People not getting titles they don't want?

Yes.

titles aren't about deserving something or not. They are not awards.

This. If a title fits a particular user well enough, I believe it should be given regardless of whether or not they are considered a "positive" presence on the site.

Since everyone seems to be really slow on the uptake I'm going to make this clear the next person who comes here solely to complain about someone being nomed or to use my thread to oh so cleverly be passive aggressive towards someone is being removed. Zoraster and Izak speak words of wisdom you should all listen to them, this thread is for titling I don't care about whatever drama or ill-will you feel towards each other.

I believe Ythan meant whether people will stop discussing it, actually.

Example: LOL LET'S GIVE PARAMA A TITLE CUZ HE DOESNT WANT ONE!!!1!11!!!1

Oh. IDGI then... we always try to stop people from discussing dead titles/completely offtopic crap in TF threads. It sometimes works (usually better when the TF isn't burnt out, cf: Oman in late 2012)

Nominate Mr. Flay ->
Metatron


He regularly has to speak for mith and the War in Heaven series. Plus he's wanted a new one.

Is Metatron referenced in the games or just angels generally?

Though other recognisable angel names could work just as well or better.

I seriously read that as

To be clear Metatron is a scribe, not a herald, everywhere but in Dogma.

I know, but as Rickman says in Dogma "if it's not in a movie, it's not worth knowing."

But, still.. a high-ranking archangel and War In Heaven games, and he likes it. Not perfect, but titles can't all be perfect.

I really like it.

What do you dislike about it, do you think the core idea is good or do you have any suggestions about other ways to take it? I appreciate all feedback but feedback without context is pretty useless.
