Yup. Takes a while to move up in ranks.

Well I was known as E.O.T.L.F. but as that was the name of my now dead company I asked to have it changed and the gods smiled down upon me.

As for other names I first applied as Tazazool but due to some annoying BS on roadrunners part they said that Dumpshock was banned due to a spam problem.

I tried to log in to Tazazool but found I could not because I didn't get the first email I guess so I just signed up under another name like 2 days later as Tazazool was now taken.

Now I am Casazil and it is all good as for my title I donated some money got a custom title which is cool and all but status? if you say so I just think it looks cool to have a title that is different.

I have see several people post tons of stuff but as I have been here there are certain names that when I see they posted something I read it cause over the years what they have had to say was interesting.

Yes some of them have high post counts but others don't. A title means nada to me what you say is allot more important so if your know to me as an informative poster I could careless if your title was streetbum or Dunkelzhan weather your post count is 100 or 1,000,000 so long as what you post is worth reading.

Yes I know one persons worthy subject is anothers crap topic as the saying goes you can't please all the people all the time.

Hell, I suggested it and I'm still just a Moving Target.

I'm a runner!:D
SL James
I love my new Title.

Thank you.
emo samurai
Why don't I get a title? I have more posts than SL... frown.gif

I was thinking "Named Horror"
Kagetenshi
You do. "Runner".

Not a unique one, though.

Custom titles have been recieved (correct me if I miss any) via:

Donation drives
Writing for FanPro as a freelancer
Adding a lot to the Shadowrun community
Being a Missions coordinator

I think there are more, but I can't place any other ways off the top of my head.
Kagetenshi
Being an admin or moderator.

Well, yes, but I considered those givens.
nezumi
Uh oh...

Donation drives Emo is a college student, so not a lot of money
Being a Missions coordinator Isn't that location based?

So that leaves:
Writing for FanPro as a freelancer
Adding a lot to the Shadowrun community

I fear.

No, there's just 1 person with this job at a given time. Essentially, the coordinator finds volunteer writers and artists to work on the Shadowrun Missions adventures, coordinates the adventures so that they form some semblance of a plot, edits and lays them out, answers questions sent to the Missions@srrpg.com address, and moderators the Shadowrun Missions forum on dumpshock.

That and Neuron Basher hates donation drives and intends to not do them ever again (as came up during the debate over the advertising when it started).

~J

Edit: too many bashers.
emo samurai
Would submitting a short story that gets put on their website count?
Tanka
That would be up to the admins. I've no clue on their custom title policy.
SL James
It is rather meaningless if everyone has one, or if they're even marginally difficult to get.
emo samurai
How did you get yours? And I disagree; it's something everyone can identify themselves with even if everyone has one.
SL James
That's what a username is for.
emo samurai
I think it'd fit me to be called a "Named Horror," though.
Adam
The "Freelancer" tag is no longer being updated and will be removed at some point whenever major forum upgrades are completed.

The username's still available.

Good rule of thumb? Don't ask for a title smile.gif

If there's a public oppurtunity for a title, such as a donation drive, we'll let you know. (Which we are not currently doing nor have plans to do one anytime soon, or ever again if we can help it smile.gif)

Other than that... <shrug> There's not really any sort of method. Enjoy being a Target. smile.gif
