Hello everybody! Everyone that have a custom title, can please post here, explaining why and when you gain it? Also I want to know if you like have one or if you don't, and why. P.S.: I know, I'm curious. But every time I see Thuryl's (for example) custom title, I spent 10 minutes thinking what can mean. :) [ Tuesday, March 14, 2006 06:56: Message edited by: MagmaDragoon ] -------------------- Download Geneforge 4: Rebellion You have 6 posts.

Back in July 2003, I had a custom title that was actually relevant. Around then, Zharrad and I started the Encyclopedia Ermariana, and I annoyed the hell out of the BoE community by interrogating them about the history of Ermarian. The result was that I got titled "Exile Historian" for a week. That was Stareye's doing. Wherever you see a title that makes sense, odds are he made it. :P The rest have been Drakey making little inside jokes to himself. I was made "A very important date" in March last year and "Painting the roses red" only a week or so ago; both are Alice references Needless to say, if there is any hidden meaning in these lines, it escapes me. -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

Perhaps Canned should be added to the FAQ. —Alorael, who does not have a custom title and never did. The way things are going he probably never will. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

One day I might be considered esoterically acceptable/active/helpful enough to warrant one that isn't as the above but one's, but deep down, without pimping myself out, I don't rate the chances. Okay, I do rate chances. About as likely as Alo. :P [ Tuesday, March 14, 2006 08:01: Message edited by: Hakuna Matata ] Posts: 1487 | Registered: Sunday, February 10 2002 08:00 |

I don't have one, because I deliberately keep asking for one. The Admin only give them out if you don't ask, so I'm never gonna get one... Unless you'd be so kind as to give me one Drakey? -------------------- And when you want to Live How do you start? Where do you go? Who do you need to know?

Hakuna Matata, please forgive my grama. I mean: "Are you happy to have a custom title or not?"

My custom title is pretty unique. I got it when the damn UBB ate my account, and then regurgitated it back up. Unfortunately, neither Drakey nor Stareye love me enough to give me anything else. Posts: 455 | Registered: Tuesday, May 17 2005 07:00 |

Never had a custom title, probably never will. Can't say I'm disappointed, because I'm not really a huge fan of Drakey's theme. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

Your story is not like Saunders' story, which should be made available for all to read on Aran's site like it is here. —Alorael, who considers it both a work of art and a necessary piece of evidence that should not be withheld.
