scottheisel Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Custom titles aren't ranked by post count; they just exist. Once you have one, that's what you have, no matter how many posts you make. It'll stay what it is until a mod decides to change it again. So what we're talking about is 1)starting to implement custom titles and/or 2)overhaul the title/post count system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I meant corresponding them with post count like they are now, but I don't really care either way. That was just an idea I was throwing out there.

riddle350 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Seeing Chris/benchwarmer's caption gave me an idea: What if the custom titles were Black Sabbath references? Iron Man would obviously be the top, then Supernaut, War Pig, Paranoid, and Snowblind. Chris could be "Hand Of Doom", Ben could be "Master Of Reality" and Virgil "The Wizard". I dunno, maybe that's lame but it was just a thought. You own a van with a painting of Thor on the side don't you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steventangent Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 Custom titles fall upon the mods to be creative -- any board I've ever been on with custom titles, usually they revolve around inside jokes or personality quirks of the poster in question. Like, the user doesn't pick their custom title; it's assigned to them by the mod, as a sort of "badge of honor."God, I'm such a nerd. THEN WHY DON'T I HAVE ONE ON THE AP BOARD.
