Status?

What does "Status" line mean in your user profile? How do you change it?

Sorry, I think I should have put this in the FAQ forum.

It's your last name and is only visible to TDR members. A number of years ago we were considering requiring everyone to use their real names instead of usernames to minimize moderation problems from people posting with anonymity. Users made it clear they didn't want that so we put last names in the status field and had that come up under your username in posts. Again, users didn't like that because everyone could see it. So we took it off of posts and left it on the profile screen.

Thanks Steve, I'm still learning this stuff.
