I understand WHY you want to do it, but I personally think it's a bad idea.

Your mastery of the titling stick is part of what puts this board above others!

You smell that? Do you smell that? ...Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory.

If I could afford it I would without slapping someone with a title.

I had like a 30 dollar subscription(most of it the extra donation) for like three months, then had to cut it off.

I'd do new comics but given that my life's been absolute shit lately, what with getting sick and my heart going berzerk and the one person in the world who was supposed to stick by my side through thick and thin remorselessly kicking me in the teeth at every opportunity, I just haven't been feeling funny lately.

On the plus side, I've been kicking out some good dark fiction. You guys are all in for an interesting surprise in a few months.

I like the idea, but I thought we could allready do this by talking with you directly?

Anyway, I'll have to see if I can get PayPal to work for me again (last time I tried to use them, things got borked). While I like my "Dismembered" title, I do kinda want to change the titles on my alt accounts. (I'm guessing that a primary account can't use the free monthly change on an alt.)

Also, I take it that there will be limits on what a title can say/be? I don't wanna name names, but some of the board members are prime targets for nastyness, and this could turn ugly.

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

I fear what may happen when people get a chance to express their displeasure in such a direct and semi-permanent way.

I'd agree with the "change your own title" part, but paying to change other peoples' titles may lead to significant conflict.

I don't really care.

It'll be nice if I can generate revenue through people playing with my title. I can pull my weight.

At least he can find more creative ways of being an "alien" then to use a sig like "so-and-so is gay". I've heard better out of 5th graders. Jesus, I believe Waisz put it best by saying "Its like a star collapsed and left a superdense ball of stupid".
