Cerbera Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 They are a fun way to express yourself and having them forced to the frankly lame "experienced one" or "crazy poster" is just irritating. Free member titles for all - and don't make it dependant on post count either, because that would just promote spam. Personally, I'd get rid of your progress bar thing too because they encourage spam too. I know, because we removed them from GTAForums ages ago and had a marked improvement. Link to comment
RobZGod Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 Custom titles make a lot of problems, people changing it to make themselves look like they are in a position of power, offensive and racist comments, etc. Its just too big a job to police it I think. Lets wait for the word from an 'official' person though Link to comment
Posty Posted September 27, 2003 Share Posted September 27, 2003 I like this idea. But one of the team members should only be able to change it. Like you have to e-mail a member and then u can get the custom label. Link to comment

MTA Team Blokker_1999 Posted September 28, 2003 MTA Team Share Posted September 28, 2003 What you ask is impossible in phpBB, and i won't make or search a hack for it. And doing it ourselfs is impossible. There are over 5500 board members Link to comment

There are over 5500 board members WTF? Enabling members to change thier own member title should just be a checkbox in the Admin control panel. It is with *proper* forum systems anyway.

me Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Ya, but then I'd be able to call myself a moderator! (Of course, I am one, just some one seems to have forgotten to fix up my title). Link to comment
Cerbera Posted October 1, 2003 Author Share Posted October 1, 2003 Ya, but then I'd be able to call myself a moderator! (Of course, I am one, just some one seems to have forgotten to fix up my title). That might be a problem as there's no member group displayed by the avatar. Urgh, the data that's been set to be displayed shouldn't be post-related either, quantity never indicates quality. Custom member title, avatar, member group. That's what's *really* needed so people can put their gang position, avatar and have thier member group displayed to all. That way there'd be no risk of moderator faking and wouldn't be so much blatent spamming to increase post counts. Link to comment
Mr.Bill Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Why dont we just like totaly ingnoe this post? no im jk custome titles can be good at times, but not for all maybe if you reached a certain post count but not before and yes we know hungry poster and such arnt that great, but we could all just change it to like "n00b, n00b, super n00" and yadda yadda dna be even like MORE lame personnaly I just think All super mod's should have YOUR GOD written in big bright gold letters, so everyone knows.

Oyst Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Would be nice, but too much work involved with them. What i'd really like though, is post counts removed. Its getting to the point of sadness, associating people as newbies if they have a low post count. Down with it! Link to comment
