While I was combing through the Wiki to find pages to term replace (by searching the L-word), I discovered that not only a Titles page exists, but that Vamparific has a title of
Noose Magnet
.

What should happen with that obvious L-word reference in a title?

most appropriate seems to replace noose by something else?

normally i'd say asking directly could be the best, but it's gonna be hear to reach out given last join date

"vote magnet" would be a fine change imo?

Just because they haven't been around for a long time is no reason for taking away their title.

I propose we change it to Guillotine Magnet, as the only people who get offended by guillotines are royal bastards who ruin France's economy.

I find my title problematic. I don’t really feel like i’m good at surviving.
Norwe is spontaneous, has a stream-of-consciouness posting style, usually posts on catch-ups by commenting on past pages posts, gets rather fired up in certain moments in games, is relatively as playful as me in games and likes casual shitposting

Vamparific? I hardly know her
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

Ditto.

I know there's a feeling that we shouldn't go looking for a title to fit someone because they deserve it and I've long felt that's valid, but lately I've wondered if this might be due for reconsideration. I'll try to elaborate more later on if I can come up with the words.

I have never thought titles just magically happen out of thin air. Maybe sometimes it happens, but in practice it's probably usually deliberate brainstorming.

There used to be this pompous posturing around titles like brainstorming was never how it happened, but I don't think that was ever actually true for the majority of titles.
