Welcome to the age of custom titles. (If you wish of course)

Click it
Sigh...
Once upon a time, a custom title here was earned not by post count, but by the esteem of your fellows, and a few well placed bribes.
You couldn't request a special title, the PTB reached out to you and offered you the opportunity, along with a well intended warning that custom titles carried a curse, as some who were granted them got big heads over it, acted out, and got disappeared.
Now, anyone with nothing better to do can rack up enough points to give themselves the opportunity look even sillier than their choice of ID or avatar does.

I assume tobacco can be used for such dealings. Which would explain how you managed to unload all that Holly's Non-Plus Ultra you were hoarding. ;)

I heard he was forced to throw in a few McClelland tins as well to get the Bard title...with only the Holly's they were going to make it The Darling of Barlings.

Done! I will hopefully have my custom title soon. I had to really think about it for a while...time I otherwise would've wasted on here! :ROFLMAO:

I'm considering requesting mine to be: Almost Banned.

Actually, come to think of it, seems like there should be some special achievement award for anyone who makes it past 10K posts without being permanently banned.
