Sorry, which point you made you are saying that is simple? I can't reply if I don't know. I can just say that I don't agree that the titles do not split the community.

phew.

I understand that. Now try to understand when I say forum titles split communities. Not all 4000 coders are mature enough to transcend this. And not all regular members are ok with this, many wanting to have a shiny title too, other than "Member". It's competitive human nature. Wouldn't you rather have everyone happy by removing titles? Wouldn't you rather create a feeling they are in the same boat? Would you rather have the "Average Joe" title or the "Coder/Designer" title? Or the "Administrator" title, even? Or write any title? Do you like your label? I don't like mine.
