Look, my point had nothing to do with SPAM. I was just saying that
constantly
posting "no" or "gtfo" or whatever actually does damage to the system, because it's an automatic response that discourages recognition of the actual worth of the nomination.

Its not automatic, I would of said yes if it was a good title, just dont see the need to give my reasons especially if its obvious why not.
Mostly retired. Unless you ask or it's something interesting.

Also I wasnt particularly offended (hence the <3) until you slagged off Oman then I got a bit pissed off however its not really worth getting all upset about it.

There was a time when Alabaska's titles were actually crap titles but weren't deliberate nowadays he does them just for the hell of it whenever he can(ie the title above and the many that came from Sims thread are good examples). Im sure that should be regarded as spam as much as me brushing his nominations are.

However moving past all this, I want to hear Thoks opinion on Adels suggestion.

because many people seem to think his title suggestions are awful, and his house has become haunted.

In theory, I'm in favor of anything that gets people to discuss titles. In practice, I'm not sure how well it will work.

I still think somebody should get Weighted Companion Cube as a title.
I replaced into Chess Mafia for 6 months, and all I got was a win and this lousy sig.

You're doing it wrong.

Also I think Adel's idea is quite bad.

Here's a crazy idea, why don't we do it
both
ways?

We could have
some
"titles-made-for-player" titles, and
some
"player-assigned-to-titles" titles. That way everybody wins!

I really don't want to spoil it, but Adel was just messing with you guys. I'm amazed this has gained as much traction as it did. I think she was just trying to figure out what her site influence was. From the reaction I'd say it measures pretty high.

I never took it as more than a tongue-in-cheek proposal, and agree with .ed.

Well if everyone win that means that no one loses. Therefore given that no one has lost no one really wins if this happens. It is quite obvious the best thing to do here is keep the old style and just ban Alabaska from the thread.

It's funny because "Scary" rhymes with "Fairy".

I like the idea, but it needs fine-tuning.

Yup, that's way better.

I need to find a decent rhyming dictionary, the best alternative I could think of was "Title Hairy".

Second: Title Arbitrary

Also, I'm wondering whether "Mind Rapist" would be better than "Sadist" for Tarhalindur.
