under that system, most of us are experts/custom titlemen.

I think to be a senior member you should have to be one of the top 50 forum posters.

No, those people should have the "no life" title.

At least I have more life than you, Mr. #1.

And I DO have no life!

I still like the idea of titles based on project output/quality/knowlege

I revised it slightly. Also if your able to have a custom title you could make it say no life or whatever...

The thing about custom titles is that we (the admins) can't just type a new one into your profile field. It has to be a new custom rank, which is then applied to the appropriate profile manually. We would need a phpbb modification to allow you guys to type in your own if you're qualified for that
privilege. And unless someone gets the ftp login for the forum subdirectory, we'd have to nag Ben until he adds it.

That may have changed in phpbb 3 (We're on 2), but we probably won't upgrade until a few months after it's out of the release candidate stage. (Which would be great, since it's got a lot more features than version 2 does; it's a lot more like Invision or vBulletin.)

senior member used to be only for the first 50 or so people who oined the forum.

Yeah, I know Triton. It kind of ruined the whole thing.

In my eyes, Senior Member was above Portablizer, etc. Now it's not.

No matter, the whole forums aren't that exciting or eventful anymore. Sure, they're helpful, they're just slow and boring nowadays. It's a shame I have nothing better to do

And as for negative titles, nobody's going to dish those out.
