no. I think that just confuses matters, and subtlety is a crucial ingredient of the humor in any event.

also, keep in mind that this is drmyshotgun's title, not drmyshottyizsik's title, so having misspelled words in the title doesn't look right. It's not that drmyshotgun uses poor grammar or whatever.

it's also worth noting that the best titles anchor at two ends, and this one is also funny because drmyshotgun is in better community standing than shotty. good health indeed...

i don't think he should, given that it's a positive mention, and it's only to draw distinction between him and izsik.

Nomming someone for a title like a page after they ask for one sets a bad precedent. I also don't think the suggested title is that funny (sorry, zor).

While the title is funny, and I like gunny, not sure he's really earned it on his own merit. It's not something he did besides "not be shotty."

No, but people keep mistaking him for a shotty alt, and that's pretty defining of his forum presence.
