I've noticed that underneath some people's avatar's there are little boxes. Most often I notice just one little square that is white or really light yellow and then I just noticed someone who had like four or five progressing in color from the whitish to red. What are these and what do the signify (if anything). Give a noob a hand!

Those're warning boxes. They usually are just used for novelty around here. If a user has all of the red boxes possible (5?) that means they've been banned and it's no joke.

You can always go to the trade forum and check for bad traders if you're worried.

But nope, for the most part the boxes are just used for fun.
 
Wow. Very interesting. Kind of like a scarlet letter of sorts. Thanks for filling me in.

I always wanted those little boxes just because they look neat.
 
The mods had a little fun and got carried away with them when they first came out, handing them out to eachother like nothing. They were playing around, but many still keep theirs from that time. Atleast, i think...
 
can sombody with little boxy things please respond so i can see what you're talking about?

if you can find a post by him, bugweed still has the remains of the moderator games under his avitar, if his avitar is still around. The boxes are still there, i just checked.
 
For some unknown reason, I was always the most squared Mod. I guess it was the other mods way of showing their love and they loved me all the time.

I and all the other mods lost our squares when a certain powermad mod had his name turned red took all of our little squares of affection away.

On the off chance that you're not joking: Five boxes = ban. Looking to spend some quality time with "lol" and some other "forum favorites"?

Not sure what the box craze is all about. :shrug:

Besides, a word to the wise, the best way to get one is probably to make like you don't want one.

And before someone says anything, I'm not saying I don't care about them because I want one. lol
