Introducing Personal Titles

Previously you may have seen a couple of us (mostly the developers plus some staff that don’t listen to rules) have a secondary piece of flair, in blue, attached to our name. We’ve decided to open this functionality up to everyone so that you can now all yaypost on your profile. Staff secondary roles (that is, the original intention for the blue flair) have been shifted to yellow and have been reduced to Site Developer/System Administrator.
 
On the “about me” section of your profile, you’ll see a new box labelled “personal title”. Write whatever you like, up to 24 characters (including emojis for those of you who wish to watch the world burn). Standard rules apply to the flair just as they apply to posts and comments.
 
Impersonation of staff roles or otherwise wording your title to appear as a staff member (even “as a joke”) will be met with The Smiling Pony affecting your ability to access the site. Trying to break outside of the bounds of what is considered decent usage will be met with me affecting your ability to access the site. Which is more worrying depends on the beholder.
 
Ensuring that credit is given where due, shoutout to Joey who drove the implementation of this.
 
Edit: This feature was a mistake and I regret rolling it out.

Awesome! Thank y’all for doing this lads!

Huh, neat.

GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASP
 
_^yay

whats happening?

Nice.

Hooray!

Sweet.
 
Should have fun with that later.

Heck yeah!

Alright you guys, let’s try to keep this feature. The Derpi staff has blessed us with this yayposying power.

Yay

I look forward to moderating people abusing this and seeing them claim to be ‘threatened’ by being moderated. :]

Woah, this is neat. Time to spend unnecessarily long amounts of time trying (and failing) to think of something clever to put as my title.

I sure am making the most of this
 
But thanks to Joey! This is really cool.

They may be mean, but they’ll certainly never be green.

@Binkyt11

Fun times.

@LightningBolt  
They may be blue, but they never become green.

I think anything with mod or moderator in it isn’t allowed.

Well I can now make it clear I see you all as test subjects. :D

Bretty gud
