Could it be you're looking in the wrong place? - Do you realize your user rank title is in bold under your name and custom user title in the postbit?

Do you realize the first line is your user name, the second is your user title, and the third is your user rank.  I installed a hack to change your rank, the second item in the list, depending on your level.  Your custom user pronouncement won't change until an admin changes it or you reach the level where you can change it and you do.

EDIT: Oh shit - he's of level to pick an avatar! Run and HIDE!!

And I'm assuming that at some point we're going to be able to choose which "class" of user rank will show for us?

Rumor has it you do this by editting your profile.

One other thing a frog told me that you in particular can do is receive PM's.  I think he's lying, but check your inbox anyway.

Ok, apparently admins and mods are seeing what was intended and everyone else is seeing only the default.  Let me check one possible quick fix and if that don't work I'll have to fix it this evening after work.

EDIT: Ok, there, that *might* fix it.

Post by: Guest (Deleted) on March 03, 2006, 09:23:21 PM
The official word from the rat down the street who spend 6 hours thinking up the titles is "I suppose I could redo the code to account for gender, but then I'd get complaints from the folk who would consider "priestess" to be somehow diminuative.  Anyway, I took the Magic: The Gathering approach - for instance the "Priest of Titania" is clearly female in the illustration but they still used priest  because that is the gender neutral title."

I suppose I could write the title is the language of Arani, a race which practices polyandri and who's language uses the feminine as the gender neutral, then the titles would be

"Ia soshai codri"
"Coblepriani"
"Sacani"
"Lisani"
"Ooyacani" - the masculine of which would be "Ooyacanoi" except that men aren't allowed into the priesthood of this people.

Could also make the female version another class, but that's boring.

True.

Also, it isn't that much of an unusual kink among my kindred. The environment can only support a certain number of super predators such as myself, thus we must keep our numbers relatively low, which leads us to find other ways to, ahem, get our jollies, IYKWIMAITYD. :o

Quote from: Cat of Ulthareh... what's petite exactly?:o

Petite is a French word, the feminine form of "petit" (meaning small), that has been adopted into English to describe girls or women that are small, slender, and trim.

With 6 ft., you're one foot too tall to be described as petite.
Title: These are the User titles.
Post by: BOZ on March 06, 2006, 12:40:18 PM
indeed.  even thin as a rail, 6' is too tall to be petite.  likewise, 5' and 300 pounds is not petite either.  i'd say under 5'5" and definitely under 150.
