User Flair

Any interest in enabling User Flair?

It may be helpful if users could add flair pertaining to state, grade level, work group, etc.

It’s nice knowing what experience or perspective others speak from.

According to Reddits help page, a subreddit can have up to 350 selectable flairs.

50 States, then maybe an option for outside of USA?

Grade 1-7 designated by water or wastewater?

Grade A-D designated by water or wastewater?

OIT

Work groups: Operations, Maintenance, Electrical, Instrumentation, Engineering, Environmental, Industrial?

I'll send a message to the mods.

Yeah make a post about which categories you want to include. That way we can have some input. Not all of us are operators.

I'm not a mod but I did message them.

I'm wondering if we could all be responsible enough for them to enable custom flair, then you can write whatever you want.

I think selectable flair might get too complicated with so many states, cert types, work groups, etc.

Oh I didn't even know that was possible. That should work well. Seems to be pretty mature in this sub.

If people find some way to be idiots with their custom flair, they’re gonna be ignorant with their comments to so just ban them imo

u/CAwastewater 10h ago

Agreed.

I haven't heard back from the mods yet.
