What About Moderators in the New Forum?

Test post from down in the sunny South Pacific.......

Hey Oz. I will ask about that. But I don't know for sure.

Awww, do I have to? I will forever be Cindy-.

Guess, you had better "migrate" then, Cindy?

:)

Hmmmmmm

In imported posts, would it be (a) possible and (b) desirable to have in the text of the post the name of the original person posting, even if the new system displayed that "guest" name in the member name part? So it wouldn't know who Cindy was but it would simply pick up the info from the current system as a bit of text, put quotes either side of the name, and add the word "wrote " -

Eg (very crude mockup)

What happens if you do not link to an Adobe ID?

Ok, you're boxing me in....:)

All of your old messages pulled in from this system will say "Guest" next to them instead of showing your name.

What happens if you do not link to an Adobe ID?

You are supposed to be using your Forums login here. Linking the accounts has no visible effect on these forums. Continue to use them as usual.

All the linking does is tell the two forum systems that you are the same person when it combines the content of the two existing forums in April. Until that point, everything remains as it was.
