As per the Wile-E-Coyote cartoon in which Mr. Coyote shows his business card ( Wile-E Coyote, super genius ) and at the end of which states ( My name is mud )
I ask for the (my name is mud) to be used under my avatar rather than (science officer)
I'm told that these are chosen at the whims of the administrator, I cannot choose one myself

And so what does the administrator do ? Places ( Emailed Bob, got a new title ) under my avatar
Thanks geekzilla, that's what one should expect from an administrator, good job. :shock:

Careful mud, you're not allowed to discuss the whims -- er, I mean, decisions -- of the admins in the forum. If you do that, your name will be Mud.

It's true. I even PM'ed you about it. If you could change it yourself, there'd be an option in your profile.

Did you notice that all members with custom titles all have over 500 posts? It's a privilege (???) you haven't earned.

That's not true. There are some people I've had memorable interactions with that I've put various titles on. As Rob so dutifully notes, this one is actually a whim.
