"work?"

In the Navy (any Navy)?

I thought it was all fun and games, interrupted by brief periods of boredom.

I thought it was all sodomy and the lash...maybe a different era...

@eugeneandresson: “Luminous Speedmaster Pundit.”

@M’Bob: “Penetrating Oil Perveyor” 😝 (I like mine as it’s my favorite quote from here some years ago when some guy who had no clue what he had (gramps 105.012-65) and showed movement shots with serious idiot-marks on the case back...it was his response when asked how he opened it...)

You should keep that one - it's a classic!

For myself, I'd been kicking around the byline of "Omega Qualified Watchmaker-Irritator"

I think custom titles should be given and not self awarded, there's no humour in that and IMHO it screams of the ' Me Culture '. The humour here is one of the key reasons it's a great place to hang out, let's not lose that

No need to remove the feature. Instead, put the instructions on how to self-title in a "sticky" and make it a forum requirement. No one will ever find it again. 😉

Unfortunately, the 25 character limit prohibits this 😗

Perhaps instead "Riggs to Al's Murtaugh"...

This should work for most of you:

“Annoying Newbie”

::stirthepot::

And for the rest of us "Fatuous Fogies" works a treat.

So for a $100 I can change my sub title?

I still do have one of my three Invicta watches. Two broke, so I threw them away.

I might be convinced to "grandfather" you in old boy.

By the way, what does Fatuous mean? It's not a merkin word, I just checked. 😕

I believe that was the 'fun and games' part of it (cue Village People...) 😁

Begs the question how @eugeneandresson put his in place 😗

yeah! What gives, @dsio @Trev !?

Is there a tier 3 that really means tier 1 we don’t know about?
Not to give the forgers and fakers any hints but that is one of the ways you can tell an Original OF Title from the self-given replica's. 😎
