[Mod Post] Update Your User Flair

Update 06/17/2024: Per user request, we have added the following additional options:

  • You can now use N/A as a placeholder for any value you do not wish to include in your flair.
  • ABN (Atypical Bulimia Nervosa) has been added as an option for a diagnosis.

Update 02/02/24: We have two new diagnoses to choose from for your flair:

  • AAN (Atypical Anorexia Nervosa)
  • ARFID (Avoidant-Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)

Update 03/03/23: We fixed a bug that was causing AutoModerator to misinterpret the height portion of user flair requests in some cases. If your flair was configured incorrectly due to this issue, simply comment again on this post with what you'd like your flair to be, and it should update correctly.

Hello!

We are trying out a new way to let you update your user flair automatically.

Background: A former r/EDanonymous moderator developed the current Flair Bot program, and they have graciously kept it up and running even after stepping down from other mod responsibilities. While the Flair Bot works beautifully, it requires a moderator to keep the program running on their computer 24/7, which is why we designed the new process to use AutoModerator instead.

To set or change your user flair, simply add a comment to this post with what you'd like your new flair to be. Your flair must be entered in the standard format as explained below. Comments with invalid flair requests will be ignored. As long as the flair you request is correctly formatted and meets all validation criteria, it will be updated immediately, and you will receive a confirmation reply from AutoModerator.

r/EDanonymous Flair Format:

[HEIGHT | AGE, GENDER | DIAGNOSIS | BMI CATEGORY]

Accepted Values:

HEIGHT:       Between 3'0" and 7'11"
AGE:          Between 13 and 99
GENDER:       F, M, NB
DIAGNOSIS:    AAN, AN, AN-R, AN-B/P, BN, BED, EDNOS, OSFED, ARFID
BMI RANGE:    UW, N, OW, OB

Examples:

[5'9" | 26F | AN-R | UW]

[6' | 30M | BN | N]
[5'0" | 33F | AN-B/P | UW]
[5'11" | 21F | BED | OW]

Each Value Is Optional

Use X or N/A as a placeholder for any information you prefer not to include in your flair. The following examples are all also valid:

[N/A | 20 | EDNOS | N/A]
[X | X | AN | UW]
[4' | NB | N/A | N/A]
