Thank you Ken M

[Psyche]

due to excessive spam in the last page i have decided to ban everyone

[Not_Mafia]

And you've resorted to lying, is there any low you won't stoop to?

[Thestatusquo]

i thought we had all agreed that as the person who coined the phrase and the person it is universally associated with majiffy should get doot?

[Not_Mafia]

We are all doot, that's the beauty of it

[Firebringer]

Then why should Vonflare or zito get the title?

[Not_Mafia]

All doots are equal, but some doots are more equal than others

[Gamma Emerald]

Alternatively, some doots are greater than other doots

[Psyche]

My regret isn't that a whole week went buy without a post in this thread. It's that I still have this darned to-do list.

[Papa Zito]

I'm not sure we can move forward until you resolve The Doot Issue.

[Annadog40]

He did, he said no.

[vonflare]

this darned to-doot list.

[Papa Zito]

Clearly it's not settled.

[Alchemist21]

Time to dispatch two Jedi knights so that a settlement can be reached.

[Cheetory6]

The Title Federation has set up a blockade of Thadoot. Our heroes Qui von flare and Papi Ozi-Toe must save the day.

there are many people that

deserve

titles but don't have them yet because one good enough has not been suggested/approved.

When you combine these, you get my basic stance: basically everyone who has titles currently deserves them for one reason or another. (People may disagree, but I would STRONGLY recommend against arguing an existing title to be removed, as that's just a lot of unnecessary ~drama~ waiting to happen.)

Most of the people without titles...simply...don't really deserve them. (For instance, there's zero appeal in any scummer having 'doot' as a title as far as I'm concerned.) That doesn't mean that all people without titles don't deserve them; there are plenty of people like RadiantCowbells who most definitively DO deserve them...

...But the problem there is, none which are

good

enough have been suggested. Sure, yeah, there's no such thing as a "perfect title", in that perfection is the enemy of good. A title doesn't need to be perfect. Heck, a title doesn't even need to be 'great'. But a title

should

at least be "good", as it were. In short, just because we'll never find a perfect title doesn't mean we shouldn't hold

standards

for titles. And thusfar, by and large, we simply don't have nominations which are at the level where they meet the standard.

And time and time again, history has shown that almost every single attempt to force a title will fall short of the standard because...it was forced. Good+ titles just come naturally. They exist, and people can honestly, seriously, genuinely look at them and go "oh yeah that works!". When I see a good title, even if I don't understand the full context, I can support it because I can just

recognize

it as a good title.

So the thread being dead at times isn't inherently a bad thing. Because good titles appear when they will appear. Be it hours, days, weeks, or months apart from one another.
