Well, let's see. She Avgs 30 posts per day. At that rate in one year, (30 x 365) she will have 10,950 posts.

Erm... ya.

I think that "negative" custom titles detract from the forums. They confuse other members, have the potential to anger those who have them if they don't understand why, and might lead to situations such as this one. "Banned" and "warned" should be enough.

Then again, that's just my highly depreciated two cents.

EDIT: For the curious, my newer-ish CT has nothing to do with this recent event. I changed it before I found out about this earlier today. It has everything to do with my life in general. This is all anyone needs to know.

On the matter of derogatory Custom Titles, I agree with Steve.

 While admittedly, the titles can be amusing, they offer nothing in the way of helping the members correct their problems. Contrary to that, they can be insulting to that particular person, and only encourage further misconduct. My personal feeling on this is that it breeds a sort of elitism. Not necessarily in the sense that those giving the titles are acting in such a manner, but that it can foster the perception from the perspective of those on the receiving end, and those whom they regard as friends. Though perhaps in a slight way, without a structured way of dolling out Custom Titles, they may only serve the purpose of dividing the forum more so than it already is.
 
 Any benefits a derogatory Custom Title may achieve can be done without the negative repercussions through a simple Private Message.

Heh, I just now noticed pt_peach's new CT. XD

Seriously, she hasn't been here very long and yet she has around 1,100 posts!!! Next year she might have around 13,921!

Dang, it took me half a year to get that many.

Actually, I know how pt_Peach got her post count that high. The fastest way is to spam posts in Mario Word Association and StupidQ&A.

I don't think I post spam when I post on those topics. Their topics, so posting on them the things that are supposed to be posted on them is not spam.
