I know it's been like that for ages, but why do we need our own name emboldened? I know who i am. It's not as if i'd look at a list saying, for example "Milko, Dave!!, MrTrent" and wonder "shit, which one was I?" I'm not that much of a 'tard.

If you're clever enough to realise who you are then it's more than evident that the emboldened text isn't intended for the types of you isn't it?

I like your expression "the types of you" and will use it.
