Titles

Speaking of which, why don't you have a custom title, iron?

I nominate, "Benevolent Dictator".

My custom title was deleted when my reign as POG champion ended, which happened to coincide with becoming mod. I think I could get one from Ryan, but I'm a plebian at heart.

I think the * system in OOT is bogus and abused FWIW and would like to see that removed.

That's just crazy talk.

Dumb question, but what is the punctuation in Carpal \'Tunnel for? Gotta say I hate that and Pooh-Bah. Surely we can have better high-end titles than that.

Also not crazy about "member", which is an either-or thing not really a rank. Other than that the current system is not bad.

User-selected titles would be pointless.

Here's my suggestion:

0 railbird
10 stranger
20 newbie
40 part-timer
100 player
200 enthusiast
400 addict
700 veteran
1200 pro
1600 honcho
2500 degenerate

Robbing this guys ideas to one degree or another.

0 Railbird
50 Newbie
100 Stranger
250 Member
500 Enthusiast
1000 Grinder
1500 Veteran
2500 Expert
5000 Professional

I think Expert and Professional could be interchangeable given personal opinion, ive also changed the number of posts required for each level because it feels way too shallow.

I also think there should be something for 10k posts but im at a loss what this uber title should be.

Dear 2p2,

Everytime you change something it ends up sucking. Please stop changing things.

Why do these scales only cover beginners?

[Capitola]

A guy with 45 posts who's still a railbird? Doesn't fit.

Like any good MMORPG, the lower levels should be shallow. Make the upper end as steep as you like.

For a top level, how about Eye In The Sky?

I've never done anything worthy of a custom title, so it seems... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

This is pretty good phil. I especially like railbird and grinder being in there.

10,000 posts should be "Patrik Antonius". Traffic would double from people spam posting trying to get there.
