Title: These Stupid Titles
Post by: Mistress of Darkness on August 25, 2003, 01:38:06 PM
I just wanted to rant a little bit about how for the last 3 levels I have been "Camel Poo Shoveler" of some sort. It's very annoying and probably only annoys me, and please don't change the level names so that I'll always be a "Camel Poo Shoveler" because then I would cry.

Post by: Mistress of Darkness on August 25, 2003, 01:39:09 PM
And if you see me making pointless/aimless replies to threads, it's because I'm hoping that Level 7 is something other than "Camel Poo Shoveler" and so I'm trying to get my reply count up.

Heh, maybe next level will be Camel Spit Shoveler. That'd be something fierce funny.

The titles are actually the result of your computer probing inter your psyche where it discovers your inner-most occupational desire and assigns it. The more you post the more the computer percieves about your self-being.

This is our new computer-psychic technology that makes it all possible.

I'm glad that someone finally appriciated/was annoyed by our hours and hours of tireless labor developing clever names, such as "Camel Poo Shoveler."

And, uh, I really can't remember how many Camel Poo professions there are.  We had to come up with a whole lot of names...

Post by: JP Dogberry on August 25, 2003, 10:34:11 PM
You have to admit, though, camel poo is a pretty big industry. I mean, camel poo shovelers really run society. Without them, we would be forced to walk among the filth of camel poo all day long. Respect them.

I should? How do you figure that? How could I possibly be proud of being a camel poo shoveler, expert or not? Where is the glory in being really good at shovelign camel poo? Where does one learn that anyway?

And why? Camels live in a big dessert. The Sahara desert is not a litter box that needs cleaning.

I know. I chose to be a student of Martial Arts. I seriously doubt that any self-respecting student of anything, be it Martial Arts or Underwater Basket Weaving would put up with this crap.

duh, because you're an expert. You can now go on TV and be a panel "Expert." They never ask what you're an expert in.

Besides, it's some sort of Buddhist thing. You're supposed to learn about the nature of the universe by learning about the nature of shoveling camel poo.

They didn't. Notice how so many people have titles like "Level 28" or "Level 23." Those aren't hte COOL names, those are the names that they haven't come up with yet.

Or maybe they are the cool names. This is a forum of nerds after all.
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: 42 on August 29, 2003, 08:24:38 PM
I came up with all 99 titles for the student of servitude class.

I suggest people just come up with 99 titles and send them to Fell or EUOL, becuase they are just too lazy to think of titles on their own.

Ah, MoD, but before you were only an expert at shoveling the poo.  Now you're an expert at all forms, varieties, and professions involving camel poo.  That's quite a step up from the simple slave you were before.

And in response to your comment, as Eric clearly posted early in this thread, it doesn't really matter what you are expert of. The fact that you can put "Expert" at the end of your name is really all anyone cares about. So you'll forgive me, I hope, if I don't really consider this an attiquite upgrade for 100 posts.
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on September 12, 2003, 04:59:57 PM
I think you only had to get 40 posts to move to that level. At most it was 50. So there
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles

And the word is 'adequate'.
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: Mistress of Darkness on September 12, 2003, 06:50:22 PM
50 posts (probably 40--you're right) to get from Level 6 (Expert Camel Poo Shoveler) to Level 7 (Camel Poo Supervisor) and 50 post from Level 7 to Level 8 (current)

So 90. but 100 is that number rounded to the nearest 25.

Thanks Entropy. I may have a BA in English, but it doesn't mean I can spell.

Did you? Did you huh???
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: Mistress of Darkness on September 12, 2003, 08:01:01 PM
Well, there is that . . . but the point I was trying to make is that going from Expert Camel Poo Shoveler to Camel Poo Expert in 90-100 posts is not much of an advancement.

That and I'm dreadfully afraid that dispite my tearful begging at the beginning of this thread, someone has changed all of the titles for Martial Art Student to something involving Camel Poo.

And if you think I'm paranoid, you're right. But I have an excuse. I've been "Camel Poo" something since level 4, and that's over half of my existance.

I saw an elephant poop once, in a zoo.  Man, those things must have colons the size of minivans.  She'll probably have to spend three or four levels with the elephants just to take it all in.  Or absorb it all.  Or immerse herself in the subject.  Or whatever.   ;D

Just so you know--I didn't change MoD's classes at all through this.  She was destined to be stuck with camel poo that long from the beginning.

There is, however, still the "Student of Annyoing the Admin" class that we made.  No one can choose it, but we can assign it to people at will if we wish.  It was an amusing idea we've never made use of...

You know, looking over the posts these last few minutes, I noticed something a bit interesting.  It seems that we have an inordinant number of Studens of Divinity and Students of Nature.  Also, Student of Martial Arts is popular.

The other classes feel a bit under-represented.
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: Lieutenant Kije on September 16, 2003, 12:10:13 PM
I think it has to do with the name.  "Student of Divinity" sounds much more compelling than "Student of Neutral Magic."  The latter sounds like you can't get your spell in gear.  The former makes you sound like an aspiring god.

If you like teasing MoD, you're in the wrong AORP group. Carl's sole purpose in life is to annoy Natira and Brenna.

As for fighting, I think we could arrange a pit fight between SE and Spriggan, moderated by me. The rules are simple--you post your tactics, and I put them into our top secret MMMORPGF Defenestrator to determine who wins.

Actually, you BE a 3-headed monkey. So if you have a nephew or niece, then yes, you are an uncle.

Speak like a Pirate day's over, so let's review the facts:

god-king was not a self given title. It was self proposed, but then I gained supporters and was awarded the title (by an admin, no less). Therefore, it does outrank cap'n.
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: EUOL on September 20, 2003, 09:05:34 PM
I'm going to have to agree with SE--God King does rank capt'n.  Of course, Fell could have just given himself 'Super God King,' but he didn't, so for a while SE ranked him.

But...

BING!

Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: Mad Dr Jeffe on September 21, 2003, 02:49:59 AM
God King may indeed outrank captain off ship but on, no way. I heard a great story once about an admiral in the navy who was a pilot, he was flying out to a carrier as a passenger one day and came up and demanded that he fly the helicopter. The pilot in no uncertain terms told him to sit down and stay out of the way (it was a bit bumpy) when the admiral tried to court martial the pilot later the navy found in the pilots favor explaining that when a chief pilot is flying, no one on board can order him to do anything if he feels its unsafe, or it goes against his better judgement. The pilot in a sense was the captain of the vessel. The same ruling had been made for Bosuns mates when they were skippering small boats in the past and is in fact navel tradition.
Title: Re: These Stupid Titles
Post by: The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers on September 21, 2003, 04:26:36 PM
There are two problems with that:
Pirates are not part of a formal national navy as such. Not even privateers are (they're PRIVATEers, not FEDERALeers) so governmental command chain doesn't necessarily apply

2) I was GOD-king. You think I can't change the weather?

I love dirt. Especially when it gets in the crack of my butt. And sometimes my fingers.

Post by: JP Dogberry on September 28, 2003, 07:07:23 AM
I discovered while very drunk last night that if you put your hands above a flame to get the soot on them and look cool, it takes quite a long time to get it out from under your fingernails. I'd advise not trying it.

Being called a monocausationalist is the worst insult that a historian can recieve (according to one of my professors).  It means that you attribute an event to a single cause.  For example, if you said that the Great Depression was a result of people buying on margin, or if you said that Germany invaded France to get revenge for WWI.

You can figure out you name most of the time using the simple Student of Nature formula:

Oh, and sometimes throw in a "lesser" or a "greater."

Treehugger, greenwalker, plantspeaker, barkeater, etc.
