It came to my attention recently that some people actually DO NOT like that they have a visible "medal" near their nick when they have premium membership.

So, I made some changes and now you can turn it off in your account settings. (Menu: Membership->Edit Account Settings).

However, I might make some errors during this upgrade, it was a core feature and it's been a long time since I made any changes there, so I might miss something.

Please do not hesitate to report any errors if you encounter them with your premium membership.
