Used to say that under our avatars next to title, when we started a thread. Just asking for a friend.

You, sorry "your friend" needs to scroll down to the nest post that you, sorry "your friend" made in the thread.
 
Do I need to log out and log back in again, or something magical to see this ribbon?

Makes me look like a pirate 🦜☠️

But I don't want to be a pirate!

It’s not there in the avatar of the OP, but, as Joeseph pointed out, it is in subsequent posts of a thread starter in his thread. Michael, are you saying you don’t see the OP ribbon in posts #3 and #6?
Yes, I don't see the ribbon in posts #3 and #6. As a matter of fact, I don't see the ribbon in any thread (in subsequent posts of the thread starter).
 
I just checked and it looks like it's style dependent.
The ribbon shows when using the following styles:
  • Default Style
  • Classy
  • Shades of Grey
  • Shades of Grey (+ Font Size)

The ribbon doesn't show for all other styles.
 
I want my ribbon. 😥 I'll wait.

EDIT. I see my ribbons now with a different theme. :woot:

Yes. Different people designed different styles. I can flip a switch in each style to make the ribbon visible but the colours need changing too and we have an unwritten rule that you don't touch other people's styles, so we have to wait for the US crowd to come online, which will be in 4 or 5 hours, roughly.

Hehehe. I remember October.
 
The ribbon is turned off for the 3 styles:
- A Familiar Look
- A Classic Look
- Midnight Blue

Why? I don't like it covering the avatars :p
The better position for me (keep your dirty thoughts to yourself) is either top or bottom, but again, it covers a good portion of the avatar.
