There are a variety of symbols that may appear next to deviants’ usernames, which act as indicators of their status, be it DeviantArt staff, Community Volunteer, Senior Member, or Core Member.

You can hover over a symbol next to someone’s username to learn what it means, or you can click on the symbol to see a full list of username symbols and what they mean (also pictured below).

Regular deviants who do not fit into one of the above categories will not have a symbol next to their username. Deactivated and banned accounts have a single line through their username, and the username cannot be clicked.
