I must admit that I picked other primarily because TalkIRC (whose thread this is not) saw fit to question Pinks in a demanding manner, so I figured to join her on the Group W bench.
I do, however, have a problem with "Player-Driven" Titles. The titles are administrated by a small portion of an already heavily worked Event Team, and new ones appear to be particularly fragile in the face of reboots and glitches of the server. Making "on demand" titles available would seem to me to be a drag on ET resources to no great benefit of the community.
Player-Suggested Titles should always be an option, of course, since there are events where the ET seems to delight in giving out new tags (Atysmas is coming).
However, if the idea is to reward roleplay / forum posts with titles that would be used by those in the Forums, then I see the possibility of running a Forum section in which players nominate other players for titles that can be voted on. If a suggested title for a player reaches a certain threshold in a Poll or simple + posts then the player proudly displays that in her signature line. If negative votes accumulate, then they player is on her honor to remove it.
So, I nominate Virg for the title "The Provocative."
