A) Titles aren't rewards and B) That was never agreed.

you just admitted that you are running bastard games without telling the players, so you aren't really denying that it exists
You really should stop talking about things about which you have no idea.
I know that AGM, me, MoI, and Andy are all on it(well, I don't know about Andy, but I'm assuming based on what I've heard). Just because you don't have a blacklist on your wiki doesn't mean there aren't people that you won't let play because they "aren't on your good side".

Bolded is your problem. Mostly because I've never blocked any of the 4 of you from joining a game I was in. In fact, in some cases, I've gone against my better judgement and allowed people to play, regardless of my history with them.

To say otherwise is patently ridiculous.
I meant modding blacklist. the point is not that you don't have to play with us, but that we can't complain any more.

You definitely said that i couldn't join Harry potter, and you were very clear that it was because you plain didn't like me, and not because i had worked on the setup briefly.
For the record, I think that ReaperCharlie should be disqualified from being titled, at least for a while. I think he's been way too involved in the choosing for his title.
I'd say we don't give RC a title, no matter how fitting it is.
I point back to the OP:
Oman wrote:2. A title is designed to be an informal representation of a user's personality and individuality.
It is also a badge of honour that the title-holder has become an individual within the community, valued by his or her peers
. A title should be something that user is recognised by, including a lasting appeal, not a quickly waning fad. In layman's terms, one should say "Yup, that is User X alright!". It should be easily accessible to all people, with wittiness/humour being a benefit.
Oman wrote:5. Any user can recommend a title for a qualified user. It is a simple request that extraneous titles are not suggested on a whim, as these clutter the thread. To recommend oneself for a title is bad form,
it is a gift from the peers
, not something to bestow on oneself. However, users are encouraged to become involved in discussion of their own title within the thread. Abuse of the ability to suggest titles, by
suggesting insulting, or otherwise frivolous titles will result in that user's privilege being removed
. Note that Site Ideas (including Title Fairy) is covered under the site rules, and abuse may warrant reporting to Site Admins.
To sum, titles are gifts for those who are respected and no insulting titles allowed.
For those of you who still feel that RC is a bastard mod, I'd suggest posting in his game queues to warn his victims of their impending doom.
TheButtonmen wrote:It helps to make finger quotes when reading "Bastard".
I agree with this. Probably a turning point right here. If you do the quotes sarcastically it works too.
RC this isn't the place for what I want to say to you. I will say that regardless of title (and I'm considering it heavily, it's a good title overall) you're a douchebag.

I disagree, I encourage people to get involved in their own titling. I think it's important that a title that is meant to highlight a user's place in the community includes them.

The combination of those two should earn you a modding ban <_<

People generally want to play mafia, not "guess how the mod is twisted!"
If it's not advertised, it shouldn't be in the queue at all.

Yes.
And there has been way too much discussion about ReaperCharlie already. I'm not trying to push policy here. It's just that there has been a huge amount of back and forth, and I expect most people would find it dull and lifeless. That would be fine if it was its own thread, but instead it's spamming up a thread designed for discussion of more than one person. The least you could do is take it to Topic 16236.
Nominate Papa Zito for
something. Maybe
Me 2
, because, like MeMe, he became list mod of (a) mini queue and retired from playing. Also, it relates to his like of hydras.
I know it's a poor nomination. But if I might distract you all from going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on about one person...
