Now that Post Counts are gone....

Jul 18, 2009#1

Shegokigo

I'd like to re-submit my original request for user made "titles".

Removing RANK and allowing users to choose their own "title" was my original request but at the time wasn't passed for whatever reasons, but now that we no longer have post counts linking our titles, and the fact that a large part of the community now all share the same titles, it seems like a good move. Also by allowing this we free up a slot underneath the avatars for more of Dave's mod tinkering. Heck, even replace RANK with the MOOD smiley again.

Interesting idea, but post counts aren't gone. I'm looking at your 4388 post count as I type this.

*shrug* It's gone on the default theme setting. Where all the mods are placed anyhow.

I support custom titles and the OP unabashedly.

Damn you Shego for making me agree with Charlie!

Ah, that might explain some things. I am using AcidTech.

It would also be nice to change rank again (or just get rid of rank if we can do titles)

Post counts are showing just fine here with the hello kitty theme. :smug:

Any word on chance of this happening Ed? What's the verdict!

How are we supposed to prove one is popular without post counts?

MWUAHAHAHAAA!!

I can now once again post without holding back and avoid rising to an uncomfortable top!

The Mike

You mean you were actually holding back on your posting?

I don't want to see what happens now

Calleja

I did for a while, but after Turbo got such a comfortable lead, I stopped holding back.

I began holding back for other reasons, though.

I'll look into this tomorrow, but no promises. Work is actually becoming work!

Doesn't 'rank' count as personal title?

Jul 21, 2009#18

@Li3n

A better way to do it, if possible, would be that after you reached the last rank + X posts over it you would get to chose your own title...

Yes, and the request is to remove the Rank mod and just allow altering of Post Count Titles.

I can not read.

Titles are active. They are basically the same as rank, but oh well. I'll be getting rid of the rank portion soon.

Or I could, ya know, just leave them.

Nah, it's democracy in action. Power to the people.

I'm just another oppressed minority. :humph:

Jul 21, 2009#26

Well, considering I can't find instructions on how to add the Rank mod - which guarantees that I can't back it out - I think it'll stay for a while.

The "oppressed" minority that had the benefit of a custom title all along :tongue:

Wait, how do I erase my Rank? I can't find the option anywhere

It's my medal from the great 12-Hour Spammer War. I don't believe you served.

For some reason it stopped appearing in people's User Control Panel. And I can't figure out how to get it back. I'm trying though.

You can do it Ed!
