2 Easy Questions: Community Username and SRS

  1. How do I update my USERNAME in the BP Community? I have tried everything and cannot locate an update for this item.

  2. I haven’t wrapped my head around SRS yet and go with the flow, but I’m starting to get frustrated that I cannot recall specific grammar points. What should my SRS STRICTNESS be generally?

I appreciate your help!

In your Preferences, in the Account category, at the top is your username. And next to it is a pen icon. Click it to get to an input field that lets you change your name.

Can’t help you with your other question.

Mine does not have a pencil mark next to the username to edit, did you do something to enable that functionality?

Same issue. It’s nowhere to be found! It’s not that important, but 11441 is dumb. It was not like this in the past.

Looks like it gets locked a wee while after account creation.
DM me and I can change it for you!

You mind explaining this question a bit more? Also, are you using Ghosts?

Hey @EdBunpro, I guess I am trying to communicate that I understand the basic premise of SRS, but I feel like I am not maximizing its potential. I didn’t think too much about this until I noticed the “SRS Strictness” option within the menus. Then I began panicking! I have no idea what this option should be. I am in absolutely no hurry to burn through levels, but instead, I want to set myself up to help with long-term retention and fluency. I think I was feeling inadequate at the moment and was second-guessing my setup on BP. Is there a “standard” strictness level one should use, generally? As I said, I do not desire to burn through levels but instead value retention and conversational fluency.

Oh, and Ghosts, I have no idea about :joy:I use them, but again, I have not customized these settings.

I would say leave your settings at their defaults, and if you notice any inadequacies, you can re-adjust.

For reference, some use-cases for altering each feature:

  • SRS Strictness
    • When you don’t have so many Reviews each day because most of the content you’ve done is already at a high level, and when you do get something wrong, you want the item to drop more significantly, so you get tested on that missed content sooner
  • Ghosts
    • Reduce to Minimal or Off if you notice you have too many Ghosts piling up, and it’s greatly affecting your regular Review schedule negatively
