These I like. Maybe not Rectum Trout (tho maybe at 200)- just don't like that Rectum in there. Sounds too vulgar for something "official".

Maybe "Non-Colossal Squid" at 2000. You're not a colossal squid but you're better off than knowing what dola means and you're on your way to being "cocky and funny"

Problem with "wordsmith" is that it doesn't have anything to do with your prolificacy as a poster as these do. In fact, if people go nuts trying to post to get a better title, their writing will likely not be the work of a wordsmith.

SI

Flasch186
11-21-2005, 04:10 PM
huh?



pro·lif·ic Audio pronunciation of "prolificacy" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pr-lfk)
adj.

1. Producing offspring or fruit in great abundance; fertile.
2. Producing abundant works or results: a prolific artist. See Synonyms at fertile.


I guess now that im more learned i can say......EXACTLY!! I dont post for post's sake. I post to make points and while most of my posts are shotgun like in politics threads, I have more facets than that. Im a varied bird and I think wordsmith was someone else's suggestion anyways. I like it though. unique.

sterlingice
11-21-2005, 04:23 PM
I figured you were referring to having one of the above numbered titles (1K, 2K, etc) being "wordsmith" and my point was that I don't think a person's ability to post lots of times should get them the title wordsmith, rather the quality of their work.

As for getting custom titles for everyone. Boo on that. I think the people that have gotten custom titles in the past have "earned" theirs in one way or another and to let just anyone get one cheapens it.

sterlingice
11-21-2005, 05:19 PM
When trying to come up with these, quit trying to make the coolest one the one that you're at. The higher up the tree you go, the better it should be so that there's none of this "I don't want to move up because it's worse than my last title".

If I were Skydog-for-a-day, here's what I would do. Of course, there's copious stealing from previous posts. The number in parens would be the number at that level currently.

(???) 0 Brings a Sleeping Bag
(2??) 100 Concealed Trout
(9?) 500 Non-Colossal Squid
(81) 1000 Knows what "dola" means
(63) 2000 Cocky
(34) 3000 Funny
(19) 4000 Cocky and Funny
(17) 5000 Grizzled Veteran
(09) 7500 F'in Elitist
(10) 10000 Custom?

Is it possible to have it check more than just post-count to determine the title? I'm thinking it would be cool to look at sign-up date as well, so for people that have been around for like 5 years and only have 100 posts it could say "super-lurker" or for guys that have like 5000 posts in the first year it could say "post-whore" or something.

Add me to the list of people who think that the new titles are worse than the old ones and if people get to have custom titles there should be a dispensation for longevity.

I think it's crap to say that I'm "learning the ropes" when I've been around for all the good shit. Like EA saying people who paid money with their credit cards for a game were pirates. Dave Dial. Hell I was around when DOLAMITE was actually posting.

I suggested, and never recieved a respone for SkyDog, a long time ago that there be a custom title option.

And I don't like being cocky and funny. It adds pressure to each post I will make, which probably won't be funny even though I now feel I must be.

I have always dreamed of my own personal title though. Lot Lizard would work. :D

Oh how I wish. I could get wireless at truckstops but that's too much money and since I drive team usually I am not at them long enough to spend $25 a month.

I do check league boards and sometimes FOFC on my cell phone, but FOFC is a bit of a pain to navigate on the cell phone so I don't check it often. I think it's the vBulletin that makes it harder, along with the size. The MP leagues are all on phpBB and smaller so they are easy on my cell phone. Plus it sucks to read stuff and want to post a response, but because I can't log in I can't post.
