The inbox shows you post that you have commented on, but does it allow you to write other individuals on the platform? Someone asked me to look something up on newspapers.com and I wanted to share the answer in a private message.
What is flair and how do you use it? (I don’t want to be over flaring 🤣)The only flair I know about is the ‘flair in the movie “office space” lol
I had to stumble around in the dark for a while before figuring that one out... One day I found th whole other universe of .wins and was rewarded with a video of a guy skipping a .50 BMG off of an in-ground swimming pool... Sometimes stumbling around opening doors is incredibly rewarding!
So when you have numbers on the bell, does that mean you have that many messages? I've never looked lol. I don't like private messaging anyway so I've never been curious enough to click on it.
We need to talk about your flair. 15 is the minimum. M'kay? It's up to you if you want to do the bare minimum. Brian for example, has 37 pieces of flair, and a terrific smile. Here at the Great Awakening we just want you to express yourself.
QUESTION (for me): How do you add the tiny graphic before your user name (like you have)? Do you need special privileges, or just hard-to-find know-how?
I believe the limitation is technical - IIRC CSS file was getting huge or something? (In which case I have a couple theories on how that might be fixed but I'd have to actually understand the real problem first.)
Perhaps with recent styling overhaul mentions/new GIFs etc this is in work?
Welcome! What questions do you have?
We’re glad you’re here!

Yes, u/GodBlessTheUSA22
Click the "Bell" icon. On the top, you will see "create message." Click that and then enter the name of the user you want to directly message.
Awesome!!!! Thank you so much.
Anytime, fren. Welcome to the community!

That’s just the number of responses to a comment or comments you have made. If you click on it it will show you the responses.
Yes, the number on the bell says how many people have commented on your posts or if you have a direct message. I think it tops out at 9.

Thou doth not choose one own's avatar, thine avatar chooseth thee.
Yes. And mods decide when and if. I think they did pepes like a year ago and not since.

Need to ask a mod.
Thanks!
Sometimes things happen. Right place right time.
The mods here may give you one, in time. You can’t add them yourself.
You have to be very special i guess. Maybe have a certain Karma level idk.
