So… we now have a CSS guru on our team, he took the above example and came up with this:

> .topic-post.regular:not([class\*=\_]) .username:after {  
> content: “user verification not started”;  
> /\* … \*/  
> }

All of our group names contain an underscore ‘\_’ which massively simplified the code.
