That should be taken off the FAQ then unless Geoff or whoever is willing to modify the title when a person reaches that level. For example, I think jackskeleton is close to Godfather status so it would only be fair to modify his title if that is what he wants.

Doesn't matter to me since I'll never reach that plateau or even care what my title is.

The FAQ isn't some legal document where somebody was falsely promised something.

And I highly doubt Jack gives a shit whether his title is changed. Although he might like being called Godfather.

Yeah, it just seems stupid to have that listed if there isn't really such a title once you reach that level. I think a bigger concern would be if someone posted 100,000 times just to become a God on an internet forum. A conversation with a friend would probably go along the lines of...

"So, guess what"
"What?"
"Guess who became a DVDTALK God"
"A what?"
"I'm a member at DVDTALK and have posted 100,000 times and now have the title DVDTALK God"
"I'll see you later"

They replied to one of my threads.

So someone posted 50,000 posts as a "test" and didn't get the title of "Godfather"?

That must've been one long test.

It should still be removed from the FAQ if it's untrue.

Hey Everybuddy!

I might be actually going to live with the Lord today (I hear "The Peace Train" has a stop at every hospital), & if it's time for me to stay with Him, after I get settled in I'll ask Him what it took to get that rank, and I'll ghost-write Treesa, and she'll deliver the message through her DVD Talk member account.

That Otter Formally known as THEEK!

I dont think jack hit 50k yet.. but he should be really really close.. so I guess we can wait and see what happens

Ive got a custom title.. so it doesnt show
but when i reached 50k, nothing changed automatically
it might be a little while before i hit 100k but we'll see what happens then. (I assume my term in office will be over by then )

I'll take back what I wrote. I saw that a member "habers" had the user title of DVD Talk God and I assumed that he had 100,000 posts.

I don't know the story of how he got the user title since he has less than 2,000 posts.
