Hey Everyone.
I was looking on my profile today and under General Information:

Referrals: 1

I saw the "Referrals: 1" thingy.
Does that mean someone referred to me or something?

Thanks,
- Nils.

No, what it means is that when someone signed up, they put your user name in the "Who referred you" box. So you've influenced someone, maybe a friend to sign up.

Aaron has it just right. It used to worry me cos it sounds like you've been reported or something, but in fact its a good thing, you've brought a new member to the site.

That's a signature. Not part of his actual post.
It's the thing that gets attached to the bottom of every post, if you choose. They're customisable if you go into User CP, then look for edit signature.
