T17 GFX Crew (or Spam Patrol)

This new custom field was added to the topic view to enhance the awareness of T17 GFX Crew. For moderators and administrators we will be able to see hosted member's cPanel username as well. No other members can see this value, not even their own. This can cut down crucial delay time when members are request for hosting support. Instead of "what's your cPanel name" or trying to search the information from the profile, at a glance we can test the site by gamma.xisto.com/~cpanelname and such. And I no longer have to wait 1~2 days before a member can get back to me via PM, due to the sensitive nature of the information.

I hope you find this little addition to be fun and exciting.

The next step would be considering a small banner instead of the text "T17 GFX Crew." But this will have to wait until I check out the CPU load.

Ah, i was just about to question that.

But nice that we get to see honorary titles on the side. And spam patrol could have their own little banner as well, if possible.

Awesome. The cPanel username will help with support a lot, and the insignia should bring more attention to the graphics crew and spam patrol.

Good job Buff.
