Are the titles under my user name automatically selected?

In M3 Remission.

**Mike H** · 12-02-2011, 08:55 AM

That is a title, it changes as your post count changes.

**Dennard** · 12-02-2011, 12:19 PM

There are dozens of titles based on your post count. The Mods have lost of fun with them.

**i_shaved_something** · 12-02-2011, 12:25 PM

If you're asking what does that particular title mean, I think it means because you're new with a low post count, you're likely new to DE/Straight razor shaving as well, therefore you are still in remission from your M3 days. M3 = Gillette Mach 3 razor. At least that's how I interpret it. As you post more you're title will change, in general reflecting a climb up the 'wetshaving experience' ladder...sort of.

The titles do change as your post increases, but after some time if you don't get stuck with a custom title, you'll never know what might turn up. I think that that not knowing is part of the fun.

If I'm not mistaken, I was at M3 in my third month (Month 3), but it could be a coincidence.

This should help: http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/Titles

Unfortunately, it sounds like being in remission from the M3 form of acute myelogenous leukemia.
See the following:

Mods: I truly think the moderators should get rid of this terrible title.

(No, I have no personal experience with it)

I would have to disagree. I'm a physician and I would offer most of my patients who have had M3 AML (APL) would not be offended by the title. In fact, most would be happy that a patient with APL is in remission. My guess is anyone could misinterpret any title on here to suggest something offensive, however, I don't think there is a thing wrong with the title of "In M3 Remission". Just my opinion.

Wow, I thought the Nancy Boy Nanny guy was a buzzkill.
It's obviously referring to the Bucharest subway line http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucharest_Metro_Line_M3

So am I. It's not offensive, just rather odd.

I guess it's all in how you take it.

**Bimmerman** · 12-02-2011, 08:58 PM

This is what comes to mind when I hear M3...

We like being odd. We're Shave Geeks.

You're hanging out on a website devoted to shaving, and you're just figuring out now that we're all rather odd????

+1 what he said.

Under my name there is the message, "In M3 remission". I did not enter this message/title. I don't know what it is supposed to mean and I see a couple/few other users have the same message. What does it refer to? I was assuming since the one fellows title contained the word "Bimmer" and had a pic of a BMW that it referred to the BMW M3. Any help or clues? Thanks!!
