That’s because you don’t ask about sect names. It says so right there.

If I may ask, how do you still have access to the original FAQ and guide? There are some parts of it that I have been dying to see and I can’t because they’re not in the Knowledge base.

I do wish it still said “Sect” before the sect names. Then maybe fewer people would think my name is James.

So do I, James. So do I.
Also, Antonio (or as some call him, @Darcinon), are you feeling better?
I wonder if people think my name is “Regular”…

I was looking at my WaniKani profile and it still says Sect Turtles. So I searched the forum and found old posts about sects, and @Leebo quoted the FAQ and I just copied it from his quote.
Or photographic memory. But that can’t be true because I’m kind of terrible at WaniKani.

Your name is definitely James. Just because you think otherwise doesn’t make it not so.

Oh wow, I didn’t even notice that. The profile page is part of the old site, so it’s probably still connected to the sect system somehow. That’s so cool. On the forums, now that they’re using Discourse, you can choose between different titles if you’ve earned them, but on the old forums you only had that one sect name. Sect Turtles is the one that means “hey, this person is a subscriber”. I think Guppies was the one that free members had, those were the basic ones. IIRC the lifetime members also had a sect, but I can’t for the life of me remember it, since I earned Crabigatorism I’ve forgotten about it.

This wasn’t the case when I joined. I got lifetime as soon as I made this account, which was Dec 31 2016, and I was Turtles until I got my current sect. Though I don’t know about what happened before that

Well duh. Since you live in Japan it’s clearly ジェイムズさん.

You might be right. It’s been so long ago there’s many things I don’t remember. The sad thing is, I can’t even picture in my head how the old forums even looked like. I forgot it completely 
I can’t even remember if we had color coding on the levels like we do now. sigh

What kind of bad things happen when you ask for a sect name? I’ve been a part of the turtle sect for 5 years, I want to move on and experience new things

I thought the forums only changed over like last year
I think it’s was like 2017? when they changed.

There was one guy who asked about sect names and he got the sect name “Sect Name” so he was “of Sect Sect Name”
