    Default Who gave me my custom title?

    I really didn't notice until a few days ago I have a title of "Howdy Sailor".

    Just wondering who gave me this title and why?

    David, I believe questioning the reasoning of the Mods is somewhat like trying to teach a pig to sing; it's a waste of your time and just makes the pig angry.

    I'm a little confused.

    I was under the impression you got title changes do to your number of posts as I saw in the B&B wiki.

    When I saw my title I asked myself the questions who did it and why?

    That's all.

    And no I done think it is a waste of my time.

    Sorry, David. My guess is that somewhere in some post you said something that amused a Mod, probably related to the title

    yup. Sometimes it's not so easy to remember when it happened.
    No worries, It's all in fun.

    So let me understand this correctly.

    So a or moderator(s)" to a forum has the tool to change my title at his discretion.

    It's more like mud wrestling with a pig - you both get dirty, but the pig enjoys it

    OK, now one question has been somewhat answered as who did it.
    That would be a moderator(s).

    As to my other question of why?
    As in "Howdy Sailor".
    Would that moderator or moderators care to enlighten me?

    Do you have an official stamped blue facillitating custom title change explanation of change release form filled out in triplicate?

    The why was also answered up here... You probably posted something silly some time ago...
