Joshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Yeah, I remember the lovely my new "cutsom" title thread. I think I changed a lot since then.. It seems back then you also could use points to buy a custom title for yourself or someone else. I think it was thousandanythingandthelike points per title. I remember the points system generating a lot of spam, but people also got pissed because other people were changing their custom titles in the way Thrik did to Das, (except they did it with points instead of Godly Admin priviledges) and were never able to change it back until they had enough posts or points.
Ray Jones Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Thrik had no admin pws in 2003. I thought is was pretty fun. I never would have gotten a custom title that quick. The first ever was "Monkey" then "Threeheaded monkey" XD lol. Nah. I think "Psycho posse clown" was cool.
Joshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Hmm, so he didn't. Ah the old Monkey Island Forum Ranks. Wannabe Pirate for anyone under ten (or thirty) posts I think, then Monkey, then Three Headed Monkey at around 500 I think. and The Custom title, but I'm not sure what you got if you didn't choose a custom title. Good times.
Fealiks Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I can remember that. In the star wars boards it started as bantha fodder I think but I can't remember. Why did they abbandon that?
Joshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 They didn't abandon it, it got lost in the Forum upgrade and no one's had a chance to incorporate them back in (there's a rather long thread about it in the feedback forums). Whether they come back or not is totally up to the Admins, but until then, people below 1000 (except Fealiks and Random admins that hardly ever post) are stuck with Registred User. :/
Ray Jones Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Just to clearify that, good times are when you can say premature ejaculation three times quickly without being ready before you finished saying it. That or Fealiks is not a registered user at the forum you're posting in.
Fealiks Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Hey I'm only ten posts away from changing it back... yay.
Ray Jones Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I think you're only 9 posts away from getting your postcount frozen in.
Ray Jones Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I'm certain that, concerning this, there's literally nothing to put there without creating redundance.
Fealiks Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 If he freezes it at 1,000, that wouldn't be as but still would suck.
Joshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 freezing at 999 would be hella funny. I'm not too sure if it's possible though, possibly all he'd be able to do is continuously alter your post count to 999 all the time, but that would be tiresome.
Alien426 Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I just imagine this elaborate script that kicks in every time Fealiks posts. Before returning to the thread it would display a message telling him that his post count was reset to 999 and also half a screen of ne-ner-ne-ners. Someone should also alter his avatar and prevent him from using his CP.
Joshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I think we're bordering on the Mean here. Not that I have a problem with that.
Thrik Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 You guys are mad. I'd never mess with someone's post count.
Joshi Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Yes, and on a completely unrelated topic, I'd like to give a big, warm Monkey Island welcome to our newest member, Fealiks!
RicardoLuigi... Posted August 30, 2006 Author Posted August 30, 2006 Yeah, I remember the lovely my new "cutsom" title thread. i almost vaguely remember that. i should go back and check.
Fealiks Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Oh crap I didn't know you could re-set it... I thought it was permanant, now I feel bad.... you may want to change your email adress... and don't ever visit matchmaker.com
Ray Jones Posted August 31, 2006 Posted August 31, 2006 Oh my.. just for a short moment.. you should start thinking.
Fealiks Posted September 1, 2006 Posted September 1, 2006 If the wrong time is never then the right time must be always, meaning there is no wrong time, it is always the right time. If it is always the right time, it can never be the right time as there is nothing to oppose it to, so there is no wrong or right time, therefore I think an average amount.
