Official Capacity at TPF

On the grounds that SushiNorth wants to be known officially as 'NYC Tasting Coordinator', I think that any member can assign themselves a Title at TPF. I'm sure that Al B could comfortably be 'Official Scribe'; jdaw1 could be 'Administrator in Charge of Corrections'; RonnieRoots 'Chief Executive of Middle East Operations'. But it is up to them to come up with their official title. Sushi can offer an alternative to his other official capacity.

I will be 'Director of Chaos' but reserve the right to change that at the beat of a butterfly's wing.

Please post your preferred title here.

KillerB - Director of Chaos
g-man - Official Searcher of G-Spot and Port Emperor
jdaw1 - Admin
AHB - Keeper of the Records, Vizier of Vesuvio and Port Czar
Glenn E. - Wood Aged Port Advocate

Can I be the Official Searcher of the port forum's G-spot?

I think that titles should be subject to approval. We would not wish to give a disreputable appearance online by permitting spammers; nor should same be permitted offline. Admin (aka, His Holiness Brigadier General Professor Sir Julian Wiseman).

While Official Scribe would be perfectly reasonable, I would prefer the formal title of "Keeper of the Records".

Or, alternatively, "Vizier of Vesuvio" or in a wider context, can I be the first to bagsie the title of "Port Czar"

I think my title should reflect my bias toward wood-aged Ports. Suggestions?

Given the term "wood" can have different connotations in the USA I would suggest great care in asking Brits for help in choosing such a title!

Oh I know... I thought it would be amusing to see what was suggested. ;)

I was thinking something along the lines of Wood Aged Port Advocate.

I did consider that as Director of Chaos I could become Lord Mandelbrot but I wouldn't want to get confused with that other fella.

This sounds great. But it could also be "Believer in Fata Morganas" or "Roepende in de Woestijn".
