Where Did Your Title Come From?

[-_DLD_-]

If you have a custom title, where did it come from/how did you get it? Is there a story behind it?

I still obviously lack a custom title, because I'm a newbie here.

[Kid Airbag]

I have no idea, to be honest.

[Bucket]

I asked for mine. I've been considering doing something stupid so it'll get changed.

[-_DLD_-]

Interesting. If doing something stupid is all you need to get a title, then I'm surprised that I didn't get one on my first day here.

[Fletcher`]

I was born this way.

Edit: and being buddy to an admin helps too

[Planky]

title schmitle.

[Sharessa]

I have connections and can get it changed whenever I want. I chose this one because it's a big inside joke. It's old and busted though. I need to figure out something else.

I'm not sure.. maybe I am a resourceful agent for the country!

[Coopersville]

Mine's just a quote from the Doom comic that I got for no reason beyond the fact that we have some nice mods/admins here.

[ducon]

I’m french and an admin translated the standard title in french.

[Lüt]

I got promoted, fell from grace and rose again (in more ways than one).

Or, I just cleared my old one and never thought of anything to replace it with.

I think it was me, then Cyb. We were going to have a conversation there, but it never happened :P

Somebody bribed me.

I once had a custom title which said; 'is BOingy wizard' or something. That is because one of my class mates found this site and tried to destroy my nonexistant reputation. >:(

I later bruised one of his ribs and gave him chest pains for a month (reciepted and filed). :)

[Little Faith]

I am a moderator and have certain privileges.

My present custom title is a reference to an old flamewar I got burnt in.

[Nmn]

From my project ^^

[Technician]

I do not have enough personality to gain one.

[boris]

I went into my User Profile and changed it.

[Janderson]

What post count is needed to change your own, again?

[baronofhell]

I was going to ask the same thing. I don't think your post count matters, it has to do with you doing something good for admin. You get a special title if you do something stupid, as I know from experience.

Mine means "O lily of purity" it's a line from Elfen Lied's theme.

EDIT : I quoted you for a reason...oh yeah, the number is like 99,999 or something like that

[Goat]

an old contest a few years ago.

i think it was, you had to be logged in a certain time cuz we were gonna go for the max amount of users online, so if you were involved and logged in you get to get a custom title.


and its been that way ever since ;)

[Darkstalker]

I asked for it in the last custom title givaway.

[Fredrik]

Asking politely.

Last time I did that it didnt exactly work out. Look to the left to find out why.
I'd also like to point out that Its been over 2 years since I've been here(10-13-03)

[sirjuddington]

When I was a moderator (for the old zdoomgl forums) I set mine.

Someone once asked me if I was the 'ZDoomGL slayer', so yeah :P

[Manc]

A rhetorical question in response to a near catastrophic disaster

[AirRaid]

I got my first one when Ling wanted to get as many people online as possible.

Danarchy's origional one was kinda funny too from the same contest thing.

As for this one, well, I argue about graphics a lot. So I set it myself.

99,999

Or be a moderator and change it whenever you want.

It'd only take about three months to get there if you write a script to trigger the postless postcount++ bug over and over again, 24 hours a day.

Are you advertising or gloating :P

EDIT... Oh wait you're just informing.
