Yeah he's from PO which you change on your own and he assumed you had to make a request to change them here
This whole situation aside I feel like
Nominate Metal Sonic for Townsperson
is the best way to go not just because of how long he's been here without knowing how it works but also just because of how he's perceived on the site in general

Nominate Ms for "and all I got was this lousy title"?
^^
I know it'll never happen, but figured I'd suggest it

I'm pretty sure we've given titles before to people who asked for them in an oblivious way before(I think we actually removed someone's Mafia Scum that way too), so I'm pretty fine with MS's titles. I like
Townsperson

If it's going to be anything, it should be
Townsperson

Townsperson is kinda boring, though.

I mean, it's a generic title haha but that's not a very funny joke here, "Not the blue blue" or the orange titles are funnier.

MS asked for a title. We can either give him a less generic title or a more generic title? What should happen?
Hint: More generic.

What should happen is we give him an amusing title based off him asking.
Hint: Townsperson isn't it.

I didn't say it was a good execution of the joke.

I was referring to the exection.
"And all I got was this lousy title" is pretty good, but might look way too long as a title?

Perhaps the following should be his title:

for the record, I still think Orange Static or Orange in Sharp Contrast are the best options.
The situation is kind of funny not because he asked for a title, there have been dozens of people who have done that and we usually don't do anything about that. It's that he asked for a title and it was so specific and weird: The Blue Blur. Which is kind of funny on its own, but funnier still when reversed and yet makes almost as much sense.

I'd argue that we shouldn't give a title because someone asked for one on principle. If he gets a title other than Townsperson/Mafia Scum/Goon, it will trigger a wave of copycats all hoping for their own title.

what the likelihood that as a group we actually give someone a title they want if they try the same thing? we're a mob. we don't exactly work on precedent. I'd rather give titles that amuse us as a community, not use it as some sort of greater justice thing.

Not really. It would kind of lose its uniqueness after this. Sonic derped hard in not understanding how titles work which is funny.
If we are going with the Orange business, I prefer Orange in Sharp Contrast.

tbh I'm against Townsperson now that it feels like certain people are just promoting it as a way to be mean :/
