It's the aftermath of the April Fool's Day switcheroo, I believe. All the ranks were reversed.

Makes no sense. 30 posts are more than enough to be a Halfling, which would switch to a Firbolg.

[Illiterate Scribe]

Yeah, but I think that the rank 'got stuck' for some people - if it was a manual or script based change to alter the ranks, then that could explain it.

...I thought it was 50 to halfling? The user hasn't posted since Nov. 07, which I think supports my case...

Nope, I think that was for dwarf. It was 10 to halfling.

I'd really like to have this discussion with you, but I'm going to stop because it's against the rules. I'll PM you, though.

[EmeraldRose]

I believe it was the April Fool's thing. I have noticed quite a few people who seem to be inactive, who probably got switched along with everyone else, then just didn't get unswitched...

[Chronos]

Yeah, but I think that the rank 'got stuck' for some peopleSpecifically, I think the rank stuck for anyone who hasn't posted since. vB seems, for the most part, to only update users' data when they post.

[Emperor Tippy]

Specifically, I think the rank stuck for anyone who hasn't posted since. vB seems, for the most part, to only update users' data when they post.
Yep, its what happened.

[Rawhide]

Updating everyone's title at once is a server intensive process, when it fell over the first few times I decided to hold off until we had a more reliable situation.

[Illiterate Scribe]

It also keeps us on our toes, which is good.

[Charity]

I couldn't give two stuffs what anyones is... since they robbed me of my true title of bugbear *shakes fist in impotant trollish rage*

[Leon]

Given the general view of Trolls on forums, yes

[Rawhide]

Do you seriously still want a custom title Charity? :smallannoyed:

[EmeraldRose]

I think Charity just always wants to be a bugbear. It seems to be his preferred monster type. :smallbiggrin:

[Jibar]

Cat-Muffin In The Playground.
That'll be the day...
*sigh*

[Charity]

Do you seriously still want a custom title Charity? :smallannoyed:

I'm just hoping to earn it through persistance and appropriateness (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/bugbear)... one day I'll wear you down.

See ^ thats why I'll never get it, dem floodgates is hard to close...
*prods Rawhide again anyway just for the sake of it*

He loves me really.

[Jibar]

Yeah. I know. I know.
I pretty much abused the seperate username thingy on the old boards, so I'm not exactly the best person to be using custom titles.

I can dream though.
I can dream.

[Charity]

I'm right there dreaming with you Jib...
Yeah it's a shame we lost that extra area of personalization with the switch... i used to enjoy coming up with new 28 character or less wittisims.

[sheepofoblivion]

Yeah. I know. I know.
I pretty much abused the seperate username thingy on the old boards, so I'm not exactly the best person to be using custom titles.

I can dream.

No. From now on, you are forbidden from dreaming. By the decree of Oblivion. Sheep. Thing. Person. Guy.

Hey, I was bored, alright?

[Rawhide]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?

[Raiser Blade]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?

I do. If it isn't too much trouble and you weren't being sarcastic in your question.

[Rawhide]

I do. If it isn't too much trouble and you weren't being sarcastic in your question.

There you go.

[Emperor Tippy]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?

Excellent joke. How long do you plan on keeping them like that?

[Haruki-kun]

Any chance at all that you'd make me Angel in the Playground? :smallwink:

*is only being half-sarcastic* <.<

[Dispozition]

I'm all for having a custom title Rawhide...Do your fellow aussie a favour :D

[Raiser Blade]

There you go.

Thanks a lot! :smallbiggrin:

[MeklorIlavator]

I think it's actually cool. Rawhide, could you change mine as well?

[Rawhide]

Excellent joke. How long do you plan on keeping them like that?

Eh, a couple of days at most.

[Neftren]

Eh, a couple of days at most.

Plz plz plz plz for Coyote in the Playground!!!!1!111 ONE! ONE!

Too bad it won't stick around though. Although it would be nifty if you could choose your title based on the ones you've already unlocked. So I could go back to Pixie, even though my postcount puts me at whatever I am... Ogre I think?

[Charity]

Ok Raw nicely done.
Thats the first time I've genuinely Lol'd for the longest time.

Hats off to you sir

[EmeraldRose]

Once again, you merely confirm your awesomeness Rawhide. :smallbiggrin:

[Haruki-kun]

Once again, you merely confirm your awesomeness Rawhide. :smallbiggrin:

I agree. :smalltongue:

Can I get a "Custom Title" Then, Rawhide? Please?

[purple gelatinous cube o' Doom]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?

Sure, what they hey, but only if it's snappy/witty. :elan:

[Recaiden]

I find it incredibly difficult to imagine that anyone doesn't want a custom title just a little bit.:smallbiggrin: I would like one... Maybe someday.

[sheepofoblivion]

If I can, can I have one as well? ... Please?

[Skippy]

Cool! Can I have one, too?

[The Extinguisher]

I feel left out. I want to be unique as well. :smallwink:

I must admit. I've found myself numb to forum pranks, having done so many on my own forum, but this made me laugh and wake up my family. I was wondering what was going on with that title.

Brayo
Encore

[RTGoodman]

I find it incredibly difficult to imagine that anyone doesn't want a custom title just a little bit.:smallbiggrin:

Oh, pshaw. I'm fine with a Non-Custom Title in the Playground. :smalltongue:

[Chronicled]

This is brilliant, and I'd like to try it too. (Assuming that Rawhide doesn't get washed away by the imminent flood of requests.)

[Rawhide]

Alright, and that's the last batch I'm afraid. Plus I'll be switching the titles back, as I mentioned earlier, within days.

I hope I've made my point and completed my little social experiment in the most humorous of ways. Charity, we can't make a special exception for you and give only you a requested title, because everyone else will want one (and as you can see, it could even just be something as silly as "Custom Title in the Playground") and we simply don't have the manpower (or womanpower for that matter, *waves to Alarra and Lilly*) to go about assigning everyone a title for a board this large.

So, I'm sorry, but you will all be going back to the regular progression once I've milked this joke for all its worth...

[Jibar]

Ah, I haven't laughed like this for a while.
Thanks Rawhide. Nice to see me and Charity whining can get results. :smallwink:
I'll miss this Custom Title when you take it, but oh well.

Oh I know, I know gone forever those halcyon bugbear days *sniff*
What if I bung you a fiver on the quiet like?
nyuk nyuk just kidding I'll leave you alone... for a bit.

[Matthew]

It is almost as though the DM gave you a Wish and then screwed you with what you wished for to teach you a lesson.

Ah, gone forever are those halcyon AD&D days (well, not really, certainly not for me :smallbiggrin:).

[Charity]

I must admit, Raw did me big style, his SMBG origins do show through from time to time.

Do you miss those carefree days Raw?

[The Extinguisher]

So, I'm sorry, but you will all be going back to the regular progression once I've milked this joke for all its worth...

Wait, you mean it's not mandatory to milk a joke for all it's worth? That explains so much. :smallsmile:

[Cthulu]

As the great Cthulu waits i want one... as my first post i find this meaningless and irrelevant.

Bravo, bravo.

[Shhalahr Windrider]

Hm. I had been given the impression that vBulletin had a setting that would allow all users to select their own custom title and that GiantITP simply had it disabled in favor of the current "heirarchy." Guess this impression was wrong.

Makes that "heirarchy" a little less frustrating I suppose.

[Atreyu the Masked LLama]

That's wonderful, Rawhide!

I'll never have a custom title, but I've been included in someone else's custom title and that is good enough for me.

[Chronicled]

Thanks a bunch Rawhide! Time to share this throughout the boards while I'm able, methinks...

[Shades of Gray]

I'd like one myself. But with the "title" part uncapitalized, y'know, to be different

[de-trick]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?


me i want a custom one too
*puppy dog eyes*

for all of those who asked for one...

(you also missed haruki)

[Uncle Festy]

Aw, darn. I missed it.
Ah well, good thing I saw this. I was about to post a new thread asking about it. :smallredface:

[DraPrime]

Too bad there's no "steak in the playground" title.

[Nychta]

:smalltongue: I was laughing at everyone's custom titles. Finally, I found out what's going on! Great joke Rawhide.

[Talic]

You sir, are my hero.

[SoD]

Aww man, I'm too late...

*sulks in the corner*

[Szilard]

:smalltongue: Man that is funny.
I'm up for one if it's not too much trouble.
Never mind, read the last couple pages.

[Rawhide]

:smalltongue: Man that is funny.
I'm up for one if it's not too much trouble.
Never mind, read the last couple pages.
Oh, thanks. Reminded me that I need to change them back...

[Emperor Tippy]

Oh, thanks. Reminded me that I need to change them back...

I was wondering when you were going to get around to it.

[Skippy]

Awww...

Ah well. We saw this coming, anyway.

[Dallas-Dakota]

*wonders how he has not noticed this custom title thing earlier except for contest wining*

[Charity]

Ah, this is contest Whining... we all lost to Rawhide.

[sheepofoblivion]

:smalltongue: Man that is funny.
I'm up for one if it's not too much trouble.
Never mind, read the last couple pages.

no, you weren't supposed to remind him! :smalltongue::smallbiggrin:

[EmeraldRose]

:smalltongue: And yet, he still hasn't changed it back.

[BizzaroStormy]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?

If you're offering them, sure! I'd Love one!

[Rawhide]

:smalltongue: And yet, he still hasn't changed it back.

I have an assignment due, so they get a reprieve. Its not exactly causing any issues unless someone flaunts it.

[The Extinguisher]

*takes of flaunting pants*

Aww....

[Rawhide]

<--- is still waiting for someone to comment on rtg0922's title.

[Emperor Demonking]

Wow that's an amazing title.

[Rawhide]

Wow that's an amazing title.

:smalltongue:

[Emperor Tippy]

<--- is still waiting for someone to comment on rtg0922's title.

No one has yet? I found it worth a laugh. :smallwink:

[RTGoodman]

<--- is still waiting for someone to comment on rtg0922's title.

You know, I haven't even seen anyone mention ANY of the titles, besides in this thread. Which is very disappointing, because I partially requested this one to see if there would be any comments (or complaints)! :smalltongue:

[Skippy]

The not-custom title is really amusing. Rtg, I'm pretty sure our Custom Titles were mentioned in the last Random Banter thread. You might want to check it out.

And I think there was another thread here, in Forum Issues, about the same thing.

[Emperor Tippy]

You know, I haven't even seen anyone mention ANY of the titles, besides in this thread. Which is very disappointing, because I partially requested this one to see if there would be any comments (or complaints)! :smalltongue:
There has been a few threads in the Board Issues forum.

But it is against the rules to talk about them, so I can see why they wouldn't be mentioned in other places.

[RTGoodman]

But it is against the rules to talk about them, so I can see why they wouldn't be mentioned in other places.

Because we all know that something being against the rules means no one will ever discuss it! :smallbiggrin:

[Occasional Sage]

Ah, I haven't laughed like this for a while.
Thanks Rawhide. Nice to see me and Charity whining can get results. :smallwink:
I'll miss this Custom Title when you take it, but oh well.

If it helps, you'll always be the "Cat-Muffin In The Playground" to me.

At least, until you change your avatar and I'm not reminded... but I don't see that happening soon. :smallwink:

[Jayngfet]

Done. Anyone else want custom titles?

I want a nifty custom title.

[Skippy]

Sorry, but...


That's the last batch I'm afraid.

I'm guessing he'll be switching us back soon, anyway.

[Rawhide]

I'm guessing he'll be switching us back soon, anyway.

Correct, I submitted my assignment last night.

[Emperor Tippy]

Correct, I submitted my assignment last night.

And once you do you are going to change mine to "Jesus in the Playground" correct? :smallwink:

"Emperor in the Playground" and "Doughboy in the Playground" are also acceptable. :smalltongue:

[Rawhide]

And once you do you are going to change mine to "Jesus in the Playground" correct? :smallwink:

How about 'Begged Rawhide One Too Many Times For a Custom Title in the Playground'? :smalltongue: :smallwink:

[Emperor Tippy]

How about 'Begged Rawhide One Too Many Times For a Custom Title in the Playground'? :smalltongue: :smallwink:

Hey, I've never asked and/or begged before.

I'm just saying that I think the title of "Jesus in the Playground" would go great with my avatar. :smallwink:

[Rawhide]

Hey, I've never asked and/or begged before.

What has Jesus got to do with your avatar?

[Emperor Tippy]

What has Jesus got to do with your avatar?

Well he did the whole rise from the dead thing and my avatar says "He is Risen" and has the whole aura of light thing going on.

But seeing as I am sleepy and intoxicated I prolly shouldn't be posting or making requests at the moment.

[Rawhide]

You wouldn't by any chance mind changing your avatar at all, would you? Thanks.

[Emperor Tippy]

You wouldn't by any chance mind changing your avatar at all, would you? Thanks.

Why? I will if you want but I don't really see a reason to do so. Seeing as all comments about it I have received have been complimentary and as I haven't been warned about it I doubt you have received any complaints.

[Jibar]

I'm guessing he'll be switching us back soon, anyway.


Correct, I submitted my assignment last night.

I cries now.
*cries*

[Occasional Sage]

I cries now.

Always the Cat-Muffin, Jibar....

[Skippy]

Ah well, it was fun while it lasted...

Now I have some things to do...
