This seems like giving a title of list mod to list mod for being a list mod...

I feel like ms could do better by singersigner. She deserves a great title.

I agree there's probably a better title for her.

But this isn't a bad one, imo.

Nth Universal Backup (although I think it should be without the dash, to better fit with the real role name).

The only issue is that there have been backup listmods in the past. Has Singersigner done a much better job of backup listmodding (or have to do it more often) than others? From your post it seems that way, so in that case it would be more than simply "list mod gets title for being list mod".

Apparently the links suck...they are links to singersigner's Iso's in the threads (or supposed to be). Just click the links to the threads and find them if you like. I don't know an easy way to fix this lol

Ninja'd
NP, I'd love something more clever! I think they absolutely deserve something!
I just couldn't think of anything more clever and fitting, and as Skrew said (probably sarcastically but still), it is a Mafia role, so it kinda fits with the theme of a lot of titles.

I think that any argument of "It's a pretty good title but I think there might be a better one, I just don't know it" kinda misses the fact that, if a better title comes up in future, it can be brought up and can replace this one. Unless you can think of a better one -now-, why not give this one that is good?

There's a difference between a mediocre title and a good title. This is a good title. It may not be ~The Perfect One~, but it's good. Why not use it and then if ~The Perfect One~ is found, pop it in?

no, "mediocre" means "of only moderate quality; not very good"; think the label is apt for this title

I realize the definition of mediocre, Psyche, I'm just disagreeing that it is apt for this title.

There's so much more to singer's contribution to the site than listmodding. singer, her family, the Commune, legendary meets that brought scummers from far-flung parts of the world are some of the site's recent-ish foundations. I keep thinking about pyramids, but I can't make a title from it. Not yet.

The mermaid symbolism is also germaine. A siren call.

And I think that if we find a title that encompasses more of singersigner's personality and contribution, then it should replace a more narrow one unless they don't want it to. But I don't think SleepyKrew's entire personality and contribution to the site is "that time he was a Title Fairy and did his job". But that's a good title nonetheless.

Psyche isn't exactly the only person who's indicated that it's not a perfect title?
To act like it's universal (harharme) agreement is kind of silly.

Would be interested to hear what singer herself thinks about the title.
