Let's help Skydog think up some new titles.

Ones we must keep

Grizzled Veteran

New Ideas

Dolaposter Extraordinaire - for over 10,000, I'm thinking
Colossal Squid - perhaps 5,000+ or thereabouts?
GM, Owner, Head Coach, etc... - I actually liked these and think they have a place
Punter - for low levels?

And if I ever hit a point where that's my title, I'm quitting the board.

Well you only have 289 more posts then, so use them wisely.

We should just change the user titles to the names of the board's most notorious banned posters. Who wouldn't like to reach the level of Hornsmaniac or Mrs Kippy?

How about Substandard Protoplasm for the lower levels?

I also kinda liked the football-terms in the old titles.

I may go on a posting rampage and piss everyone off so that one of the user titles becomes "panerd". Isn't cocky and funny just proving how much we really love Hornsmaniac and want him back?

No. It's a homage to his unintentional comedy, and a reminder that there are people in this world who feel the need to lie about every aspect of their lives to make themselves seems more impressive than they really are.

I thought people were already PMing SkyDog and requesting their own titles (which is just sad, I think).

You could always do that. I thought there was mention of an option in the user control panel like the one to set your sig.

I've got a good suggestion for a custom title for k-smurf.

Im pretty tired of being Cocky and Funny, so if i have to dolapost to 5k over the next 2 weeks, so beit. And then i goddamn hope 5k isnt something stupid by then. I'd be happy with being "Brings a Sleeping Bag" permanently.

maybe not in yours, but i was definately part of a vbulletin board where everyone, even those not from georgia, could set their own special title to whatever they want.

by the time you got up to 5k, the titles will have changed and Cocky and Funny will be the new 5k

Shouldn't newbies be Forgets Sleeping Bag? Or forgets permission slip? Or Mom still calls about Sleeping Bag? Don't want to give newbs credit for anything do we?

I'm kindof opposed to the custom title for everyone idea. Nothing looks dumber than when a new guy with 200 posts calls himself "Mr FOFC" or something like that. I think titles should be fairly set in stone unless you're someone like Kodos or Quik who have "earned" their title (or lack thereof).

The whole point is that you aren't supposed to bring one.

It was originally proposed for > 10K.

Haven't heard a peep since.

What about the people who have earned their title by just asking for a title?

doesn't matter really and it looks like we aren't going to get any comment on the titles. they are what they are.
