It has the avatar, followed by gender, followed by date of birth. Maybe it's not in there?

 

[KuroganeHammer]

Then it's not there. I'm not sure why you could change your title without premium before, but perhaps after the forum software change it's broken and you no longer can change it.

Perhaps bring this to the attention of an administrator.

 

[Muhti]

I was able to change mine with the new forums.

I did have premium at one point, but I had the custom title well before the site even had premium. I'll ask around about it in PMs.

 

[Claire Diviner]

It could be that the title change was made a premium-exclusive perk at some point after premiums were introduced? I wouldn't exactly know, seeing as I had joined well after premiums were implemented.

 

[ndayday]

Custom titles were always a premium perk. It was likely a permission left on or something of the sort if you could always change it, if it just disappeared then yeah just talk to an admin and they should restore it.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Yeah Umbreon is just one of the exceptionals.

 

[michael_li]

Can you add that feature back in from old smashboards where it shows [Melee,Brawl,64] etc in the thread titles?

melee is better than brawl and project m

 

[sh0rtlilr3tard]

Is there a way for me to change my username? I made this back when I was in junior high and would like to change it. If possible, please let me know!

Thank you

With a purchase of any amount of premium membership, you can private message "Virgilijus" and request a new name. Without premium membership, I am afraid not.

 

[DE_Desti]

Why can't I create a Thread in Tournament listings? but in tournament discussion I can lol

 

[PCwizCube]

Post deleted (can a moderator delete this, thanks)

 

[MrButterFuzz]

Whats the font name for our new smashboards logo?

 

[professor mgw]

I would have to continue to buy premium in order to keep my name changed after it has ran out? Only came by the site a few times within the past 2 years so I forgot plenty.

 

[Gatlin]

No you would not. Once you change your name, it is permanently changed.

(unless you should decide to change it again whilst you still have active premium)

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

That is a fine use of the word "whilst". I would give you an upvote, but alas a like is all I can give.

 

[Zatchiel]

I can't manage to change my avatar. Every time I try to upload a new image, my current avatar stays there. I've tried deleting it then uploading, logging out then logging back in and uploading, and even from other computers/devices. I like Sugar Sprinkles and all, but damn. Tenacious much?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

It is a known bug and is currently being worked on. Thanks for reporting it though

Just about to ask the same thing. Ugh, where can I start a thread where I can rage about why this "premium membership" is wrong?

If you have a problem with a user/policy/etc, you should make a post in Forum Support.

Thanks. Sorry if I sounded mean. I just was pretty angry lol.

how do I make a second smashboards account?

 

[final lap]

Whenever I try to change my avatar, it just comes up blank.

How do I fix it?

Avatar changes are currently down for the moment, instead read this: http://smashboards.com/threads/avatar-workaround.334597/

Will avatar changes come back up in the near future? If so then I'll just wait.

 

[Get Low]

Is it possible to change your signature to someone else's quote anymore?
I tried changing mine, but it didn't work.

Any particular reason for the option of uploading an avatar with a link was removed with the transfer?

Also, rule of thumb for the upload circumvention thing: Label your avatar as a G rated image if you want it to work. That's the only way I could get mine to upload to this site successfully, otherwise, it'd keep saying that there was no Gravatar ascribed to my email, which was annoying. If there is a way to upload it without having it be rated G, I don't know how to do so.

 

[final lap]

Is there a way to make the site stop sending me emails? I see I can uncheck all the alerts, but if possible I don't want to disable alerts, I just want to disable the emails.

 

[Desu~]

I've got a plethora of questions here.

1. Why is there such a thing as a pony in my emoticons? How do i kill it permanently?
2. I want to change my avatar but my current one is still too cool. Do i change it anywayz?
3. Why does everyone hate Smashboards so much?
4. How do you make a comment? Because i always seem to be lucky to make my posts but it always takes me a ****load of time to get it right. Any ways to make this easier?

 

[Knight Dude]

Hey, I have one quick question. I'm not sure if it's exclusive for this site but some people have these "Insert character name here for SSB4" gifs. I was wondering if there was a thread were these gifs were made. I wanted to add some to my sig.

 

[CourageHound]

GGs diddy, fun matches. I had to go unfortunately

 

[Zatchiel]

Good **** Courage, LOL.

 

[Illuvial]

Why can't I buy premium membership? I wish to change my username, so I went to purchase premium, but the link is dead. Are we not aloud to buy premium anymore?

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Try using this link to purchase premium: http://smashboards.com/account/upgrades

let me know if there is a broken link there

 

[Illuvial]

Yup, the link worked. But since it is Paypal I can't use it due to personal issues. Thanks anyways!

 

[Terra-Xehanort]

Is there anything that's like a kind of tutorial for the Make Your Move competitions?

 

[jfed8888]

I apologize if this has already been asked, but I just joined a couple months ago, and I noticed that it doesn't allow me to post of some threads. It says, "You have insufficient privileges to post here." Before the ownership change though, it allowed me to post on those threads just fine. Is there something that happened in the change that I missed? Or is there something wrong here? Thanks in advance.

 

[Fortress | Sveet]

Which threads were that?

 

[jfed8888]

One of them was the Super Smash Bros. Roster Maker thread by Jakor, I had posted a few months back, but it won't let me post now. http://www.smashboards.com/threads/...r-version-3-0-available.320445/#post-14277009

 

[Babatunde]
