I mean, the responsible thing would be to update them but theres no telling how much theme work would need to be done.

Also: Finished unpacking major boxes. Have a few hours of shit left to clean up and have some stuff being delivered tomorrow. Hoping to carve out a chunk of time tomorrow to work on this with a goal of getting it done thursday. Hex is not taking up my time, so lets not go and blame that.

Did you tidy it up? The flat, not the redesigning.

Nearly. Today was a clusterfuck. I posted about it in the Useless Conversation thread.

FOLKS, THIS IS SCHILD ON AN ACCOUNT WITH NO PMS (INSTEAD OF 4,441).
I can only decipher about half the people that donated for custom titles. Most of you put no comments in the box and didn't send me a message. Those of you who commented in the paypal thing or emailed me are being worked on RIGHT NOW.
If you donated, MESSAGE THIS ACCOUNT WITH YOUR REAL NAME SO I CAN CROSSREFERENCE IT.
I want to get everyone (that wants a title) but I don't want to reveal everyone that donated because half the fun is the discovery of the titles and figuring out where it came from.
TL;DR: Message me if you donated on the last go-round. Thanks.
Edit: Yes, I know, the plural of PM is PMS apparently. Good times, seriously though, follow the fucking directions in this post.(ಠ益ಠ)

Some folks asked where I'm coming up with titles since they got theirs. Basically, I read through nearly every single post a user has made. Which is why, though I've started the process, I'm only 6 names deep right now. When I say I need a chunk of time to do these, I actually mean that. I don't want it to be a shitty title. If you forgot you said something ridiculous or insane, well, your custom title will probably serve as a reminder.
In order, I look for the following: 1. Context (yes, I read the posts around posts that I like) 2. Humor (if it's not funny or interesting, fuckit, not worth a custom title) 3. Defining (how much it defines the user, or posting style, or whatever I'm feeling at that moment)
Basically, I spend wayyyyy too much fucking time doing these.

It just makes things slow, and users like you with 20k posts make it a nightmare. Not in a bad way, it just takes an unbelievable amount of time. Which is why it's the first thing to get delayed when I have shit in real life to do.

Yeah I went back and read some of my posts from 2004. There's a reason I don't do politics anymore.

I figure that if your posts (and thinking) hasn't changed in nine years, there's something wrong with you.

I have gotten 5PMs, 2 from the same person and have 13 custom titles i'm working on. Surely there were more? Maybe? Comeon peoples.
Though, maybe there were only 13, a shitload of people requested no new title/no title change for those that currently had one.
Also, had more $49 donations than $50 donations, looooool

Yeah, I for one specifically denied you that dollar with a heavy heart so I can keep my Terracotta Army title. Maybe next year you should demand extra for people to keep the title. You would be rich.

"Title" is the thing in bold under the avatard; "Terracotta Army" is your "group".

I rather glad I'm not up for any titles then, because I honestly don't know what my posts would say about me if someone were looking for a common thread. At least I don't have nearly as many posts to review as some of the spammers blatherers posters here.

2,000 is no small number though.. I've read through about 8,000 posts by the dancing monkey. He's currently the hold-up for six other people right now. Just going in order of donation received.
I haven't found that "right" post yet to trigger something.

I forgot to say something, but the custom titles... should be done. Should. Teleku, not sure what I'm going to do with you, the reason we ask for more for colors is because it takes *effort.* Let's talk about it some time.
Anyway, unstickied. My favorite is Bzalthek's.

No. You did not. You're a special case. I had something funny in the bag and then realized it wasn't quite there. I should've said "I'm done except Raph." Also, I have no clue where you're working right now.

Oh, and something like "the only dev to put up with us for all these years" would do nicely.

You should have gone with it. I don't think you'll top it.
