Okay guys. You may have noticed that I ditched the text ads at the top of the forums. Now the link where you could buy a text ad points instead to a new section custom titles.

For $5 you can have your very own custom title, saying anything you want (within reason).

Here's the kicker for $7 you can change ANYONE's custom title to whatever you want (within reason). Think someone's a jerk? Let the world know!

If you're interested, click the "Titles" link above or just visit
http//forum.freeipodguide.com/customtitle/

I'm using Amazon Honor System for these donations since PayPal sucks all kinds of balls.

Is there some kind of screening process that we have to do before a custom title is allowed?

Will you be able to know which person changed your title?

bballp6699

What if I want to change a mod's title. Will that cost me extra?

Great way for the site to make money...U post urs(they get money)...someone changes it(they get money)..u change it back(They get more money)) good thinkin Admin...but i dont really like that other ppl can change it (

Iloveipods2

31-10-2005 16:40:05

damm $5 for that? common........

Admin

31-10-2005 16:48:31

Okay fine. $4 and $6 sound good?

halfbreed

31-10-2005 16:48:55

I bet you'd make more money if you offered $2 to change it, and $5 to change a mods

JUNIOR6886

31-10-2005 17:17:20

i think its a bad move to charge users for making/changing custom titles...
why cant it be free? charging for Ads makes a lot more sense than charging for a custom title... its not fair (
lets have a community vote on the issue! D

goofygarber

31-10-2005 17:26:07

$4 and $6 are plenty reasonable.

lalalala

31-10-2005 17:43:04

If I paid six bucks Id want some assurance that my money was going to go to something that somebody couldnt change in five minutes...just a thought.

Wow, six bucks. Thats what, minimum wage in mexico?

Minimum wage here is $5.25.

Correction, PA is $5.15.

Washington is the highest.

Kansas is the lowest with $2.65.

Admin

31-10-2005 18:08:31

look, this is just a little idea for some extra money. i don't think anyone has a right to complain since

a) its in addition to your normal title, not instead
b) i removed the ads completely. this is now the only major ad-free freebie forum.
c) i'm charging for a feature i just added, not one you've already had. everyone's been using the forum for over a year with no title changing ability and it's been just fine. if you dont like it or need it, dont touch it.

Daggoth

Heh, buy it and give it a go =P
Its automatic, doesn't require any human interaction.

Admin

31-10-2005 18:23:48

You can change a mod's, but there's no guarantee he'll leave it like that )

thehacker010

31-10-2005 18:42:27

There should be some timer that does not allow the title to be changed back too soon after it was originally changed. Something like 24 hours.... twisted

JUNIOR6886

31-10-2005 19:20:59

Mods have already given some members custom titles for free
should those members who have custom titles now (without paying)
have their titles taken away till they pay? Should mods really have the ability to create and change titles? If a member(person A) is friends with a mod he could technically get free custom titles without paying which would make paying to change Person A's title almost useless. If only
Admin could change/make the titles i think that would be in the best interests of EVERYONE

I won't be changing anyones titles unless it's offensive or I'm told to, and that includes mine if anyone changes it. It's not really something to get pissed about it shrug

The way I see it is, if you can't laugh at yourself, you shouldn't be laughing at others.

So go ahead and change me bitches! D

He should keep that title permanently as a punishment. ;) He seems to really dislike it.

Sorry Goofy, you're funny sometimes but when you have too much fun with the word "fag," then I guess you're just screaming to be let out of the closet. I just gave you a little push.

I think it would be cool to change someone else's username for a fee too, I know of another forum that does it and it can be a $50+ fee or something.

bballp6699

31-10-2005 20:47:37

Who is that much of a nerd to blow $50 on something so dumb? I'd be honored if someone paid $50 to change my username.
