Fill it if you like. Also the tinnitus start date can be entered when registering on TT, not mandatory though.

 

Cleanly done Mr Head Honcho

 

Ha, "pitiful sufferer" - that's funny. We should start a thread asking for suggestions. "Forced Practitioner of Stoicism". "Tinnitus Insulter". "Tone Head". Maybe I should go to bed...

 

hmm.. I like 'tone head!' !

 

Markku's title; keep 'head honcho' (even tho it sounds like a cowboy & I can almost visualise him on a horse);
moderator new title... 'packing a punch';
the rest of us... 'mere mortal'.

 

hmmm... I liked my title from before!

Not kin to the mere mortal comment. I don't find it funny.... not being grouchy... just opinionated!

I don't particularly go for hierarchy titles. No one is "less" than anyone in this world in my view. Everyone has unique qualities that they contribute to humanity. I respect everyone. Not saying you are being disrespectful, just myway of expressing!

I contributed before inspecting the site for the changes. It's something I felt important to do for the continuation of the site. It is a blessing to most of us here... ones that post and those that just view.

Have fun boys....

Thanks to our fantastic moderators!! You go! High five!!

ps... I am not having a high T day! It's is not the T that prompted me to comment. Just so you know!

much love here for you all....

 

If no-one else minds then, can I be "El Presidenti"?

 

I've just been stopped posting on the other thread about title changes!!!

I still intend to say my two pennies-worth though!

I dont like 'colleague' at all. To me that applies to a work situation and reminds me of corporate companies.

I also think Markku and the others should be distinguished differently as they work for the site and control it. I liked the 'Head Honcho' and also 'Community Manager' titles. Just makes me feel like there's someone there looking after things.

Just my view

 

Hmmm...I never even noticed it said "colleague". I would prefer to something simple like "community member" and I think that board moderators should have their own title.

 

As a member of a post-soviet block, I vote "comrade"

just joking!

 

I want a badge to wear.

 

OK, OK, I'm going <grumble moan grumble>.

Last plea - if you're "Head Honcho", I want to be "Minion".

OK, I'm in the corner, you won't hear any more from me now.

 

'Manager'?, You've been promoted DD!

Didnt Markku and Jim used to be called 'Community Manager'? I thought that's what I had seen. Well, this has been a rumble in the jungle hasnt it? Proves the motto - ifs its not broken dont fix it!!
