Lobo Posted November 12, 2003 Any moderator/admin out there who knows what happened to my custom title? Why am I suddenly a "forum regular"? 0 Share this post Link to post
Bloodshedder Posted November 12, 2003 What, you liked the title you had before? 0 Share this post Link to post
SyntherAugustus Posted November 12, 2003 Well... you have under 1000 posts and you're title got too old (it was a year old iirc). 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted November 12, 2003 I got sick of it and didn't think it was relevant after a month anyway. I thought you'd be sick of it by now too :P Did you seriously want it? 0 Share this post Link to post

sargebaldy Posted November 12, 2003 ask again gatewatcher, please. i'm sure on the second try lüt will gladly grant you whatever title you want, and not some bastardly one he came up with himself. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lüt Posted November 12, 2003 Just FYI, I had nothing to do with Sarge's title :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted November 12, 2003 Hmm, there's been quite a lot of double posting lately... 0 Share this post Link to post
sargebaldy Posted November 12, 2003 i'm still not quite sure why we can't delete our own posts. the only reason i've heard is that it would allow us to make posts but then hide them. but you could do the same thing by just editing your post to say nothing or something completely different... iirc we used to be able to delete our own posts and threads. was there a problem with that somewhere? 0 Share this post Link to post

Then, "omg linguica banned me from my forums" hence leaving me high and dry with a terrible unbecoming title until Pritch and Julian were kind enough to show mercy on me. Lüt, you hurt me emotionally, and I respectfully request compensation. Or not... I think I just dug myself a hole anyway. =\ Heh. [/moan] 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted November 12, 2003 Ichor said:Hmm, there's been quite a lot of double posting lately... I think it has to do with how slow the forums have been going lately. You submit a post then 5 minutes later you come back and its not done submitting and you hit refresh and suddenly there it is again. Or something. Thats how I double posted that one tiem. 0 Share this post Link to post

Have you tracerouted doomworld.com lately? EDIT: From school, at least, I find that a lot of common slowdown points end up getting used as if they're just the best that are available. Go go super internet! 0 Share this post Link to post

Oh well, guess I didn't.the_Danarchist I think it has to do with how slow the forums have been going lately.

Thats how I double posted that one tiem.Yay, so I'm not the only one. It seems to be strictly an issue with the posting script. I thought the entire forums had gone down the first few times this happened, but then I opened the index in a new window and found that I could still browse and search regularly while the post was still taking 5 minutes to go through. As in all situations like this, there's only one logical thing to do: blame Marv. 0 Share this post Link to post
sniperfrommars1 Posted November 13, 2003 the speed has been a bit off lately. I could always beg for a custom title but who really cares. No one wants the fate of sargebaldy. Besides if I begged for a title they would call me He who masturbates to cooking shows or something 0 Share this post Link to post

Ultraviolet Posted November 13, 2003 He was pointing out that you, by posting that, might just end up getting that. However, now, between this and that other post you're fighting with ravage in, it looks like you could be banned, bypassing the whole bad custom title thing. But I'm on pritch's bad side lately, got no room to talk. :P 0 Share this post Link to post

DooMBoy Posted November 13, 2003 It seems to happen at random intervals. Somtimes the post goes through in a matter of seconds, sometimes it can take minutes. 0 Share this post Link to post
Lobo Posted November 13, 2003 Anyway, getting back to my title.... I wasn't particularly fond of the old title but at least I had a custom title :) If you wanna give me a new one then that's fine: I'm open to suggestions. How about "EDGE fanatic"? 0 Share this post Link to post
