I guess I could start a poll for what people want, but let's start with a few votes in this thread.

Options:

1. TS
2. OP
3. Or even spell out the whole thing like "Original Poster" or "Thread Starter"

Yes! Now that's what I call responsive! It's almost like we get a vote! Thanks, Nifty!

Okay, I vote for "OP."

Can you put it below the avatar instead of on it? That is the only thing i have heard people not liking is blocking their avatar.

OP... I think it's the most commonly used abbreviation on here. I like it as-is; nicely stuck in the corner... it's unobtrusive that way. Thanks!

I LIKE that!

A random symbol would be better than nothing, I agree. But it would be nice to use something that just about everyone is able to look at and guess what it means.

When I first saw the "TS" on the avatars, I had no clue. I tried to guess what "TS" could signify. I had settled on "Technical Support" until I saw so many "new eggs" with it. Then I gave up until I decided to run a BYC search for the term and found out what it meant today.

I actually came on this thread to ask why that box was at the corner of my profile image. Thanks for the info!

Now that I know what TS means, I am truly not fussed either way but if pushed to cast a vote, I say OP because more people appear to recognise what that is.
