If you were offered a custom title (or a different one for those smart-asses who have them already), what would it be?

CrowbarTK Hullo · 22nd March 2002, 20:01

papadoc · 22nd March 2002, 20:45

Old Man or Elder Statesman or something like that.
It really doesn't matter. Major Dude is ok I guess.
Reminds me of a real old saying...
"You can call me anything...just don't call me late for dinner."

That's a good question. I've been around here about as long as anybody, and I don't have any "custom title". What the hell is up with that?

Matt · 22nd March 2002, 20:52

Why some members get them and some don't is a good question.

KelseyB · 22nd March 2002, 20:55

"under new management".

just cause people would wonder, "what the heck does that mean?" and i'd be all like: "yo, its cause the management is new, foo" and all that.

or...

i could just earn one like everybody else that has one, and proally think of something better by then...

dylman · 22nd March 2002, 21:35

I'd like to stay as a Senior Member. It has a certain air of gravitas that I like.

he said that at 459 posts, so he has 40 left...

dylman · 22nd March 2002, 22:12

I've said before that I'll quit at 499 and start again as dylman2, but now that I'm nearly there I've changed my mind. I'll just start skateboarding instead and relish in my Major Dudiness

.

fish · 22nd March 2002, 22:17

Major Dud?

dylman · 22nd March 2002, 22:21

That'll do!

Huehuetenango · 23rd March 2002, 00:39

"i hate coffee"

(that's a joke b/c my name is also the name of a coffee, get it? get it?)

_Blackdog_ · 23rd March 2002, 00:45

on the ayua boards my title is resident idiot. i think it fits me pretty well.

Spiffed · 23rd March 2002, 00:55

whoa.. hard question...
i don't know, i think i'd go for something majorly unoriginal and go with something like um... Minor Dude

papadoc · 23rd March 2002, 00:56

Forget that elder statesman thing.
That's nothing like me
Maybe something to go along with my friend...

Keep on truckin'...

stttafffy · 23rd March 2002, 01:46

probably something like 'asshole' or stupid ass.

Hunter · 23rd March 2002, 04:55

How about hired protection or The Warrior Within

I guess I'll have to earn one huh

That's strangely close to my title of resident nvidiot at the x3dfx board.

Xerxes · 23rd March 2002, 05:44

I was thinking "goderator" but nah too obvious.

nature spirit · 23rd March 2002, 06:03

so.. where could we get applications for custom titles from?

do we need passport photos.. stamps.. anything?

[LMF]ZeroKool · 23rd March 2002, 16:17

If I have the chance to have a custom title,I would use

KLJS Inc.

Cleanup · 23rd March 2002, 16:34

[EDIT] Scratch that amount of posts remark. Yeah, why do some people get them and others don't? [/EDIT]

I'd like mine to be "MSPaint God"

Ra1nMaker · 23rd March 2002, 16:47

Humum.....

"A King Among Men"

apollos · 23rd March 2002, 16:56

mine would probably be
"dumbass in the house"

or

"ill probably be in atlantis"!

For most of you that wont get that, my previous username was inatlantis

Many people have asked so ill ask too, who gets custom titles and how? Im not fussed personally. Major dude will do me fine. Of course i wont have that title for a few more months.

binary hero · 23rd March 2002, 17:24

hey look. the three of the first four people to post all have custom titles and they can't read

maybe the secret of getting a custom title is not reading things, or ignoring the word DIFFERENT.

actually, i'd like a custom title of "different" or "special" or "gifted"

nature spirit · 26th March 2002, 13:08

I wouldnt really care about a custom title.. but im definitely curious to know the criteria of getting one.

why dont you --all frustrated non-title-customized forumers-- form an opposition front to retrieve your rights from the landlords?

(dont forget to propose a banner or a flag, a manifesto, and of course a revolutionnary name for the new front)

It goes back to the "Member of the Month" days. If you placed in the top three, you got one. I came in third.

I was a "Dirty Ol' Loser" LONG before the contest.

zootm · 26th March 2002, 17:59

"Idiot"

c2R · 26th March 2002, 18:54

I'd have "petrolhead" I think.

Bass Evolution · 5th April 2002, 15:09

) for a custom title

Rocker · 5th April 2002, 15:20

I had 2000+ posts...and nemissis, boplicity and griffinn beat me

Hunter · 5th April 2002, 15:27

Lord Of The Flies or Files

james · 5th April 2002, 15:30

Mine'd have to be 'Custom Titles Suck' ...

golferboy32531 · 5th April 2002, 15:37
