    You mean Grant actually earned the title Kilted Defender of the Rubber Chicken? I had assumed it was bestowed upon him, because of his infatuation with Rubber Chicken Sporrans... One might even comment on his uncanny ability to prove that in a previous life, Grant was the court jester.. only missing his hat and matching tights...

    Rank, honourary titles, titles by post count, titles by number of kilts... Where is the harm? When I joined this forum back in '06, I loved the idea of gaining rank based upon your involvement, such as welcoming a new member, or just letting someone know that you took the time to read their post. Titles on the Saltire... brilliant! Earned for meritorious service. The idea of this forum, in my opinion, was for fun and information. I gain my share of both when I come on here.

    I care not what your rank is when I post in a forum. I don't feel week because of my low post count. If you are polite and knowledgeable, I will take your opinion seriously. If not... so be it!

    Please bring back all the titles, and some of the fun that seems to be missing here these days!

    Cheers!
