    Question What are the "nicknames" under the usernames in posts?

    I am wondering what these "nicknames" are under a username in a post. Mine just changed from Tokie Owens to Blind Shooter. I am assuming it changes depending on how many posts you have or how much activity you have... Just wonder what each means and at what point they change. I hope this was an ok place to ask this question. I apologize in advance if this should have been put elsewhere.

    Thanks!!!

    Greg

    Generally speaking, they are a name given to a level in the post count. Other times they are names given to members by Admins to represent certain characteristics.

    You are correct as you participate on the site the user title changes

    The Standard User Titles and posts amounts are as follows

    Tokie Owens 0
    Blind Shooter 31
    Fever Hunter 100
    Sandwich Shooter 250
    Eye Shooter 500
    Kungishi 1000
    Pachi Puro 2000+

    You may notice custom user titles as well,

    the tradition for the Custom Titles is when a member has done something lets say that sticks out in a good or bad way, this is recognized with a custom user title.

    it should be noted that custom user titles are not given out because someone asked for a particular title they are not on request

    Well Sid wasn't always the boss... but he turned out to be a pretty darn good one. (Brown-nosing not intended!)

    Well Dawn i didnt ask for the title it was bestowed upon me.

    Shortly after i exclaimed in the then contest thread to Tulsa i believe " youre trying to make us look like Captain Weirdo and his sidekick Stuey"

    it was the birth of 2 user titles and a revolution

    Sounds like 'you asked for it' to me... one way or another.

    For all the new members out there... we have a pretty interesting history here. Lots of great PachiTalking, lots of silly fun... and yes, even a revolution. It has bonded us in a way that I think is rare for an internet forum. If you ever care to... search some of the old threads with tags like revolution, contest thread, blue hat, etc. and have yourself an enjoying read.

    I have a real warped sense of humor so I guess it's a good thing we can't change that title on our own. This is a family friendly site after all...
