This has been brought up before...I still like to know how I get my own title like the oddworld artist or OW animator or something under my name. Like Joshy is Lulu's Biyatch, could someone please RE-fill me in on how that works.

Well, I think the members who posted in this thread have made it very clear what they would like changed, but:

1. the ability to alter your username but only with in certain limit, like you can only have two characters more than your original username or it has to be an extension or cropped version and not completely altered.
Ex: for me it could be SS, Sligslinger

2. You already explained the way to become a Senior, but could you give me a little more info. That's all I ask :D

3. Oh, and if you ask me. We should get more smilies :p

Under the table exchanges. As in... Joshy gave Alcar a quick hand job, now Joshy gets a custom title. :kiss:

Some of you may want to continue this discussion in hobo's "Reputation." He's kinda/sorta on the same lines as this thread.

Believe me it's alot worse if you want to win a mod position ;)

They SAY you get voted in... but you don't... Oh no. I sitll never recovered from initiation. That scar still throbs on my left buttocks cheek at night.

Yeah I know man, you should see Alcars' inbox. :p

Anyway, I think 2000 posts is a bit much. Not all of us will stay on that long. So I propose we all use custom titles as little personal "Identifiers". Just nicknames, titles, roles, or positions that we come to be associated with.

(And I don't mean sexual positions. Much to the dissapointment of some.) ;)

Newbies with around 10 to 40 posts wouldn't be able to access it, but after maybe 200 or so posts, the feature springs to life.

Perhaps one or two other little goodies, such as multicolor rank stars... That would work quite well I think...

On the face of things, we're not asking for much. Just one or two things that can identify ourselves a bit more.

Well, the first is easy. As I've already explained the many reasons why such would not be implemented. The second, regarding becoming a senior: you can't just 'become' a senior. At a certain time, or pre-set 'criteria' you become a senior. Which hasn't been discussed or made final. Thirdly, that one's easy :p

Hey, Josh gave me that hand job by free will.

Just wait until Super Moderator ;)

Oh no! They know of our secret plans. I'll have to terminate them...

Funny ;) If you could see my inbox you wouldn't be laughing.

Basing it on post count is foolish. Therefore it'd be based on how long a member has been registered.

Alcar...

Yeah I like that idea also. Although, I am content with my current custom title, I just like it a lot. :fuzsmile:

I'm still waiting for my custom title...if I even deserve one!:p

Ooooh! More smiles! :fuzgrin: You guys know me...I'm a smile person.

-oddguy :fuzcool:

I don't have a problem with adding more smilies ... but if someone could volunteer to find them [I really aren't a smilie person, so maybe someone like Oddguy would be suited to this]. And the only stipulation I will have is that they remain within reasonable height. I find that smilies that are oversized are really ugly and mess up posts. But good sized funny ones are more than welcome.

Abe Babe...

Okay that is the worst list of 'senior members' I have ever seen. Most of them have only been here for half a year. I would only count Jacob on that list.

Ah, sorry about that. It is actually me. I didn't see the second page.

I recently made a whole bunch of smilies in preperation for my new forum. If you want them, you're more than welcome, but they are on another computer at the moment, so you'll just have to wait until I find an excuse to use a whole CDR.

(My other comp doesn't like floppy disks) :s

Oh and Alcar, who said I was laughing? I have a feeling your inbox explains my pissed off & depressed attitude about 95% of the time. ;) The other 5% is when find hand job invitations. :lol:

By the way, basing it on time spent at the forums is foolish too. Because then any old joe could sign up here, post once or twice, and go away again for however long, then come back and find he is able to use this feature. It would be better if you could use a combination of time spent at OWF, and number of posts. Like, I dunno, perhaps if you manage to post 500 posts within a space of, maybe 2 months, then the feature activates? This way it would only award productive members that have been here a while.

There'd most likely be a post and joined by requirements

That didn't make any sense. Sorry. Could you rephrase?

For new benifits, if we were to implement them, the requirements would be both a post requirement, say 1,000 posts, and a join date, say one year ago.

So someone who joined yesterday(awful example) but has 1,000 posts wouldn't get it neither would someone who joined 2 years ago but only has one post. The only way to get them would be to have both of the requirements.

I had a hunch that this was what you were trying to say, but wasn't totally sure.

That really backs up what I was saying. That it would be better to have a productive member that had been here for a while, rather than an unproductive member that had been here for a while, or a productive member that had been here for a day.

Come on, Fax...you know you love me! Who else would joke about you living in Middle earth, eh?:p

-oddguy :fuzcool:

A whole freaking CDR?! OMFG. Quite thrifty for a well off person, aren't you?:) (watch it be some excuse that CDRs are hard to come by in Russia or something)

No actually, I'm running low on CDRs because I keep using them for really small files all the time. And in case you've forgotten, I don't live in Russia anymore, I moved last year. :)

It's not that I really give a piss about some CDR, it's the fact that I'll probably be kicking myself later when I have no CDRs left and have a really big file that needs transferring. Also, I'm making a website and forum on my other computer, and I will put them on CDR when it is finished so it can be uploaded to a server - Since my forum will be using the smilies I am willing to offer this forum, I thought that I might as well wait till they're online so I can host them for you.

As I mentioned earlier Death, it would be also based on the activity of the member. So no 'Joe Veteran' can just expect it after returning from a two year absence.

Alcar...

I think senior should be one and a half year, and the person must post productively, also they must give oral sex to the admin and super mods.

But in the end its Abe Babes and Alcars decision if they get "promoted" (sexual favours) or not.

Seeing as some of us live in seperate countries, I really don't see the oral sex thing happening.
