Okey then, I seem to have come again when no one's around.
*spies Crescent's cup, takes big slurp*
...ahh,
anyway, sorry 'bout yesterday. I've got to get used to these forums. Been on the Web for ages now, but still don't know a thing about this stuff.

Looks like this place has given up the ghost. I'm moving on to the New Users April 7th forum now.

What does ACE signify? And why do you put it in your title?

Demon Drawer Posted Apr 7, 2000
Hi Jazz, I'll answer that ACE stands for Assitant Community Editors. We're humble researchers like yourself who volunteered to meet and greet new comers to the guide to show you the ropes so to speak. Some of us add ACE to our title some don't but we all have an Orange Badge on our page so you know you've found one.
The reason some of us but it in our name is so that anyone who is looking in the who's online window can easily identify an ACE who's online and ask a question and get a reasonably quick response. Hope that clears things up a little.

ACE signifies Assistant Community editor... the Aces help Peta, the community editor (visit her at http://www.h2g2.com/U24 ) meet & greet new users, and generally wander round and attempt to be helpful. The ACEs have a homepage here: http://www.h2g2.com/A214796
Some of us who are ACEs put it in our titles to show everyone else that we are, so's if you have any questions its immediately obvious that we'll answer or whatever.
Hope this helps

Of course we don't all get a shiny orange badge on our page....
*sniff*, not those who are Sub Editors too.
Where is my orange badge!?!?!?!?!
Right damnit, I'm starting a movement right here, right now!
It's the ATSOBOSHP!
Or Allow Two Sorts Of Badges On Someone's Home Page!
Who's with me?!

They should design a new badge, half ace half subbie.
*moderate sympathy*
New Users 3rd April 2000
Hatman ACE Posted Apr 9, 2000
A combined Badge Yeah that could work! A sub-ACE perhaps.
But I have continued with my ATSOBOSHP campaign and created a page on H2G2, go here now!

Hi Joanna,
My grandson is in your year at Durham.
Nice to meet you
New Users 3rd April 2000
J'au-æmne Posted Apr 9, 2000
Nice to meet you too, Jazz...
I wonder if I know him... would be strange
New Users 3rd April 2000
Jazz Posted Apr 11, 2000
I'll give you a clue - he is local. From County Durham!
New Users 3rd April 2000
J'au-æmne Posted Apr 11, 2000
*tries to think if she knows anyone from county Durham*
Hmmmm....
I guess that should narrow it down... but then again there are 10,000 students.....
