It could be that some of those things only last as long as a sub/donation
lasts, but that's only me surmising. Looking at it I can only see that Sacot
and myself have our nyms in green (which could be because we're staff
members) whilst others are in plain text colour; as for lifetime VIP I
have no idea - Miss Kitti promoted me some years back and she's on a
leave of absence right now so I can't contact her.
About the rep I have no idea, I can see all of the reps but apparently they're
not visible to non-staff members whuch puzzles me; it looks as though they're
made of a compound of Messages and Reaction Score.
Like most sites this one will evolve over time - and this could be changes
that have been installed which may or may be permanent.
Until I hear from the Heracles (that's iTakes GLO staff nym) we shall be non
the wiser.
I'll post here as and when I learn something new.
