You were probably listed as inactive in MAUL. When you logged into the site it set you as active. When you're set as active, MAUL will automatically place your tag in front of your name. If you haven't logged onto the site within 7 days it will set you as inactive and your tag won't show up.
Hm, okay is there any way of removing the tag from my name or no?
if that's the case do it in your profile settings.
