Player Titles - Ideas, Suggestions, & Comments

what was the purpose of this change tho. allowing people to choose their own title removes the only appealing aspect of titles. It also devalues all the titles given before.

I'm still not convinced this isnt an april fools joke

[vonflare]

now i need to decide what title i want for two days before this feature is removed.

Frisk, obviously

I think we should go back to the old way. That is my feedback for the feedback thread.

The old way was a bit too much "good old boys" club.

I'm on board with players being allowed to ask for a title, I just think there should be standards applied to those requests.

Approving titles simply because they do not break site rules allow for titles such as "I am garbage", and while that title may technically be acceptable according to site rules, it's not exactly healthy. It promotes a negative self-image and an expectation of unworthiness. Not to mention it's just bad for site morale. Regardless of how the member may feel about themselves, they should not have a negative image validated with a title.

Have you ever interacted with cheet

I think zoraster not doing anything about it makes it way more likely it's just an April Fool's joke.

[vonflare]

pizza zizi keeps saying 'its not april' but its def close enough for an april fools joke to begin bby

Anyone who thought this was real has a pretty major gullibility problem tbh. It was fairly obviously a joke from the very start.

thats my line

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Psyche The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the other moderators would tell you. It’s a Title Fairy legend. Darth Psyche was a Dark Lord of the Title Fairy subforum, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create titles… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from having bad titles. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.

on second thought i want this as my title

[vonflare]

a masterpiece

I might be diminishing my role as arbiter over whether a title is good or not, and instead focus on just smoothly carrying out my administrative duties for the thread and enforcing its rules. This shift will accompany changes to said rules, though, with the goal of us having a title process whose output quality doesn't depend so much on the whims/tastes of the current fairy.

this part is interesting.

will titles that previously received the requisite number of Nths but were rejected by your personal tastes be open for voting again?
