God, if you don't like each other, GET OVER IT. Do you completely lack social skills? If you don't like someone, you have three choices: Get over it and decide it's not worth bitching about, ignore them, or avoid them. YOURE FAILING AT ALL THREE.

In the interest of pretending this post is useful, suggestion: someone make some sort of hatred thread in forum 62 where people can go to complain about and argue with people they hate....no, I don't actually expect anyone to take this suggestion seriously.-

No, UT, I haven't ignored it, but I'm clearly showing support for the fact that mafia titles on a mafia site makes sense. People in the past have gotten titles for non-mafia related features, but that is such a low minority that it's not even worth bringing that up as a type of argument because such a low number of people have gotten titles for those kinds of features. It's not a good sample size and it's not worth talking about. Oman talked with mith and clearly agreed with the set of rules that he abides by now and it's not anal or nazi-like in the least; it's worked for a long time. 99.9% of titles on MS are about mafia games. It's just not worth arguing that we should expand that .1% just because of an off-site joke. This wasn't a problem before, so why is it a problem now?
TBM, this means that I agree with the tradition. I don't care about what I want, it's about what suites the site better and I'm only showing support for the person who was appointed the person as a title distributor by the people who, you know, run the site.
EDIT: My point is that just because that the VERY occasional person in the past has gotten a non-mafia related title doesn't make Oman obligated to give them out like hot cakes, or at all, for that matter.Last edited by DemonHybrid on Wed Apr 27, 2011 4:12 pm, edited 1 time in total.-

Have you ever looked at the list of titles in the wiki; Here is the break down for users with names starting with A to J (I got bored and already made my point by then)
A: 12
7/12 Not Mafia
B: 10
6/10 Not Mafia
C: 20
14 / 20 Not Mafia
D: 13
9 / 13 Not Mafia
E: 6
4 / 6 Not Mafia
F: 9
4/ 9 Not Mafia
G: 4
2/4
H: 5
3/5 Not Mafia
I: 6
2/6 Not Mafia
J: 7
4/7 Not Mafia
So A) It's not 99.9% about mafia, B) It's not even 50% about mafia.Last edited by TheButtonmen on Wed Apr 27, 2011 4:21 pm, edited 3 times in total.Routine day with a dirt cheap brush

What, to you, determines a "non-mafia" title?
Not a sarcastic question in the least, by the way, I'm legitimately curious. I'm counting titles that have at least something to do with the mafiascum.net website (and not scumchat, FTR)-

Again - you personal feelings on this matter aren't really relevant. Sorry that you disagree with Oman and (insofar as I can tell) the administrations stance on the Title Fairy process.
So either take it up with Mith or stop whining.

What was a fun diversion and community building thread is now srs business (and that just sucks).
Anyway, at least we're getting some genuine discourse rather than people just whining. Also note that you had a chance to discuss this. You actually had two.It's unfortunate that good oral sex excuses bad chemistry. - Korts-

Just agreeing with the man, sir.Parama wrote:@DH: You're being stupid and perpetuating a senseless argument.
Here's my main argument in a nutshell, all wrapped up and candy coated for everyone. (I.E: a SUMMARY.)
-Mafia titles are titles that originated from the site and clearly describe who a person is on site. Titles that deviate from that norm (titles that originate from a different video game or website, for example) are rare and have been given in the past, but only on extreme occasion.
-Oman was appointed title fairy by the people who run this site, giving him the qualifications to make his own decisions based on titles. He is far from unfair and isn't obligated to give a title for any reason.
That's all. Really. That argument was like a band-aid. The only thing I'm even mildly agitated about is people putting down Oman's judgment, and that's not even that big of a deal to me because he's a big boy and can handle it. Now, if someone has something against me personally, the PM control panel is at the top of the page, not that box at the bottom that says "Quick Reply". Otherwise, I've said what I needed to.Last edited by DemonHybrid on Wed Apr 27, 2011 5:03 pm, edited 1 time in total.-

To be honest, that might actually be good because I edit my posts like a madman after I post them originally (not in mafia games, but elsewhere around the boards. JD, Fate and some others may have seen me do it, and even in this thread)shaft.ed wrote:DemonHybrid wrote:

Anyway, whats your title in reference to? I haven't been around long enough to know.
Explaining in more detail what I meant (I know, shut up, I keep getting dragged back in. Besides, it's restating my original argument, don't go crazy): What I was saying is that I was agreeing with Oman that titles originated on MafiaScum are fine regardless of context or whether or not it has to do with a specific game but stuff originating on Starcraft, LoL, WoW, etc. for instance is iffy because 99% of the playerbase that sees that title won't get it.-

Sure, if people realize that it has more than one context, with the amount of editing and doubleposting that I do as well as not being satisfied with an argument. Pretty sure that I should have half of the in-game posts that I have already.TheButtonmen wrote:

TSQ nominated me for it when I was a the peak of my political ranting in the GD. He thought it was cute to use the . from my username to separate the word demagogue so that dem would be highlighted. To be honest, I never really loved it, but there was a big push for me to have abridge.ed as a title at the time due to an old meme I was also pushing back then. I really didn't want that title-
