I thought that already was a rule.

Do you think you guys could maybe make it a rule that if you constantly reply to obvious trolls, you get an infraction? Or something like that? These people keep coming back because some members here are stupid/oblivious enough to continuously fuel the fire and give them the attention that they need and want.

What is the requirement to have a custom title for a user. Is it contribution or loyalty that the user has been here long?

Depends. Like I said, some just get them randomly from us, others get them for having done something or been part of something, etc... Most people that have a custom title have them for having been site contributors somehow, though, but there are a few exceptions.

Okay thanks carn(Stu can be confusing O_o). What is the requirement to have a custom title for a user. Is it contribution or loyalty that the user has been here long?

Stu's just banned for a couple of days. (Should be back by the end of the week)
It's just a little bit long overdue vacation.
No worries. I think he was already packing and looking forward to it.

[edit]Didn't I mention in your infraction post the expiration period for it? Standard time - aka. 10 days[/edit]


Custom titles really don't have any affection on people's privileges (newsposting, forum status, etc.). Most people with custom statuses have somehow won them (Boulder Incident + icon), or randomly had them thrown at them from the admins while we've been bored... Though, some have requested them or gotten them as they are site partners and all that stuff. You know how some people who site logos for various other RE sites have custom titles to go with their logos and stuff.

How long will my infraction wear off and Stu getting unbanned if you don't mind me asking carn.

[Alzaire]

Custom titles have no effect on abilities or privileges.

[Stu]

Doesn't mean much really though...mods and admins can still see anything i deleted anyway haha

You were probably given a special privilege by one of the admins as a trusted user so you have that ability. Though were you oblivious to it all until carn told you O_o

[Stu]

I don't think custom titles have any extra privileges...at least i wasn't told about them anyway.

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware you don't create news in the News Archive board.

Maybe people with Special custom titles do, for instance your "Sturoboros in pink"

[Stu]

I post the newses on Biohaze, not on THIA.

Don't users that have access to posting in "News Archive" have powers to delete his/her own posts? Like you Stu?

[Stu]

Oh! My bad, sorry. I didn't think it was possible to delete posts that already had replies after them.

[Carnivol]

Can you please delete my posts too? I may be argumentative, but not with myself!

edit: Not to mention it looks like i'm having a pop at the wrong guy now haha

You can actually delete your own posts, but I went ahead and did it for you now (+sorry, Canas! -1 post count to you! I ate one of yours too)
