Special Titles and User Types
« on: 25 January 2011, 20:06:24 »
Would it be appropriate to start a thread for people who had special ranks (Agents, CamoSpecs, MUL, etc.) and/or special titles (Top Shelf Killa' for example) or is that something we should take to an admin in PM?

I'd say it'd be appropriate.  If for no other reason than to get a recount on "who" is "what".  It gets convoluted after a while to remember that "guy 647 isn't with the Demo Program anymore, but lurks and so nobody remembered to change his Mech".
Every time a grognard comes to realise the game can't survive purely on his dog-eared copy of the Warrior Trilogy, duct-taped CityTech boxed set and personal sense of spite and has taken a tack of mild concern for the future marketability of the game...an angel gets its wings.

At one time, many CBT boards ago, I held the illustrious title of "fuzzy marsupial" . Naturally I would have gotten there (eventually) again had some **** not hacked the board. Oh well. I'm just happy to be back again.

It would probably be good to know who to PM of all the admins.

It's sign of the sad state of the forums when you're the voice of logic and reason, Kit...   :P

So, who's in charge of it this time?

Actually it isn't the forum Admins that you PM.  :-\
AFAIK, Catalyst agents have to PM Southpaw13, and then he will ask forum Admin to turn on your catalyst Mech symbol.  :)

I think the Top Shelf Killa' titles should be put up! That is a great idea!

Depending on what pawn shop, I'd probably simply be shot to avoid it.

You and Spector need to post in the Demo Team board.
