Custom titles?
« on: August 06, 2009, 05:04:13 PM »
Would it be possible to grant users to give themselves custom titles after a certain amount of posts? I mean..."Wizard" is fine, but I like change every so often.

It's an interesting notion, but we decided early on that we don't want to give folks posting incentives.  They tend to decrease a message board's signal to noise ratio. :D

Yup.  Also, it helps distinguish the mods/admins for new folks.

So you're saying that if I had a title, I'd be even noisier?  :o

I think MSD should get a title.  She has a lot of posts.   A lot.




A lot.




But other than that, who needs it?

Yeah, but Germans and Hungarians don't pull people's theories out of their sockets when they're challenged.  Ducks are known to do that.
