Rob,

I realize that the number of posts on the forum determine what title a person gets. In my case, I don't feel I deserve the title "Inkjet Guru" as yet, no matter how many posts I have posted.

Perhaps you could have a "title reduction-by-request" rule.

For instance, if I reached the number of posts that routinely determine my title as "Inkjet Guru", but I thought I only merited some lesser title, so as to not mislead the members who don't know me or my work, I would be allowed to opt for a title reduction to some less inkjet-knowledgeable sounding title.

If and when a "title reduction-by-request" rule were to be established, I would request a reduction from "Inkjet Guru" to something like: "Wise and Creative Genius" :p perhaps with a sub-title* "Who is only a beginner with Inkjets".

Comments?





I was at least half serious, really.

*Sub-titles are very popular in book, movie, and TV titles, so why not in people titles?

hahaha.... very interesting dilemma for sure!

The titles are for fun more than anything and I think the majority of site visitors get that. If anyone is truly concerned about it we can do the following:

1) Can you edit your "title" in your profile settings under "Personal"?
2) You could add something in your profile or signature that says "I'm not an Inkjet Guru... I just play one on TV.... er... the forum!"
3) I can change your post count to send you back to newbie! ;)
4) I can change your "Title" in your profile.
