So to clarify you want a database of usernames that are randomly generated at every x interval or x action? This goes further because you only want to target a a specific instance of one specific username? I think this might be better suited in the plugin development area with some further...

Usercp -> Account details -> Custom usertitle => change to what you want to show.

You can set the permissions to specific groups. This way, only those in the group can see that particular forum.

Hey friends, Just bought my first ever ergonomic mouse and keyboard. Anyone used this particular set up before? Looking forward to getting them delivered and testing them out. I know some of these bits of kits can be super expensive, I paid ~ £60 all in for the keyboard and mouse together. I...

Thanks for your suggestions all, I could definitely offer some merch out for events I plan on attending! Great idea.

Thinking about it, if you have already deleted the user - wouldn't that mean their user id is already deleted? Meaning that defining what posts to delete is going to be a challenge... Just some thoughts.

Will want to do some advertising over the next few months, with potentially a different competition every month with different prizes to keep it interesting. Does anyone have any experience or any suggestions on how best to approach forum competitions especially with IRL prizes?

Curating past topics is a very interesting technique and I can imagine that takes a lot of time. You see that technique applied to blogs, they have "the best forums to visit in 2023" but it was actually posted in 2019. They recognise that nobody is going to care about 2019 anymore a better...

Amazing! Thank you Tracy.

Cheers, Brad. Thanks for your kind words.

Thank you for vouching, Bob. Just reading up on it now and it looking at Tracy's website as an example - very impressive work! Might have to make the investment. Thank you Briansol. This is a very good recommendation, I will investigate what type of questions need answering and answer them on...

Thank you Tracy, I was originally just posting tutorials on a thread in the relevant forum. I will have a look into your suggestions now and action them in due course. I really appreciate you taking the time to educate me, thank you.
