Custom User Titles

I was wondering if we could be allowed to have custom user titles below our usernames. I think if would be really cool for everyone to be able to have one. A lot of other forums have them. >_>

It would give each user a unique status rather than just everyone just having the same user titles we have now.

I support the idea. I don't think user titles or whatever they are called are very significant, but I'd rather not have absolute otaku under my username lol :o

I like the idea, but I really don't mind the way it is right now. Keeps me from having to make up a title. :heh:

this forum is so greedy. i hope you guys know that the user titles you have now, we all fought to get. there was a huge topic conversation, and all that jazz. and at that point in time, didnt we settle upon the idea of no custom user titles?

im all for expressing personality, but come on, guys. this place is to discuss anime, and get to know a person or so while doing that. we dont need all this unnessecary crap on the forum. it would just make it more confusing, slower, and a lot more complicated of a forum than it should be.

Second. :(

Why cant we be happy with what we have now instead of looking at other forums and envying them? Hell.. in my point of view, this forum is fine with how it is.. Sure. Being stuck with Absolute Otaku must be annoying but oh well. ^.- It's fine. It's not killing anyone. :(

And how exactly do custom users titles infringe upon this?

Not really. It would allow users to express themselves more.

Why don't you want to improve the forum and make it better? There's no envy taking place here. Custom user titles aren't a rarity among forums.

Speak for yourself.

This forum is greedy, but we're not the worst, by far.
We are trying to improve the forum but doing that, changing custom user titles.. will not improve anything.

And honestly, are you dying? If it bothers you that much.. get to 10000 posts (without spamming) to get Absolute Mega-Insane.. God :(

I think it would be good idea because people will get to know each other just a little bit more so if the member title said 'Naruto4ever.' that means that person likes Naruto. But if people will start putting rude things then the webmaster will go though some trouble fixing it.

But i think it's a good idea, it's better then having the same old boring thing as 10's of other people will have as a member title. So if it's greedy i would like a very good reason on how and why.

Oh yeah, it's not being greedy, it's called being creative and thoughtful for new ideas to make the site a better and cooler place.

Exactly how will it not improve anything? You're not making much sense. As I already said, it will allow users more expression and creativity.

Getting that many posts without spamming is nigh impossible.

Listen to this person. She knows what she's talking about. The site would be much cooler with accounts that allow for more customizing.

It wont improve it. Not at all. It will give users more.. .. Freedom? Though.
It is a good idea, but it is greedy. It seems as if we cant satisfy you guys soon enough then you're wanting again. Oh well. :(

What are people without freedom?

The reason why they are greedy is becuase they are asking what is lacking. so they moan about it.

The fact is.. it won't really benefit AA.
You guys have freedom but you have to follow rules. Simple ones.

It may be lacking that but without it AA wont.. fail? Not even close.

I like the idea of change every once in a while, sometimes it can be healthy for the forum. I guess everyone wants to be different and having a freedom like this can help. It is not that difficult really.

Oh well, there always be people that are opposite from your beilieves.

Freedom can be joyed with rules... *Says in a lazy way, then a sigh.* Oh Thanks Manslayer for backing my point.

This is all I have left to say: If giving us custom titles is an easy, effortless sort of thing for webmaster to give us - I think he should. If not, it doesn't really matter. As I said before, titles aren't very significant. :)

i have read all i can be ars3d to read. heres what i have come up with.

lose them all together.

¬¬ user titles on EVERY FORUM suck. "It makes every user unique..."

BULL!

its all about the avatar. back when Josh was Rainmaker (IE, the "Good ol' days") he had THE SINGLE COOLEST avatar. the one he has now. no one else has ever had it as far as i am aware. whenever i see that awesome storm trooper, i think Rainmaker.
