This section allows you to select which [[tattoo]] you'll be displaying to the Kingdom when someone views your [[profile]]. They're listed in alphabetical order of the image files, which keeps all the softcore ascension, [[hardcore]] ascension, class-related and [[A Battlefield|Cola Wars]] tattoos together, while the others will seem more or less just tossed in there.

==Edit your Player Profile ==
=== Notes ===
* Reset Ascension sends you straight to [[Beyond the Pale|Valhalla]].  You will not have any opportunity to manage your mall store, pick up skills, and so on.  If you want to do things before being reborn, you should drop restrictions first.
* Reset Ascension is only available after 11 days and only after ascending at least once.


This allows you to change the little section of personal information in your [[Profile#Public_Profile|public profile]] - age, actual gender (as opposed to [[Gender_Differences|in-game gender]]), location, website and quote. If any of this isn't filled out, it won't appear in your profile.

This is just so you can go from being boring old "Properly Capitalised Player" to the new and exciting "ProPERLy cAPiTALiSEd PlAyEr".

'''Correspondence Options'''
==Manage chat colors==
*Choose your Active Correspondent
 
**PenPal
This option allows you to set the colour of [[chat]] channel names, among other things. Those other things being your name, your contacts, and other people in general. It makes it easier to distinguish between channels that you're listening to without actually reading anything.
**GameInformPowerDailyPro Magazine
 
**Xi Receiver Unit
==Manage your chat macros==
**New-You Club
 
[[Category:Basics]]
This option allows you to manage up to twenty different (or the same, I guess) macros. See the in-game documentation, linked to from the actual in-game chat macro management page for details on chat macros.
 
==Turn on/off profanity filter==
 
If your profanity filter is on, you won't see any profanity in chat and private messages. Instead, the offending word will be replaced with some &@%!#$* !@#$ or another. Prior to [[History_of_Loathing_(2004)#December_2.2C_2004|December 23, 2004]], entire messages would be replaced by the simple word [profanity].
 
If the profanity filter is off, you'll be able to see naughty chat messages in all their damn glory.
 
==Show/Hide your familiars==
 
If your [[:Category:Familiars|familiars]] are shy, or if you participate in [[PvP]], or if you're just feeling ornery, you can choose to hide the contents of your [[Familiar-Gro Terrarium (Campground)|terrarium]]. Or, if the truth is actually the opposite of what was just said above, you can choose to allow everyone to look at your familiars.
 
==Disable/Enable auto-attack==
 
With auto-attack disabled, you'll be able to choose what your opening attack is if you win [[Maximizing Your Combat Initiative|iniative]] - attacking with your [[:Category:Weapons|weapon]], using a [[:Category:Skills|skill]] or [[:Category:Combat Items|combat item]]. If this option is enabled, you'll simply automatically attack with your weapon.
 
==Toggle progress bars on left pane==
 
This will allow you to choose which, if any, of the following progress bars are displayed on your character pane: progress towards your next level, progress to your next [[Muscle]], [[Mysticality]] or [[Moxie]] point, and progress towards your current [[:Category:Familiars|familiar]]'s next pound.
 
==Switch to compact mode/Switch back to full mode==
 
These options determine how you view the Kingdom. It's easier to view them in-game than it is to explain them.
 
Full mode shows mostly everything. For instance, all the main areas are text links in the top pane, you can view your character's [[avatar]] in the character pane, and [[HP]], [[MP]] and [[adventures]] are clearly labelled.
 
Compact mode is generally for those more experienced with the game, and shows nearly everything in as small a space as possible. Links to main areas are contained within a drop-down list in the top pane, your character's [[avatar]] is hidden, and [[HP]], [[MP]] and [[adventures]] are squeezed into a smaller space.
 
==Change your time zone==
 
As the name implies, this option lets you change your time zone in relation to [[wikipedia:GMT|GMT]], which will display things such as event notification and sent or received K-mail relative to your time.
 
==Change your password==
 
A standard password-changing option and format, you can change your password. Just supply your old password, then the new password, then confirm the new password.
 
==Ascension options==
 
If you've ascended, and have chosen to do either or both of a hardcore or pathed ascension, you have the option to quit either or both of those here.
 
===Return to normal mode===
 
This will let you opt out of hardcore and return to a normal (a.k.a. softcore) ascension. Please note that the [[ascension#Ronin_Phase|ronin]] counter still counts down even if you play hardcore, and you may find yourself in [[ascension#Ronin_Phase|ronin]] if you exit hardcore before the counter reaches zero.
 
===Leave the path===
 
This lets you opt out of the [[teetotaler]], [[boozetafarian]] or [[oxygenarian]] paths, and return to eating food and drinking booze whenever you feel like it.
