    The option to display your ticker in your sig has been removed. You can link the ticker via BBCode manually each time you post.

    How do you do this? I feel like a complete idiot... But what is a bbc code and how do you link it?

    When I first started here, I thought they were annoying, too. But then I thought it might be fun to watch my progress on it...and it was! :)

    I miss them.

    I removed my comment on how to display the ticker. Someone actually flagged it.

    This explains everything. Babies are notoriously terrible at internetting.

    I miss the tickers they were really helpful to let you see who had goals similar to you own

    Did mine from my I pad. Somehow I added the mumbo jumbo too. Lol

    And now I wished I would have screen shot that ticker every time it moved. I am near the finish line!

    They just clutter things up in my opinion. I would rather them do something to put it over near our avatar instead.
    Oh that's a good idea.

    I have mixed feelings about them myself. I think if people are posting a lot in the a thread, I don't need to see their ticker over and over. And I noticed there was this tendency on some people's part to believe anything someone who had lost a lot of weight said... as if losing 100 pounds made one an expert in everything. B)

    But I like having them to some extent. I just think there had to be a better way to do it and your idea of having some info under the avatar seems like a good compromise.
