Fake titles

Heh, sorry, mine was just an avatar.

Actually, thinking about it, the fake admin one shouldn't be on, because it implies that person has such authority when they don't, and will be confusing to newer members that might need to PM an admin about something but they end up PMing someone that isn't becaue they got mixed up by the fake rank. Plus a fake admin rank can be abused to a certain extent, unlike with a fake banned one. A fake banned is different because being banned implies you have less rather than more responsibility etc. :p


EDIT: I think Roogle's SSS rank is a fake one since he wanted the rank in addition to the admin one but there was no point making a seperate user group solely for him, but since he really is SSS anyway, that's fine :p

why don't we just give everyone a fancy title so we can all be happy?

I don't like the fake admin titles. bennator0's banned thing never bugged me though.

People go to admins for advice. If someone went to PG thinking he was an admin, all they'd get was random gibberish and talk of pie.

You mean Linus was never banned? Dammit!!

Good job.

All non-standard titles are annoying, yes. (Except Spuuky's.) To be honest, crono_logical's table-stretching double stuff is the most annoying to me, but it's not anything I can't live with.

Doesn't stretch it any more than if I had a full height signature when I do a short post, otherwise it doesn't stretch anything for a long post :p Just imagine I have a 250 pixel high spacer or something in my sig :D

Yeah, I don't mind being banned (wasn't it for calling Bleys, "Bley's")? It doesn't really bug me that other people are "banned" or "administrators," because most of the time I know they're not.

It's their avatar. You'd have to restrict those kind of avatars. I really don't care. I know who's who.

Oh, fine, poop on my fun. I was going to take it off today anyway. :p

In the spirit of being fair, I demand that all fake titles be removed, or I will have my "admin powers" reinstated.

It's only fair. Unless you can find a logical/rational reason why certain members just suddenly won't irritate you like I apparently did (God forbid I actually allow myself to be anything other than a regular member), I find it somewhat discriminating that people like bennator0 and proot get to be "banned" while I can't have a simple "administrator" custom title.

*nod*

Pee Gee should get "Official nOOb sex0r" as a title >.<

I don't mind if PG has the Administrator title--As long as you make him a member of the Administrators group in the control panel.

It's mostly the Banned titles that bother me, because they got old a long, long time ago.
