Any chance of color coding the rank names so some of us can recognize the rank without actually looking at the rank next to the name?

I know i've asked you once, how to embed and you did give me the correct steps to do it. It worked up to the preview tab of the new posting, then stripped out after clicking the "Post" button.
So, asked the board to see if something was missing in my case. Its the "CL" status . But you do deserve a
COOTIE
...OOPS I mean, KUDO!!!....

You mean as a "Cootie Logon"? Nawww! you "get the cooties" when you solve a quesiton and the originating poster or someone in the string can click that KUDO button and you gain a badge.
LOL, you mean a different logon for ranks: nope, same logon, its the number of responses you rack up on the board. (Hint: Lounge responses dont rank (well dont count at least but some may "rank" rank)

Hi coolrhyme,
There isn't a different login for AT&T employees. All AT&T employees on the forums will have the following statement in their signature - I am an AT&T employee and the postings on this site are my own and don’t necessarily represent AT&T’s position, strategies or opinions.
If you are an employee, please send me a private message so we can get you set up properly.
