z-Carver Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Here's a question for the group at large - are the 'Character Titles' underneath our character's name IC labels or OOC? And if they're IC, then how do we handle IC being called a 'baseline' for the first 100 posts? I'd like to know what the board thinks about this.Thanks for your input in advance.

Lou Anne Burgess Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 They're OOC and I thought they'd been mentioned by Chosen somewhere, but I can't remember where I read it.As far as it being treated as IC, I think Lou Anne's eruption was somewhere around the 80th post she made, so I have no problem with it being IC. But I suspect I'm significantly in the minority on that count.From the argum..er...discussion about the '08 charter however, absolutely no Non-Novas are allowed in that setting, so even if you wanted it IC for '17, you'd have to ignore it or treat it as OOC for '09.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashnod Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I had Ashnod initially refuse to join the "new" forums when the transition was made from the old Opposing Views, because she did not want a "baseline" forum title, so I've always kind of looked at them as IC but nothing more than an indication of posting experience.

Warren Verona Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I kinda just quit noticing them. Although how'd you get 'Dreamsculptor' under yours, that's kewl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z-Carver Posted April 24, 2007 Author Share Posted April 24, 2007 Chosen contacted me after I started this post and showed me a bit from the FAQ that says they're OOC.

It is cool, and thanks to Ashnod for making a custom title the prize! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seph OOC Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I shit you not, not to get all Connery, here, but when I first saw this thread I thought it said 'Character Titties'. I said to myself, "Finally! A thread for ME!" But no, no. Damn.Anyway, I've always taken it as obvious that the titles were OOC. Only novas are allowed on the forums, IC. The titles are just indicative of who's posted here longer than the noobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlotte Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 One thing they have at the Something Awful forums is the ability to spend a few bucks and "buy" your own custom forum title.I think this would be a cool way to raise green for the server while getting something back from it. Any takers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seph OOC Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I like the idea.Also, will we be able to pay the same amount of cash to change someone else's title? Man. That would be boss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
