I realized something while looking through the WHO list today: titles aren't what they used to be when I started playing. Look through the list here and compare how many flavorful or descriptive titles there are to the ones that simply denote rank. Not that there's anything wrong with fanciful titles - hell, I've worn plenty myself - but as anyone else who remembers this game's early years can tell you, we've had some whoppers (honors Ryntha or Saga). And those used to be the norm!
Either way, stay classy, Aetolia.

I do quite like the fact that not everyone wears the title "Bloody angel of blood, Arch Duke angel, the winged bloody angel", or "Chosen soldier of Light's magnificence, Zealot, wo yu ar spe cal".
Now, I, too, fell prey to some fanciful titles, but simplicity is its own beauty.
I can say I am loving the roleplay in the Carnifex. I've done interviews, more than I care to recall, and I have to say, this one definitely sticks with me. @moirean, can see why they chose the imp as Commander.
Now, to figure out if I actually knew what I was doing when rp'ing breaking a hound.
I think my worst IRE title ever was something to the effect of "Dazzling Daisy Princess" with two last names.

DaskalosCredit Whore ExtraordinareRolling amongst piles of credits.
"Rage of the Forest, Blah Blah, the Hellfreezer" was probably my most shameful. My achaean still wears it to this day.

I'm considering offering to make prettier ones for a few credits. They wouldn't be live, like those ones, but they sure would be something attractive to have your referral link wrapped around.
Feel free to suggest design changes. Honestly, we didn't have any involvement in their layout or design, so player suggestions might help sway things in the right direction.
@Razmael I wish I could give you 105% credit for knocking this month's promotion(s) out of the PARK (Get the Baseball reference since Opening day was yesterday/Sunday? Probably not you crazy not-quite-Aussie)
Lets face it. Aetolia talked. Apparently SOMEONE listened. Lessons will be flying off the shelves. Money will be made. Everyone loves the Wheel of Fates.
A+! You said it man! Way to go! You get a prize! (literally! Spin the Wheel of Fates!)
I am very happy about the promotion, then I look at my cc and go...hmm...let's wait closer to the end of April and see where we are. But, at least I will get to spin the Wheel all month.

I applied as a server at Red Lobster. They normally do an apprenticeship program that takes a month or two to go through, depending on how eager you are. She made an exception for me since I was "so enthusiastic" and I'm starting as a server.

Love! If you know @Arbre like I know @Arbre. Shrimps are her favsies.

As for my love, I love finding reasons to play.
