Atomic Wedgy brought up a good point. With the merging of the forum, he can post on a baseball thread as a 'Fantasy Hockey Expert'. I can't fix this, or differentiate this between the two areas, because it's all one user database now.
To make up for this, while I was changing the titles, I added 14 new ones. We had 11, now we have 25. Here are the titles, along with the post count needed to reach it:
(edit - I made adjustments based on suggestions... busted "icon" down lower on the list, and inserted "Jedi" because it's awesome. Sorry Shoeless, busted down another one! You didn't deserve that haha, but at least now you can reach for a title!)

I like it! Is "genius"/"prodigy" so low on the list a knock against the "I don't know enough to know that I am not the best ever" stage?

My main league:
'Icon' you gotta be ****ing kidding me...the previous title is 'grandmaster' but 'icon' is somehow superior???...sorry dude, but that's the worst title ever -lol...how bout 'ninja'? lol
It would be interesting if, rather than a title, you could create your own slogan/motto/quote. I know we could do that in the signature, but this may be more noticeable and something that would further give us an identity. Or just create our own 'title'.
I went from guru to expert! hahaha. For bringing the flaw to Dobber's attention, I think a custom title should be in order for me. Dobber Sports Jedi
I'm just bummed that my dobberbaseball posts don't merge with my dobberhockey posts! I'd finally crack 4K.
Ah well. I'll get there eventually.
