Even better if you get someone to do it for you, you offering Evenstar? Thought not, jog on then
You should do these polls for more members of the board.
Feel free to think of something for me. (To anyone)
I think it's called custom title or something like that. If you PM one of the mods like Helen with a title you'd like, they might be able to honour that :-) I'm not sure if there's a minimum post count needed.
They really should be allowing us to change them ourselves, with a block put in place if people are being naughty, i.e. using them as a way of insulting other users. Should also be allowed to delete our own posts.
Won't happen, though. The mods don't trust us.
As for the delete feature, I also remember those days well. It was removed back in 2005. Jim V repeatedly made a politician's promise to review it to see whether the feature could be brought back, but it never happened. Some people still believe to this day that I'm to blame for the delete feature being taken away. It's just one of the myths from TheSite history.
My six year anniversary on TheSite is coming up in two weeks, so excuse the nostalgia. Where everyone else is dropping off, I seem to be thriving. I sometimes feel like the sole survivor after a nuclear bomb was dropped.
I agree! I used to post on a forum where you had to ask permission to change your title and avatar and the mods would do it for you. I think I pissed off one of them and got daffy duck as my avatar.
There was an incident once where Kermit suggested to the moderators it would be a good idea to put in a random word into the filter. Jim V responded - by putting Kermit's name in it.
