my byline/descriptor changed to public safety diver?

[Grey Goose]

Hi,

I just saw that my byline thingy under my name is now public safety diver. I'm not. I didn't make this change and don't recall signing up to this group (if indeed it is closed), but might have signed up to lurk. Last I recall, my byline was DIR Practitioner (associated with one of the forums I signed up for). Don't see this byline listed under my personal details/preferences. Any thoughts on how this was changed without me knowing and how I can change back?

I have no idea why it changed but I removed it from your profile so you're back to DIR Practitioner.

You should be able to access PSD w/o joining if that was the trigger. Since it's a public group, it shouldn't have.

Just curious.

Why is my byline 'Angle Fish'.
I'm not a angel fish. Is there a way to change this, and how does this whole byline thing work.

Feel free to point me somewhere, if this has already been discussed or is documented. I did search Angel Fish.

You can change that by joining a sub forum (group) . The various fish are automatically generated based on post count number.

Or if you donate to the site you get the power to type a custom line there.

If my writeup up is unclear I'm certain someone will help guide you through the process. Feel free to ask here.

You can learn a lot by going to our short, but sweet user's guide: New to ScubaBoard and xenForo? Here's The Chairman's user guide...

Perfect, thanks for the response. It turns out I am a Angel Fish - by definition.

I think I must done the search incorrectly somehow the first time. Sorry to need you to point out the obvious and easy to find.

Thanks @northernone and @The Chairman

No need to apologize! You're asking a question dozens others want to know the answer to but are afraid to ask. "Why am I a Garibaldi?" is the most common question sent to Support@ScubaBoard.com. I am open to any suggestions on how to make it even more obvious and easy to find. I am also open to suggestions about any topics or clarifications that I should include in the user's guide. Any feedback is a bonus and much appreciated.

I was fortunate to get the manufacturers tag line. Otherwise, I might have been a sea slug, tunicate or some other invertebrate.
