We need some new higer level titles.... or maybe titles themed after "threads hacking"

Currently we have:
Code
<br />0	stranger<br />25	newbie<br />50	journeyman<br />100	member<br />200	enthusiast<br />400	addict<br />700	old hand<br />1200	veteran<br />1600	Pooh-Bah<br />2500	Carpal Tunnel<br />




Suggestions?

I'm not sure myself, because my users hate the standard titles. BUt I'm not creative enough to think of any cool ones

stallman or navaho

I prefer 'novice' over 'stranger' here - it just sounds a little nicer

I used "Silent Friend" for 0 at measurection... then started the titles at 1.

I may get some feedback here and change them eventually. Depenind on feedback.

I kind of like Gardeners. Theme them after coding/hacking stuff.

but we need steps between 2500 and 10,000.

Maybe I need to go see what ubbdev is using.

But I think we need to be more creative.

Hey...I like being a stranger

We don't use post count user titles at UBBDev. Only the Mods/Admins/Coders have custom titles (or avatars, etc.)

I think that was all based on Allen's decision

In any case, looks like I'll have to resume lurking here.

IMO - Generally most of this titles are funny, but you are too long on this forum that maybe you want to change it

I type like Navaho, I like that one. =]

And this one seems a bit odd:
2500 Vetern

I haven't heard of a Vetern before. What is that? ;]

I've not capitalized my name in my entire life.

You also know that typing like navaho means 17 typos and 18 edits per post?

Well since I spelled Vetern wrong.. I guess I am well on my way to typing like lowercase navaho.

UPDATE w3t_Users
SET U_TotalPosts = U_TotalPosts + 10000
WHERE U_Username = 'JoshPet'

I'm a Guru? A Guru of what? Over 7500 posts and all I am is a Guru?! Hmm, maybe I should go database diving

Look again.



I'm not worthy to be in the presence of a "head honcho" and a "type like navaho" in the same thread.

I better be careful or else Rick will be renaming me to "Bugasaurus Rex". That's what he called me in the shout box.

Still undetermined if that's for finding bugs.... or bugging him... or a little of both.

No I had missed that.

Guess Rick has already dubbed me that.

Mr. Bug is now Bugasaurus Rex. I wonder how long it's been like that and I never noticed.

I laboriously worked my way up through addict and old hand and became a veteran a couple of days ago. Now I'm demoted to Kahuna. Meanwhile Josh has cleverly set up the titles so he'll become a Master Hacker after a few more posts.

I hadn't paid attention. Just combined the old list and Gardener's list to make more levels.

You are probably more of a "Master Hacker".

Maybe my title should be "Chatty Hacker" since I have more posts.

Maybe the staff can deem special titles for those with quality and not quantity.

Oy, I've opened up a can of worms.

I think you were framed.

After the Mr. Bug thing, that had your finger prints all over it.
