Their puppy-dog eyes and ribs sticking out of their malnourished bodies as their RM daddies and mommies work at the quary, dying slowly out of coal-poisoning and not being allowed to use their native language under the heavy fist of the cruel Brittons and their demonic monarchs...
    Dude, Britt hasn't been around (let alone in any state of authority) for ages.

    Well, at any rate I hereby request that you take away my yellow-text. I didn't do anything worth earning it in the first place, and I certainly don't do much now.

    You still made my favorite site event. The Murder mystery.



    But I agree, too many of them will make it look weird. I always thought that RMs should be members who dont post anymore. I think that active members have anough recognition without a little title under their name.

    It depends if people get upset. If there are actually people willing to lose their title (kind of like voluntary redundancies) then it sounds fine.

    I'm pretty sure Aclmim, Nino, C2K, Rirse etc wouldn't give a damn since they're not here anymore anyways.

    Twenty sound good. And whenever a Knight or Admin steps down, you should ask him/her if they want to be an RM or not. I'm sure some wouldn't want to be.

    How about editing the title to just RM, and stop giving any more out so only veterans or people who did a lot quickly have it.
    Then introduce a new title for twelve or so that only lasts for say six months and is then appointed to new people (or reappointed if the member continues to be active and productive). Then active members are rewarded, newbies have something they can work for that involves more than just waiting a few months and noone is made unhappy.

    I say what I think. If you disagree, then that is up to you.

    If you need to take away people Recognized Member thing you can take mine away. That yellow is so annoying to me. It totally clashes with the board....although the ability to close threads is nice for me...but since I can't do the whole sha-bam of moving them and makeing them important...it really isn't all that useful to me.

    I think people who are very popular on the boards should get a RM but they'd have to be VEEERY popular.

    I personally oppose the idea of capping RMs... I thought it was supposed to be a lifetime achievement type thing, and this kind of defeats the purpose of that. It's out of my hands though...

    I'd support a 12 cap if I was allowed to refer to them as the "Dirty Dozen" from here on out.
