A New Title is in Order.
« on: July 7, 2003, 10:56:48 PM »
Hello, this is Dar-kone, I have changed my name and my title no longer makes any sence whatsoever. If anyone has an idea for A title feel free to say it. Thank you in advance.

I vote to keep it as it is, because people will now know that 'Eshara' isn't a misspelling of 'Dar-Kone'.

How about "I am unsatisfied with my Custom Title"?

I just now noticed that Dar-kone looks something like dark-one...  I always thought your title didn't make sense before...

how about, "didn't make sense before."
When I think of heaven
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
I think of dying
Lay me down in a field of flame and heather
Render up my body into the burning heart of God in the belly of a black-winged bird
Don’t try to bleed me
Cause I’ve been here before and I deserve a little more

Well it should probably be something not tied to your acatar or name, since you have a tendency to change both.

If it was tied to your avatar though, I'd say "Damn there goes my marshmallo"  would probably fit. ;)

It's just a problem, if you look at all other title's, they are timeless. Mine = Non timeless.

Then we need something that reflects your personality and habits.
Or you could juts change your name back and save us the bother.

How about "Lord of Allusions"

No its not a misspelling  ;)  

Allusion:  

1. an implied or indirect reference
2.  the act of alluding or hinting at.

The root of allusion is allude, which is from the latin alludere or literally to play with.  

the word Ludicrous is also tied to this latin root.  

Ludicrous:

1.  amusing or laughable through obvious absurdity, incongruity, exaggeration, or eccentricity

2. meriting derisive laughter or scorn as absurdly inept, false, or foolish


So where does that get us?  The Lord of Allusions is the master of the left handed compliment.  A left handed compliment is an implied or indirect slight made to make a person seem laughable or foolish.

ex.  Gee, you hair looks different to day.  What did you do to it?  Wash it perhaps?

Yes,  I think that definitely fits.

Easy for you to say.

But then I'm happy with mine so it's not a problem.

I don't think Dar-Kone really needs a new title, because most of us remember who he is, and his old name, so there's no real problem.

But in future it would probably work better if titles didn't have to do with names or avatars, since people occasionally change them, like with dar-kone.

Yes, but half the fun is coming up with new names.  And since the other thread has died.....

Mine's only timeless because I am timeless, and so is my name and avatar. Well... as far as I can tell.

Yeah, I can't switch my avatars to something non creepy that much any more. Not that my stuff ever was but still. I liked the avatar I had on my forum for a while. It kicked more ass then littering.

How about "Last Champion of Malal" or something like that, seeing you are the last and only Malal player on this board.
