Excellent -- I was hoping you guys would start posting your own pet pictures. Needless to say, the ones shown so far get an "Awwwww."

I'm trying to talk Tarn-Vedra into showing us Caesar, his puppy. I've gotta be careful, though... if I push him too hard, he may panic and cut himself off from the slipstream. That's always a pain to get fixed.

Oh, if we're gonna break out the deceased pets pictures, I have a whole load of those...

(No, that sentence doesn't parse well. Deal with it.)

Zeke has, by the by, said before that member titles is something that he most definitely will be bringing back at some point.

I used to have two cats growing up, but I can't seem to locate any photos of them. My wife and I also had aquatic frogs in a fishtank for a while, but I can't find pictures of them either.

As for member titles, I recall having "5MD Station Head" (a joke still reflected in the 5MD FAQ) and "Mr. Mrs. Blueberry" (or something like that), though I know there have been others for me. I also remember that I was not given "self-similar," though it was considered.

And I remember Celeste with "Cuter than this cat," which was great since I think she had the wagging puppy tail avatar for longer than she ever had the cat avatar.

Yes, I also had the longest running title too. I need to find another cute Bernese Mt dog avatar. Hmm, maybe I *will* use the tattoo on my butt.

All right, I'm coming clean. I'm still relatively new here, and I must admit that I don't have a clue what Member Titles were. Could someone explain?

Look to the left.

No, a bit more.

Not that much.

Your *other* left.

Yes, there. See your name?

No, not your name name. Your nickname.

Fine, codename, whatever. Do you see it?

Good. Now look down.

No, it's only South when you're reading a map. I said down.

I don't care where it would be if your screen tumbled off the desk. It's down from your nickname.

Yes, codename. I get it. Codename. Below your codename.

There.

Yes, that thing.

No, not the picture.

Yes, I know you like pictures.

The thing between your nickname and picture.

Codename, okay? I meant codename. Between codename and pic...avatar?

Is avatar okay?

Between your codename and avatar.

That's your member title.

And they used to be different for everyone.

No, they're not all the same now.

Yes, there's special titles for section heads and such.

No, you can't be in charge of silly forum games.

Well, you could be, but don't ask me. Ask Zeke.

Zeke.

Guy who runs this?

The Canadian?

Yes, that Zeke. Bug him.

Go. Tell him I sent you.

...on second thought, tell him everyone but me sent you.

Gotcha. We have those on the other forum I post on, but I hadn't heard that name used.

Oh, by the way, I'll be willing to post my pet pics if some can host them, you see, well, I'm homepageless. Yep. No webspace at all. Mom's rules.

You can see a great example of a member title, if you look above my Avatar!


Also, if you want, if they're not too big, you can email them to me, and I'll host them, or you can use a free Image Hosting Service, like PhotoBucket or ImageShack.

I don't have any pictures of your cats, but here are Paulus and Varro (pic's not that great, I don't know which one's which, and yes, I named them after Roman consuls from the Second Punic War).

Oo!Oo! I vote for NeoMatrix. Or Opium! Yah! The second one! :wink:

Hmm, not even done the second page and already off topic...just the way we like it... :twisted:

Once I get some batteries for my camera I'll have some more photos.

Possibly. Celeste got tired of it after a couple of years and I didn't want the in-joke to die, so I might have given that title to Cat for a while. Regardless, the "sea cats" one is her classic member title, and she even redesigned her avatar to go with it.

(You may be thinking of the time I changed Cel's title to "Cuter than Cat" and waited for the fireworks.)

Derek is quite right about the avatar. Celeste's title would never have lasted as long as it did if she hadn't switched to a dog. I didn't notice at first, but Owen pointed it out to me in a message I remember right down to the wording: "Celeste's new avatar + her old member title = COMEDY GOLD". e, picture this avatar with the message "Cuter than this cat" and you'll see why I never tried to improve on it.

Eventually Celeste missed being part of the member-title insanity (a trademark of this forum), so I gave her something else. Not long afterwards all the member titles were lost in a failed mod attempt. I'll reinstall them when I can. (It won't be till I have my home connection working again, though. See my post in News.)

Gatac wins post of the week.
