Could someone tell me what the wee icons mean next to each Chatters name in the chatroom? I have trawled around the forums (fora?) to no avail.
Yours curiously ...

Blue symbol of Mars = single male account
Blue cross = single male account with the extras pack
Pink symbol of Venus = single female account
Pink cross - single female account with the extras pack
Combination of the two mars/venus = couples account
Combinations of pink and blue crosses = couples account with extras pack.
Yellow stars = Chatroom Ops
Yellow Ball with sunglasses = admin

Is this in any of the Help docs anywhere? If not, maybe someone could put it there. If it is, then just ignore me ...

No it isn't, but using pink and blue colours is an accepted form of denoting male or female in society, so when coupled with the usual form of showing male and female symbols of Venus and Mars, one would think it easy enough to work out dunno

As a new member for the past week I have to disagree partly with the above statement.... It's not that it's hard to work out male from female in the chatrooms, what is difficult to initially understand is the significance of the male/female symbol opposed to the blue/pink crosses.
I have been going on the chatrooms and wondering why I have a cross next to my name instead of a male symbol. I knew why it was a BLUE cross, but I think the use of an X is probably a bad choice as it looks like a slight against your name (at least, to a new member it does!).
It's just taken me 20 mins to find this explanation! Perhaps a note in the chatroom rules may help future members to understand more easily the meaning of the symbols?
Anyhow, thanks for a great site admin guys & girls!
Mike.
I've just put up a help article which covers what the chat room symbols stand for, to help those new or old members who are unsure.
What a great response, much better than some of the unhelpful replies often seen.
Well done
But as a gay couple why don't we get 2 blue crosses....no folks we would not prefer 2 pink ones!!
