i think that at some point, users should be allowed to change their title. maybe after they've reached 1000 posts, or something?
other forums have a thing where you can change your title/av, or someone else's title/av for a small fee (changing someone else's costs a bit more). perhaps we could do this, and donate the monies to a charity? just a thought.
That is exactly the reason why we shouldn't be allowed to change each other's titles...

I would be very afraid of what would happen here. I mean, I have felt the sting of just JOE being able to change my title, I dont want to know what the rest of you would do.
Oh, and BartMan will be getting his poll tonight also.

Okay, I am officially starting all that needs to be done for titles... right... now. We need 3 titles put up, 2 polls made, and Gegger has not contacted me so I am moving his thread for now.

... Oh great, MORE work. I suppose changing a title isn't too hard at least, but see all those polls and titles I just did? Between figuring out errors and setting them up properly, that took around 45 minutes. Its a time consuming process, and having people constantly asking to have titles changed might not make that easier.
OKAY! Title announcements... to make things easier.... which you may or may not see in the new polls/suggestion threads that will appear now....
All suggestion threads will last for 1 week, are closed, and the poll put up.
All poll threads will last for 1 week, then the title implimented.
This is reguardless of post count, as long as you have passed 200 and the two weeks have passed, its all good.

Nope It doesn't really affect other users, and as the "official" lead forum admin (as in, you all work for me, technically, by the power invested in me by Joe the Peacock), I make decisions like this Besides, the whole custom title thing was my idea anyway _________________ Help me GoogleBomb for Joe's publicity!
