Gathering of the Figments

This site is low on numbers... so why not organize a competition in which the winner is the one that recruits the most new members?

Well, what is your policy with custom titles?

hmm.. now thats's and idea....
i hadn't thought of that....
how would you go about it...?
If they win they chosse it, or just a special tittle that goes with the site that i have thought of? i don't know....
all of my titles that i have are to do with this website... you'll find out when you reach the numbers what they are.....
so should it be something like that?
suggestions on how we should so this are much appreciated....
what if we have people suggesting new titles, and the person who suggests the winner gets to be that rank and we keep it for special people who win things???
My Mods would help to decide and vote on their favourite ones of course....

Figgy.

I had a similar forum once, and I think that Admin can personally change the custom title by clicking on a username.

yeah, they can.
i was just wondering as to the finer points of chosing a name for it.... like if we were to have a competition within a competition and the mods would chose the name from a list suggested by members, they could enter as many times as they liked, and that title would apply to the winner of that competion and the winner of the "bringing in members" comp would both recieve that title? i dunno, was just wondering how you meant it....

Well, in HDM.org, when a person reaches a certain amount of posts- 2600 I believe- they receive a Custom Title, and they have the little title changed to whatever they request (within reason- it is appropriate, etc.). This is one option, or you could choose the special title that they are given of course.
