Yes there is. The default is "YaBB God", however we couldn't have that kind of silly title, now could we?

Lochar'll get a nice suprise when he hits that (probably less than two months, i'd estimate)

By the way, I wonder why the change of >= 250 posts title from Da'Shar, first to Spammer (I reallu don't appreciate the change), then to Forum-Addict (better, but I liked Da'Shar much more). Is Furum-Addict the default YaBB title, or something? I'd rather have FelBooks/Sennadar based titles, as the rest are: Novice, Initiate, Sorcerer.

Is that a challenge?  I'm guessing that the 500+ is going to be Consumed.


Oh, and Shadow.  They probably changed that because of me.

If 250 would be Da'Shar, 500 could be Mi'Shara. Or should it be ka'dashi (if I remember correctly) and Da'Shar? Or maybe 500+ would be personalized God title, if it is possible, like 'God of Knowledge' for Lochar  :P

Sometime in the last incarnation of this forum, there was a post detailing the posting level names.  I'm pretty sure that 500+ used to be Si'kun.  But considering that the admins are playing with the names...i doubt that its still that.

Also, since you have to be born a Si'kun...it really didnt make sense anyway.
Scientists dream it up.
Engineers make it work.

No, and No. Try again :)

No, Forum-Addict isn't the default title. They were originally based on Sennadar titles, but someone thought they'd have a little joke.

Well, Spammer title is definitely a bad joke. Forum-Addict is quite fine. Hmmm... I wonder whether Da'Shar title was just moved from 250+ to 500+ (and is there 1000+ threshold).

Perhaps you could use other stories' titles, like faey, telepath, or even empress ;D.

It doesn't bother me what the titles are, except I really didn't like Spammer.  Anything that doesn't have to do with that title is ok.

38 to go.

Oh, and

No, and No. 500+ is the final threshold on this forum software. I'll be moving the forum over to new software and a new host sometime in the future.

The performance of the current host isn't great, especially not for the stuff I'd like to do - despite all the features they advertise.
