Unique Titles?

[Murad]

This is just an idea from another forum.

Why not add another item to the shopping depot
Unique Titles(under name) which can be purchased with Tokens or/and Won from nominations.

Opinions?

[Murad]

I've found a mod that might work. I'll see if I can get it integrated.

Cool; cant wait for this.

OK, I've got it in place now.

How much would be a reasonable amount for a custom title?

I suggest 2000, and maybe that winners of Best debater, Rookie of the year and Most civil debater get a custom title for free.

I also suggest that moderators' and admins' names should stay green/yellow even if they are site supporters, and even though I like purple better... I suppose asking to switch mods to purple and supporters to green would just make me annoying, though

Guess I'm a cheapskate, I was thinking more like 500 tokens.

I've made some additional changes, so it should be this way now. If not, post here on where you see this.

Or maybe I'm an elitist! I don't know, I just think that the cheaper you make custom titles, the less special they become.

2000 tokens to spare more often than not means at least one of three things about the member:

- Made a donation to the forum
- Has been around and debating for a while
- Received a good MPG donation (hopefully for a good post)

To expand on the point Lucia was making, adding a minimum membership time and a minimum number of posts(In debate sub-forums) might also add some exclusivity to it.

Not advocating it, but depending on the idea behind it it could work.

Seems to me titles are somewhat less impressive on the whole than, say, your own user group you get control of, or, for that matter, a whole forum. I'm not sure a large token amount would be appropriate for 30 characters of text below your avatar or however long it is. If we were starting from scratch, I would say title for 500, group for 1000 and forum for 2000-2500 would be suitable, but at this point it may be less than optimal to move around other values.

Or at least for sponsors to provide more incentive?

Site Supporters are now colored in the online list on the home page.

Cool! But how come they can't be purple throughout the entire forum, such as when posting in threads?

[LiamOS]

I'll take care of that.

Done.
