Re: Titles
How about two or three different "sets" of titles?
Keep the original, addict, old hand, pooh-bah, etc. Allow users to pick a new set of titles still based on post count, like the Punch Out one or maybe an inside joke one like SomethingClever suggested. I am sure vB has some sort of mod to handle this. This gives users a little bit more freedom while not going all out and letting everyone pick a title. I say keep mod set titles as well.

Taking from the ideas I liked, may I propose this setup: 0 railbird 10 stranger 25 newbie 50 player 100 member 250 enthusiast 500 addict 1000 grinder 2000 veteran 4000 *various 10000 **custom * at 4000 posts the poster would get the title "Pooh-Bah", unless, that is, if they have made over 50% (too high? 35%? 40%) of their posts in a certain area of 2+2. With the majority of their posts in these sections they will get the following instead of Pooh-Bah: community: railtard limit strat: poo flinger NL strat: bold and aggressive STT strat: ROI obsessed MTT strat: lol donkaments ** at 10,000 posts any user would get the ability to set their own custom title. I think this has many advantages, including a nice progression given the higher # of 2+2 posts in general since the titles were originally set up, a way to pick out the BBVtards and OOTtards from the serious strat posters, and a cool reward for the true nutbags. $0.02 [/ QUOTE ] I actually think something similar to this would be pretty cool. Not that I really care, I guess, since I'll never reach any of the higher levels.

Teh Sandwich Artist Formerly Known As AngryCola, I think given the "creativity level" of some folks on this site, allowing people to customize their titles is a bad idea. They already have the Loc: field as it is. Also, undertitles being a carrot you can dangle to reward good posters is a somewhat valuable tool to have. [/ QUOTE ] Loc should actually be Loc based on the poster's IP.

It is nice to have this field be a place for official designations, like technologic "2006 WSOP ME Final Tabler" or Matt Flynn "Co-Author of PNL." The vast majority, of course, are monikers earned in the various forums, but that's fun, and the real value there is that they were assigned, not chosen. [/ QUOTE ]

are post counts being reset as well? [/ QUOTE ] no, but the 50-100 posts everyone makes about how much they hate the new software will disappear from the post counts after they switch back to the old software.
