http://www.ironycentral.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_profile;u=00009170 Is this spelling of "banned" significant or a typo? -------------------- "Of course, not all technology is good. Some is exactly the opposite (bad)." — Dave Barry Posts: 458 | Registered: Friday, August 6 2004 07:00 |

Most likely a typo. That title needs to be manually entered when someone is banned, so it's not hard for that to happen. -------------------- "You're drinking liquor because you're thirsty?

Nothing significant other than that I was tired when I banned him and not really eager to go back and fix it. -------------------- Your flower power is no match for my glower power! Posts: 3726 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

Oh. And there I thought that you'd brilliantly invented the next great trend in bot custom titles. (Add an "N" each time there's a ban! Yayyyyy!) Hey, we never did come up with a creative new title for the banned. A couple members became bored with BANNED/Banned/BANNED at some point, right? But they never did brainstorm a better one. -------------------- "Of course, not all technology is good.

Could I suggest we rename the Banned title to Empired? It seems kind of amusing given the context of the Exile/Avernum games. [ Wednesday, July 04, 2007 01:08: Message edited by: Chicken ] Posts: 206 | Registered: Tuesday, September 3 2002 07:00 |

Or a Geneforge theme. Wait...what could we... "Dumped in Sealed Lab"? "Fed to Rogues"? Yeah, maybe Chicken's idea is a LITTLE better. EDIT: Spelling. Sheesh.

For Geneforge, it's being Barred as in Sucia Island. It would be nice to differentiate the bots from the human bans. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

Exiled, Banished, Barred, Assassinated, Killed, Defeated, On Vacation, Shunned, Murdered, Genocided, TMed. Okay, that's all. Nothing more to see here. Some of the titles are good, I'd think. Also, it wouldn't really be awarding them with cool titles, as they have no way to flaunt their new titles. -------------------- Sitting in my chocolate palace, smoking a candy cigarette.

Dikiyoba prefers the banned title over anything suggested here. It's simple and the meaning is obvious. Bannings should not cause confusion. Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

But that confusion would offer a great opportunity for more baffled people to start topics whose titles are a banned person's name! Yay! -------------------- "Of course, not all technology is good.
