@Icegoddess   ???  This indicates a mix of forums.

I see my name is not bolded, for shame.

I see Sunala is not bolded but that is a different forum.

I was only looking at this forum, Community Chat.

@Cakers3 , Correct.  At the top of the page under Blogs & Forums there's a folder called Forums.  That pic was taken from there.  I found it particularly appropo that your name was one of the ones not bolded because I took the snapshot in response to your post.

Me trying to figure this out:

               A user nickname will show up in bold text after the post count reaches a certain number.   

               That's the simple answer...  but then there's complication to follow.   

               If a nickname is listed multiple times (identical duplicates) in the user file, sometimes the list-of-threads display will pick up the one with the high post count and it will be in bold text, but other times it will pick up the one with a count too low for bold text.   (That means the displayed nickname isn't always the correct user file account.)

               The best way to look at that is to search for the user name (upper right corner of Community threads, and instead of searching on "Community" use the drop-down menu and search in "Users") and take a look at any duplicates.    You also can click on the nickname itself displayed in the list of threads and you'll see which user profile was accessed -- sometimes it's the wrong user account, so the list display is glitchy.    (It's another example of messy software design/management on this website.)

Looks like Suxela not Sunala...

But, tbh, at a glance I thought thread was titled *Dumb Broad Question*

[KingstonsMom]

@dooBdoo   Well, leave it to YOU to give us the "final" answer!
