|
|
Q: I've noticed those little words underneath my username avatar. What are they, and why do they change occasionally?
That is your member title. It's just a little phrase to describe your status as a member, and it changes as you accumulate more posts.
Q: So..., how many member titles are there?
Quite a few, actually. And not all of them should be taken seriously.
Q: Are there any other member titles not mentioned in this list?
For example, after making your first post (post count=1), your member title will read as "My First Post!" instead of "Baby".
Q: I've seen people with other member titles, like "moderator" or so on. How did they get them?
Those are special titles assigned by the forum administrator.
Q: Can I get a custom title for myself?
Sorry, no, the phpBB software does not support this.

aww...that's a bummer On this other forum I go on, I'm able to change it to whatever I want. Mine right now says "I'm a JAF (Japanese Animation Freak)". I came up with that for my group of friends and I a couple years back. I think it's great to be able to do that, but then again, that forum isn't as big as this one is. I guess it helps to control what titles members have.
Thanks for the info Strata ^_^ _________________

Error:
750 - "If you don't have a custom name by now, the mods are lazy"
is wrong.
It is

Thats probley due to the fact that they could'nt fit it in. You can only put in a certain amount characters I think.
Oh and when you've made 1 post, it says "My First Post!" as well _________________ Knowledge is no burden to carry. |

It would be funny if there were hidden titles that last like 5 posts only in random places before returning to the original title. You just wouldn't tell anyone about what the titles are or where they're placed.
Example:
500-525 - Forum Contributor
526-531 - Space Monkey
532-749 - Forum Contributor _________________

Um, not necessarily kiribans, just random hidden titles, although kiribans would be cool too. _________________

Of course, 'hidden' member titles would not work if you already have a custom title. _________________ Strata here: Nanowrimo - FAC - dA - FA

True, but the majority of people don't have one, plus those who do could still enjoy seeing other random titles pop up here and there. _________________
