Head over to [MENTION=297]FarligOpptreden[/MENTION]'s thread regarding custom titles to see if there are any suggestions for you - http://mygaming.co.za/forum/showthread.php/43221-I-can-haz-custom-tightless-plox.

If not, post in there for ideas on how to get started. My suggestion: start a thread to solicit nominations for your custom title, then use that thread to create a poll to have people vote on the nominations.

Set clear end dates/times for nominations and voting so that folks know by when to respond.
 
I'm guessing 'Phase 2' would be... uhm... hmm... The next... group... who wishes to have their title done.

I see you got the new name you wanted.
[MENTION=289]Jan[/MENTION] - so, any special reward for me yet for initiating the innovative initiative? :D
 
Probably coz you haven't initiated the initiation! :D

Might I suggest "The vehicle destroyer!" ...might be INCREDIBLY obscure reference, depending on whether you know the series in question :D

I did :( Even on page, i think ppl just dont like me...

---------------------------------
EDIT: I appended "SS" (Self-Suggested) to some of the titles where members recommended titles for themselves, just to keep things a bit fair. :)
---------------------------------
OP:

So, how does one go about getting a custom title around here? On my forum-home-away-from-home we have a tradition that as soon as someone hits 1000 posts the community votes for the member's title. After getting enough responses, a poll is drawn up and the community then makes the final decision. Point being, the member in question is not allowed to intervene with the choosing of the title. Participation in discussion is welcome (and recommended) and public dismay can be shown for the horrible, degrading suggestions, but the community's vote is final.

So, thoughts?
