ShinGamix 1 Report post Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) Click on Profile in the upper NAVBAR! Then Click on "Edit my Profile". Under the setting/ general settings area [Which should be displayed by default!] Scroll down about half a page photo>Time Zone>Comments & Vistors>Friends>Profile Information! Look right under "Edit my about me page" button It should say member title. Fill in the box with some spammy member title to display or random text! Scroll ALL the way down Click Save Changes button! There you go Numnuts! While you are there you can also put me in as the member who referred you! Edited December 31, 2012 by ShinGamix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Polraudio 122 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 You need more posts to change your title. I can't remember the exact number but i think its 100 posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Yeah you need a 100 posts, but until then, it will change once you get to certain post counts. I think the next one is at 25 posts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthVollis 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Well, not to sound mean but how do you get points? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Not points, posts. You have 4 already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthVollis 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Sorry, I misread it. Posts. Wow, I was wondering when points started. (laughing) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Haha. That's a good idea though, using points to unlock the member title. I do plan to make points a pretty part of GDU life :P http://www.gdunlimited.net/roadmap (see points system). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthVollis 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 @Marked - Since it was sort of my idea can I have a little credit for it? I would like to have a presence somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saltome 16 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Actually If you ask me people shouldn't get to pick their title like that, your title is your standing in the community. It's given to you by your peers to reflect your contribution to the community, not your ego. But I don't suppose a class system wouldn't be very high on the priority list right now.

DarthVollis 0 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 I guess that really depends on the way it is done. IT would be kinda cool it receive a proper title, but I want a certain title that I don't think would be available that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Saltome 16 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Well I guess it depends of your understanding of the word title. In my sense a title should be given to you by your peers, so its them who decide what the actual titles they give out are. On the other hand if you just want a cool nickname, you should be able to pick one for yourself. I'd say, separate titles from nicknames. If you have a nickname display it over your title, otherwise display the title. And then there are other possible compromises, that don't even involve making changes to the website. Like having your peer giving you a title that matches the one you want. Or even have control over a part of the title, like your peer gives you the title of Prince, but you get to choose what are you a Prince of, like Prince of Darkness, Prince of the Forest, Prince of Space, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
