next to them when names are listed? It sooms to be completely random. For example yesterday I saw Sprite-* but today there was so asterick. I'm just curious.

    Re: Question.

    I've always wondered what the symbols meant, too.

      Re: Question.

      I thought * meant invisible on the forums. Subs can see them though.

      Lol, I remember when people accused Midday of being bs because he was invisible on the forums. He had no idea what they were talking about XD.

            Re: Question.

            Uh... isn't it? That's what I assumed it to be... because Midday got accused of being invisible because of an * mark on his name in the Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread section. I don't remember seeing these asterisks before I became a subscriber. So I assumed subs can see invisible people... o.o

                Re: Question.

                Yup. I changed to invisible, and I became asterisked.

                So wait, Tass was joking right? He knew subs could see invisible users... right?

                  Yep, you did Midday, so my question is officially answered =P
                  And he might not have known. Tass is Tass, not God (though its a pretty close race =P) and he cant know absolutely everything

                      You pay to get X-Ray vision. XD

                      What's the point of being invisible anyway?

                        Yea, i was kind of wondering that too lol. Its not like AIM where you cna avoid people. The only way of really contacting someone is a PM and you can do that whether or not theyre online, so I'm not really seeing a difference xD

                          I've noticed that when you see the green button go red on the left side of the post, that means they're "invisible" too.

                              Makes it sound like you're going to do something about it... what's the other half?

                              Or it's just a reference to Sicilian Sun.
