Titles

Is there any way to get us to title ourselves so that we don't have to waste Your time?

Really, I suppose what this question means is, "Can we get it so that rogues can somehow title themselves without pissing off the gods."

And, as they almost never show Themselves... glare.gif

I second that
Hazar2005-02-09 06:51:13
And I...second his seconding. Or third it. Or some such.

*quite voice in back* Nay *run and hide*
Hazar2005-02-09 07:05:15
Quiet.

If people could title themselves we would be overrun with titles like..."Insert names Beloved" and "Insert names Snuggle Bunny" or other horrible titles.
Gwylifar2005-02-09 14:20:41
There's too many of those already.

Maybe there should be a possibility for rogues to title themselves. They would need to go to Hall of Clans and Cartels and pay, let's say, 10k gp for it.
But yeah, who will prevent them from making some silly or ooc referencing title then...

Why don't the leaders change those when they see them? Or are those of us that think titles like that are wrong, a minority? fear.gif

Yeah, people don't seem to care quite so much (or they're just too busy to argue about it) it's gotten better, though.
Richter2005-02-09 16:29:44
There are too many stupid titles right now anyway, and compared to the total population, there aren't many rogues.

I like the hall of clans and cartels idea, maybe 5k.

Yea rogues should be able to title themselves, they ARE apart from society more than most so who cares if their title isnt what you like. Rogues are nonconformists so their titles wont be cookie cutter.

Its like all other aspects of Lusternia, the reason people dont want to let rogues title themselves is because thats one less group of people they can control.

Power to the peons. I almost never refuse a persons title unless its blatently a sex reference, in poor taste or is so sweet your fillings want to explode in your head.

People love controling every aspect of other players game experience and I love breaking there little grasping fingers off of people so they can be free to enjoy the game.

Its a nice idea but I dont think this will happen because the gods dont want to have to police rogue names themselves when they can have over zealous players do it for them.

Oohh that is a good idea..

5K to change your title at the Hall of records.

I don't really like the idea of having to pay for titles. It seems to me like something everyone is entitled to. (*guffaw* no pun intended)But seriously, I like having my titles, even though they are sometimes silly. Not everything in Lusternia has to be so serious all the time. Anyways, being a rogue is really systematically discouraged in all IRE games. Most of us rogues are pretty experienced, and I think we know what is an acceptable title and what is not. We should be able to title ourselves.
Shiri2005-02-10 16:22:25
...surprisingly few rogues know what a good title is. If other IRE is any indication, anyway. 5k's maybe a bit much though, actually. I say 1k. happy.gif

Perhaps the rogues could add requested title changes to a queue that could just be glanced over by the gods every day or so to delete the ridiculous ones and set all the others in one go? That way, they wouldn't have to bug gods about it all the time.
Daganev2005-02-10 21:17:41
Naw, make rogues pay a ridiculous amount of money for thier title. If its important, they will pay it. 1K gold can easily be made in an hour or so, you want to discrouage title change, not have it a normal thing.

That idea sounds the most feasible to me. Might cut out on retarded titles as well if someone has to approve it first.
Daganev2005-02-10 22:38:43
OH sure, waste more of the admins time on something inane

I think 5K gold will be its own retarded title retardant.

It -is- sad that people don't have sense enough not have silly titles that the
administration would have to regulate. However, someone needs to if people don't have sense enough to know that some titles are not appropriate or good RP.
