Title

Instead of having to ask mods for changes in our titles, and to prevent newbies asking how they get it changed, can we have a 'forum title' option somewhere too?

I'm not so sure about this one aminal. I mean, if we gave people the ability to change their own title, Wonder might have to go back to flaming full time.

Indeed. We do practice censorship on titles,

I think it was morgana who posted something about earning titles containing references to royalty and such ... are you here morgue- baby?

I aggree with aminal it would be nice to have that power and who cares if someone wants to be the king or god or prince of somthing it does not mean they are.

i'm here now, sweets. i do NOT want that power out of the hands of the mods. we have enough problems as it is with the personal shit that goes on in here. all we need is for someone to change their title to: "i own ____" or "____can eat a dick". i think that having the title change a rare event is what makes it so special. i think there should be a specific day of the month that you can ask, and no other time, to make it even better. if you could change it other day, what would be the point?

hmmm... im kinda undecided on this one. i can see how making your own title would be a plus, then again its kindof like you do have to earn, or at least get your title approved the way it is.

One idea i had when i was writing the title scripts was to allow admins to grant people credits. one credit = one title change and you can go to options and use that credit whenever you want. i figured it added too much complexity, and we have alot of other things to finish before i make any more ubb changes, but maybe down the road...
