OfAllusion
is the funniest imo, because it's alluding to MoI. Zor you're selling yourself short saying it's "for the erudite MoI." I think the joke works specifically because it's an allusion to MoI's username.

OfIllusion, OfAllusion, and OfConfusion are all good.
I'll explain it to you. You have to get someone else to understand it for you.

Korts + others are right: Of Allusion and Confusion, Allusion is much better suited for the title.
I think the people who like Confusion better must be Confused as to the meaning of Allusion. ;)

I still think the gap makes things screwy... would including Magna in the title totally kill it?

Magua

MagnaOfAllusion

I like it better than just "OfAllusion", in any case.



Nobody likes Elusion? :(

Yes, it would totally kill it.

OfAllusion is pretty good, but I still thing OfIllnsion is better.

I'd vote "ofAllusion"

ofIllnsion is pretty good too though.

Let's just ask Magua which he likes best?

I didn't expect anything good to come out of this but allusion is not bad. Think it would look better with normal spacing though.

OK, so we've narrowed it down to OfAllusion or OfIllnsion. Clearly the only sensible title is
OfAllnsion
.

Oh, dear.

While I agree that OfIllnsion is far cleverer than it has any right to be, and gorckat is someone whose name will be remembered for the ages, I don't really want a title that boils down to, "Oh, yeah, he's got a very similar name to that other guy." I already have the MaguaofIllusion

hydra for that.

You have no idea how long it took me to get "OfIllnsion."

Brandi (finally) gets hers back.
Papa Zito (FINALLY!) picks his up.
DarthYoshi gets his in due course.

Usually I say "if you have a problem, you know where to find me" but this time I'm saying: Ton of posts deleted, eat a bag of dicks.

To best describe how I feel about that stupid goddamn argument- I guess it's best to just describe my thought process as I read through the posts:
"Wait, What?"
"Is this a troll?"
"I don't quite-"
"Oh...Oh fuck you."
"Kiss my entire arsehole. Fuck you guys."
"Why did I stay on as Title Fairy?"

I am so disappointed about how most of the people posting here treated Flay and Kison during that discussion. It's motherfucking Flay, who pretty much ran this shop with very limited scope from an admin perspective, keeping it afloat
while
modding games and generally kicking arse in GD and 62, and motherfucking Kison, who runs this shop from the backend (heh, "backend") doing all the code and 1s and 0s and shit. When the site fell over, he (with a small team of cachers and quick hands from the rest of the team) got this thing up and running. Panda has told me about how Kison delays his drinking sessions with her so that he can back up the site, sacrificing his fun to keep this place stable. Show some fucking gratitude! When he says "it's not worth the intellectual and physical effort for such minimal gain" the correct answer is NOT "LOL IF PARAMA DOESN'T WANT IT, END OF DISCUSSION, NIGGA".

Parama, you had this thing about not wanting a title. Okay, whatever, we all have our jams, and I'm not your father, so whatever. Then you had the April Fools joke of "give me a title", and now THIS. You come off as an attention whore, desperate and annoying. It's so frustrating to see the kickback that came out of that frivolous request, because Flay and Kison give legitimate returns to what is essentially "HEY LOOK, I'M SPECIAL!", giving you more credit than deserved, and then get bitten for it.

Beyond what respect they deserve, think about it from a technical side: Flay and Kison are the primary legwork for the site's aesthetic. Honestly the only reason I can EMPLOY titles is because they made it
so painfully easy for me to do so.
If they say that it's more trouble than it's worth to do it, I totally agree. I went through and took a look at how it'd be done, and my god it would be the most pitiful return on investment, especially when those dudes are doing an almost COMPLETE site overhaul of structure and command chain.

Honestly, Parama, do you think that your silly need to be different by being the same ("custom titles are sooooo mainstream") is more important than what Flay and Kison
could
should be doing with their time? Grow up, kid, this is the internet and you are not a snowflake.
