Hello visualAd,
MartinLiss has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - User Status - in the Chit Chat forum of
VBForums.com.
When I got to the thread your user name was Adidic so I thought maybe your name is Martin Liss.
Nope. When you have email notification turned on for a thread, or it's turned on by default, whenever anyone posts after you in a thread, you will get that notification. It doesn't have to be the last poster in the thread. So if your post was replied to by MartinLiss, followed by a number of other users, you would still get a notification only for MartinLiss' post and not of the subsequent posts. The email text should probably highlight this that the notified post may not be the last post, and that you will have to visit the thread page to view other replies.Quote:

There had only been one reply since my last post though. :rolleyes:
Is MartinLiss a user then?
Or is it a customized name?
He is a user. More appropriately, you could call him the God over here :pQuote:

Well, he is a moderator (have you been promoted to an administrator yet, Marty?) here, and apart from the moderation skills he does seem to know a little bit of VB, API and that sort of thing that seems to go on here all the time....

My name is Martin Liss and in one of my less-creative periods I chose MartinLiss as my user name.Quote:

Can you change your username, or do you need Administrative rights?
Sorry - thought your user name was "Super Moderator" but that's your status :(Quote:

That's correct and then user names are only changed when there is a very good reason.
And when the stakes are sufficiently high :pQuote:

OK, that was a joke :) Seriously I think there have been just two instances where usernames of existing users were changed and I think it was done on the request of the respective users.
Frankly if you chose a bad username, the usual practice has been to create a new user account for your desired username and use that.
