Pokerface's title has been added to the first post.

I like either of the non-WIFOM choices for shaft.ed, if there's agreement on which one.

The one suggested for Hasdgfas is cleverer than the typical title suggestion. This is an acknowledgment that the suggestion exists.

I'm likely to change TSQ's title to Titles: Serious Business, unless people have a a major objection to it.

Guardian wrote:Um my opinions, as asked for:
I still really like 'Cross Killah', because it's funny, and reminds me and was proposed by one of the most offensive yet funny alts, or members, I've encountered.

The other stuff doesn't make as much sense to me without 'post' in it.
'One post wonder' is cool, but makes me seem like a cheap gimmick :(. I kinda like that one though.

'Two kills one post' is cool, except that I'm a pretty big anti-fan of the reference, and don't particularly want people thinking of that every time they see my name.
Is there a specific reason that Cross Killah doesn't work for me, Thok? It was not the first notion of me being nominated for a title that I remember, but was by far the most hilarious and memorable for me. I was nominated and thirded... and generally don't get why it has been ignored.

I like "cross killer" better than "cross killah" because I don't feel Guardian is cool enough to deserve bastardization.

Im getting saddened by the resistance to titles in here, really. I can't put my finger on it but there's an odd dynamic. Seems to me, titles are mostly frivolous but make the person who gets them feel good. It's a reward for some intangible aspect of being part of the community, posting a lot in GD and MD or otherwise making your mark.

It bums me when people like Guardian and Shaft.ed don't have titles. They deserve them. So if someone comes up with one and there's no better brilliant idea, pick the best idea available, give it to them promptly, and if something better comes along, change it. Don't be so quick to piss on a title you don't like unless you have something better, and thok, if a title fight happens for someone, make a call and give them one of the titles. One man's opinion.

Also, I've been thinking about announcing in GD that this thread exists. I stumbled on it by accident, but I'm betting some people still don't even know it's here.

You're right, I was totally kidding.

Guardian could have Cizzle Kizzle and I totally would have no problem with that.
