Your "Grenadier STATUS" banner (ownership numbers)

[Stu_Barnes]

So with the migration from the last platform to this one there is a need to update your account details if you wish.

This is for your avatar, profile banner time-zone etc.

There is also an option to let everyone know if you're a reservation holder or not and give you a lovely green banner. This at the moment will be a manual update to get the banner that I'll be doing daily for the first week then weekly after that until I can get some sort of automation worked out.

Just click on your username on the top right hand of the home screen / preferences / account settings

Have a look around at the options as you can tailor quite a bit to how you would like the forum information presented.

Have you considered “Grenadier Ordered” for those who have paid deposits / signed contracts ?

 

[Stu_Barnes]

I was thinking of following the order process

Reservation Holder
Grenadier Ordered
Grenadier Owner

If anyone would like to chime in then thats ok, but at the moment this is a totally manual process so there may be a bit of lag with your updated 'banners'

 

[Spjnr]

Ordered and Owner should be mutually exclusive, so as to avoid clutter IMHO.

Is that what you mean?

 

[emax]

And if you own one and have ordered another one?

Not (yet) a point, I know. But ...

Then nobody wants to hear you gloat

 

[Stu_Barnes]

How about…

Reservation Holder
Order Placed
Grenadier Owner

There’s a special place reserved for gloaters to be flamed by the community @emax

Very grateful for all the work you admins put into running the site. Many thanks to you.

How do I change from ‘Weekend Warrior’ to ‘Reservation holder’?

 

[emax]

Different things.

"Weekend Warrior" changes if you have written the number of posts required for the next 'rank': Grenadier
"Reservation Holder" is an attribute independent from that. You can tick the box "Reservation holder" in your profile.

How do I change from ‘Weekend Warrior’ to ‘Reservation holder’?

Go to your account settings and select the field for reservation holder and update it to yes.
Every few days or so I'll batch update the forum to reflect the new 'banners'

And it is done.

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

Good idea, who will be the first to change to owner???

 

[emax]

Wait until I get my 1:18 version ...

@Halliwell Jones Chester
Your new Ineos building looks awesome!

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

Thanks @emax
Should be great when it's all done, I will hopefully be doing a project time lapse or build update thread once it gets going.

That's if people would be interested?

 

[Spjnr]

Probably a German with September build date?? We Brits seem to be mainly October onwards

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

Maybe the first owner on here could have a special badge under the name "chosen one"

I am interested as well what delay there will be between the first dealer presentation cars and the first end user cars.
My dealer here told me that they hope to get the first cars in the end of August. This become more and more unrealistic to me.

As I was told the British gained some perfection in establishing interesting bets during the last centurys.
As there are hardly any news regarding the IG and we are all writing and reading more or less in circles since two month. We need some interim fun.
Anyone has an idea for the best IG bet?

 

[Halliwell Jones Chester]

We are still under the impression that sometime in September we will see our demonstrators. No exact date confirmed but as soon as I do I will let you know.

If Sir Jim would chime in then I'll gladly give him that banner.

Until then let's try and keep this on topic....please
