Distinguished Road Info

Hey guys n gals,
Could someone please tell me what the story is re the new 'Distinguished Road' green tag/flag under all the members on screen details on the RHS is ??

Is this a new feature, 'cause I only noticed it today or has it been there since the 'change over' to our new home ??

Plus one last Q, what is the new function of 'Tag' at the bottom of each post page meant to do ??

PS: Thanks to all the admin and mod staff that perpetually back up and keep this great site running.

I was wondering about the distinguished road too; and the reputation points thing.

The tags are for the users to keep a note/keywords of the thread you're on, for convenience
I'm guessing when you search, the keywords will be crossed with a certain thread.

Wow, I didn't even see that rep thingy tucked away there. Wonder how that works

My understanding is that when you punch in words in the 'Search' box the key words are cross referenced with all history threads. Still not sure what the tags are there for

No doubt admin will pop in with an explanation soon enough.

After poking around the site a bit I found the following info about Reputation on the FAQ page, down at the bottom under User Profile Features
Xoutpost.com - FAQ: User Profile Features
It's self explanatory. I now understand that the Distinguished Road flag/tag is tied in with your Reputation.

So that just leaves the Tags issue to sort out.
