First draft:

Special titles can now be requested after 1000 posts.

Phew, that took a lot of working out.

Can I add the post count from the old board :p?

Friends don't let friends take up scrapbooking!

If so, can I have seven more titles?

Is this what the partially filled in bar just over my avatar means? I've been wondering about that one.

The bar only goes to 500.

So what happens when it's hit 500?

The world expodes.

All right, I get it, no more questions.

Yes, I agree that posts on the old board should count (just checked & I had 594); it should be a reward for all of us fine people who upped sticks from what they knew & joined this great board.

Besides, I'm on this board everyday but don't write comments that much, and it'd take [i:46a3efdfd9]years[/i:46a3efdfd9] for me to reach 1,000! Took me over 4 years to get 594!

Although it might get very confusing for newbits when they start to wonder where exactly these 1000 posts have gone...

True, true. But newbies are generally confused anyway :o

Though I'm tempted to agree with TheJackal as it would instantly qualify me for a title (roughly), I think it would be fairer to the newbies if we all stuck to one limit.

I recall there being a brief period of time after moving here when every oldbie could request a title, though. Should posters who regret not requesting one then be allowed to request one now?

I don't see a problem with that. It's just a bit o' fun. But once you pick a name you gotta stick with it till 1000 posts. Otherwise the whole thing would just colapse into name changing carnage!

Exactly - think of the Four Other Bikers in Good Omens!

500+ and the world hasn't exploded ! I want my mon(k)ey back !
