Title Fairy: Killer App Edition (Swipe Right!)

[Aristophanes]

ftr I think Chevre is doing a great job, I just thought he had a perspective that missed the reason for the title

I agree with this.

My quoting was not meant to attack anyone and to insinuate so is ridiculous.
I liked the original post and thought it captured a lot of my own thoughts on the matter very well. I thought it a "fun" way to point it out, and did not see the harm in it.
So my apologies if it was misconstrued as malicious, but that was not the intent in any way.

Also, Shea brought up a very good point on how much this title means to him. Many are done as jokes, are Nommed out of principle, or just capture one snapshot of an amazing member of the community.
Shea has worked to make this community great. To make it something people could not only join, but could feel a part of. He has made people more comfortable in being themselves here. He is exactly what we need to grow and thrive in the current online battle for happy users!
This is encapsulated in Shea, and

That

is why he deserves it!

He's the Hero MS Deserves!

Can anyone think of a good pun or fun wordplay or anything for this? Because I'm at a loss and that is disappointing to me.
I'm not asking for a repeal of the decision, I'd just live to see this happen. For MS! For Shea!

I think Chev is doing great and I respect the decision but I just think NM worded the opposing opinion perfectly.

...oh, right

cross out the part about not having met scummers irl and the rest holds true
hell,

I live in the commune and I still call most of the people here by their scummer names all or most of the time. Even Pie is Pie more than he is his actual name.

but if anything that just furthers the point. I -have- met people from here IRL and I -haven't- met Shea and he's still the only (or one of the only) people I'd consistently use his IRL name for over his scummer name.

so I vehemently disagree with the title decision but /shrug, I guess chev's made up his mind

I find this interesting. Now I wonder what I'd call you people if I knew you in real life.

the names people choose for themselves often seem to suit them better than the names their parents gave them. It's frankly quite weird to me to think of calling most of the communers by their real names.

I actually prefer my IRL name to my scummer name when it's in person these days, but I also only legally changed my name a few months ago, soooo... <_<

[drmyshottyizsik]

Honestly why not just find a title that is more fitting to what the title fairy wants from a title but also contains Shea's name, like a pun? That way everyone is happy and there is less arguing?

No, the whole point is that it is Shea, and nothing else. It's not a pun, or a joke or anything else. It is a name, a symbol, and above all else the title we all have metaphysically already give to TSQ, and I think this would be one of the most appropriate and fitting titles on the site. Again is Khan Man can be a thing because his name is Khan, Shea should be a no brainer.

I mean you all can call me Logan is you want, I respond to that or shotty, but Shea has actually told people not to call them TSQ and to call them Shea. Shea is unique and individual and just all around hugs and love guys.

My name isn't actually Khan....

[Flameaxe]

W/e khan

silly khan is confused

No it would be like making my title Shotty Dude, it's dumb and based off your username, even worse than your actual name. I'm not blaming you for your awful title, but come on if it is precedent then Shea shouldn't even be being debated.

[Bins]

It has been stated that titles based on usernames will generally not be accepted to be fair and Khan Man was an exception earlier on.

[The Bulge]

It has been stated that titles based on usernames will generally not be accepted to be fair and Khan Man was a poor judgement.

For the fact, yes

[Bins]

meta joke there friend

But..

If the benchmark for title quality is "Is it better than Khan Man?" then a lot of shitty titles are going to still pass that test.

It only tracks game posts it's not broken

[Davsto]

Ahh I'm sorry for expecting a number labelled as "total posts" to display the total number of posts sitewide and not an entirely different figure

[Davsto]

wait scratch that hiplop fixed my brain and I was right with Mafia Scum

[SleepyKrew]

Pretty sure the first thing I did as fairy was ask KK if I could remove his title.
