Default Re: Title changes

We had a rash of title changes early on in the "we now have Mods" era. Some people think it went a little overboard. In MTT, we've only changed the titles of either a) people who have distinguished themselves in major events; or b) people who are our most distinguished posters usually beyond Carpal /Tunnel status - kind of like the next step beyond that level.

My suggestion is to change titles sparingly but you have to be fair so come up with some policy for yourself and stick to it. Many new posters (incorrectly) assume that titles are correlated with skill. And a custom title almost means that you are even more special than others.

To change a title, you'd edit the user profile just like if you're going to change anything else (posting ability, location, URL, avatar, etc.). Click on their name, click Edit this User, and change the title.
