You don't actually "make" them. Occasionally, when he gets bored, Drakefyre will give someone a custom title. It doesn't happen all that often and when it does it's not by choice.

The official VID (Very Important Date) can attest to that. :rolleyes:

Administrators award them to people they like, are sleeping with, or have contributed to board life in a major way.

Drakey probably keeps a list of all users who have ever asked for a custom title, so that we can afford to forget, whilst still knowing...

Congratulations! You've just been blacklisted from getting a custom title for as long as Drakefyre remains administrator!

You can't make them, they are given (see above two posts). The main titles are Apprentice, Citizen of Exile, Adept, Erudite, Veteran, Guru, Frolicking in Postland, Postmaster General, His Postliness, and Postaronni, Pizzabella! (I'm certain that the last one is completely wrong)

Other titles are given out by Drakey. Aran, Kel, Alo, David, Ash, saunders, Thuryl, and others have them. You can kind of tell them apart.

There are no citizens of Avernum because I like Exile better.

I'd personally think Citizen of Exile sounds cooler than most except for the really high post ones.

I pretty sure Citizen of Exile was made a while back when Exile was still more popular than Avernum. No sense changing now. Oh, and Spring, you forgot Journeyman. ;)

Oh, and Aran, I really like MySQL. It does wonders to help out your programs. Except for it seems to be marginally problematic.

Citizen of Exile has been around since the beginning of the Spidweb UBB, actually. It was originally the title for 50+ posts, but that has since changed.

I didn't know that they added the new Postaroni, Pizzabella! ranking. How long has it been around?

Close, but no cigar. I've been implying my desire for a custom title for a long time, and I started changing my PDN daily as a sort of protest, but I've never gotten one. I've never actually asked for one either, that I can recall, so I'm probably not technically blacklisted either.

Aran tried to leave, but since he still had the potential to post, he decided the effort was futile.

Toenail, Postaroni, Pizzabelli is fairly new and made mostly to rid Alorael of the excuse that his title will never change.

I explained this "lie" somewhere on these boards. And spy.there added a neat ASCii suitcase. His trousers were dirty and his mum wouldn't let him back into the house!

That said, I don't recall seeing one. And since I go to these threads like flys to the proverbial, I should know.
