A Question For the Moderators
This is by no means a complaint about the Forum and how it works. Quite the contrary. I find the details expressed and the chit chat between members very good and entertaining. :2tsup:
My question is regarding ones status as printed next to the avitar. My designation is "novice". If thats referrring to my activity on the Forum then thats OK,:U But when I read it, I get uneasy on my chair because I have been in the carpentry trade for 40 years and being referred to as a "novice" doesn't fit right. :no: (Yeh, I know I am thin skinned and take things the wrong way) :doh:
Can I change the status to something more fitting like.....Dopey Old Phart...? :p If so how do I do it?
Regards Rod

I commented to him on how mine looked pretty awful compared to his and when I, niavely asked him how he got such a nice colouring to his saw he said....."Use the bastead!"
Kind regards Rod
