There should be a council of title fairies. Like around 3-5.

People can nominate titles and discuss for/against, but no nths and stuff. Then the mysterious council of title fairies meets on a day to discuss a nominated title, and then they hold a secret vote, with majority yes/no passing or failing the nomination.

This is only half a troll idea too!

Like, 5 Nth in the Fairy thread, then some sort of consensus from a higher council in the 48 hours, then you give the approval?

This would remove some starry eyed results and placate the calls for "only titled members deciding who gets titles" crowd.
Great minds think alike they say!

Still think just abolishing the title fairy all together is the better option. Adding a subscription to MS where you can choose your own title, get a slightly bigger avatar, maybe add img to your sig, for like 2 bucks a month or something. It would only increase the amount of money that goes into the site and would be incentive for more people to donate, instead of it just being a small number of large donations. A precedent for this would be the MS cards. People bought the fuck out of those cards, and to my knowledge it didn't lessen the amount of incentiveless donations.

But, this is not the thread for this.

But then it would just be pay2win which creates a toxic atmosphere.

If I end the subscription, does the mod personally change my title back?

How is that pay2win? You aren't winning anything. If you are willing and able to give some cheap ammount of $ a month, you get special privileges. Just like twitch channels give you special emotes if you subscribe. You are supporting the site. It's a nice thing. A good thing, literally nothing toxic about it.

It gets rid of literally every bad thing of the current system. The toxic arguments between who deserves what for what, about how title fairy isn't doing his job, about what titles were good/bad/need to be changed. It also eliminates this idea that people get titles because they are "gifts from the community" when that's just not true. Anyone with 5 friends can get a title, and that's typically how it goes. Someone's friends nominate the title, other friends say yes, title fairy goes "well, there's nothing wrong with it, ok" boom. It simply skips the middle man and messy social aspect of the whole process.

pedit: Idk, I'm sure Chamber or Kison could script it to just change it back automatically, but that's not something I can say with certainty and would require someone with far more knowledge than I have.

tbh i am vacillating internally between the ideas of making it harder and easier to get/change titles
the status quo is certainly not very satisfying
but maybe i just need to hurry up with my projects or start banning shitposters
this is not the thread to discuss such things
