Rank and custom title are now both displayed

Okay, both custom member titles and ranks are now displayed in each message, unless you have no custom title, in which case only your rank is displayed.  

EDIT: The funny thing is that it works for me too.  I might have to change that...
Cool, eh?

EDIT AGAIN:  I added a special exception for me, being as I'm so "special" and "exceptional"  ;)

Kudos on your l33t programming skillz.

BTW, access to your site over the past few days (for me) has been gawd-awful sloooooooow.  Anything up on your end?  Any others with such issues?

My whole computer has been slow lately.  I think it's due to running 50+ tasks at the same time as my HD is full, it causes Win2k severe angst on where to swap and how to set the swap file.

I'm working on clearing up some more space.

How much RAM ya got in that box?  Need more?

256 meg right now.  

Another likely problem is that tons of people are uploading stuff from me on Morpheous and Bearshare all the time.  Probably limits the bandwidth severely on my cable modem.  I'm going to put some limits and try not to run both at the same time, maybe that'll help.

Well, I'm gonna say "well, duh!" to that.  :biggrin:

We would all thank you for that, but if your sharing stuff is more important to you than the webserver (hey, it's your box ;)), then I'd understand.

Cool. Now if you'd only add some more ranks above Admiral.

Suggestions for a completely redone rank system:

0-500: Crew
501-1000: Ensign
1001-3000: Captain
3001-5000: 1-star Admiral
5001-10,000: Admiral of the Fleet
10,000+: Supreme Postcount Whore

Obviously you'll have to change your custom title, JR; I propose changing it to

[color=red]Demon King of OSY[/color]

There, now it's back on topic.

It might be possible for me to add ranks later on, when there are too many admirals.  :)

Admiral numbers will be low for a while -- it's still quite some time until AYB reaches it, as he's likely to be first. I'll follow shortly thereafter, and then likely OW, if he sticks around.

DuffMan says he's going to be the first but I doubt it as he's behind OW by several hundred and I'm ahead of OW; and AYB's ahead of me by several hundred; everyone else posts too slowly to make it for quite some time.

Things could change, of course.
