Or the mods can give you one. Wink  Had been to a board where you sometimes earned a title based on what you did or what you said.
Wouldn't that be a bit hard to keep track of?
You could earn a title if you contibuted any good ideas or did something extraordinary.

Season Namer is a rank given to the current Season Namer (kinda obvious Roll Eyes). When a new Season Namer is chosen, Tiria will go back to being just a Hero Member.

They did it to be funny...if you said anything outrageous, it often appeared as your title.  Tongue

But what if someone named themselves after a character that is not a Badger Lord/Lady? Like me? OK< I know htat's a very small detail, but I was just pointing it out. Wink

Actually, that could be considered by some to be a very large detail, and enough reason to not desire ranks.

I would gather that most would not want Badger Lord/Lady ranks if they aren't into the badger characters.  Could you see me with a badger rank and it fitting?  Or Matthias?  Generic ranks are fine and please the most members.

I've definitely known forums where people got custom titles after they said or did something embarrassing. Usually the titles were goofy innocent things, but you'd find a few that clearly weren't flattering. Such as "*does not want a member title*". As for me, I got a custom title on one board by being patient, making intelligent posts, and never seeing a rank as anything to gloat about. Then one day... I got the title "wamakaskanskan". It's the Lakota word for 'spirit', or so I'm told. Reason for that is I was into "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron" at the time.

Topics asking about ranks and whether custom titles are allowed are pretty common. Best thing to do is ignore what rank you are. Or if you really want something there, then see if maybe there's a "slogan" section... heck, you should be happy enough just in having a unique signature. Rank is not a big deal.

Generally, ranks aren't really a good indication of anything anyways. I was just saying it cause it can be fun. If everyone's fine with generic names, I'm fine with it too! Grin

Hey! I have an idea! What if we had 'positions' that people could apply for, like Abbot, Badgermum, Abbey Warrior, etc. They have that sort of thing on Redwall's Legacy. I was just wondering! Wink
Still, I'm fine with generic ranks if the above wouldn't work.
