Don't worry, I'm not asking for one. Mine suits me just fine. But I wanna hear the stories behind all the custom titles on RM. What do they mean, where did they come from, etc. I'll start:

I've only had mine for a month or so, but it happened in a thread in the DH forum that eventually got locked. I had to put a n00b in his place, and said n00b decided he was a bit cooler than I, so he started mouthing off. (Or would it be "typing off"?) Fortunately, other RM users came to the rescue and backed me up against this offensive n00b. I thanked my eFriends for the support, and thus my custom title was born.

I got mine because Ridemonkey is not a creative individual.

EDIT: I guess I should add that I made fun of loco for his custom title that was sort of my doing, and RM didnt like that so he just added a bit to it and gave it to me.

your custom title was my doing assclown :evil:

As for mine, I was constantly being a jerk to a bunch of stupid n00bs, and I got the tough guy title, I was curb dropper for a while but after my N* trip it got changed back :)
Cause I'm a nice guy.

I got mine from BS making some insult after I called him some kind of idiot hick or something. The first one, bump, was from me bumping threads.

Not sure who gave me mine... or how I earned in on RM, but they know my bikes.

I tend to have odd combinations of equipment (FR wheels and fork on a light weight XC frame), and snag stuff from one bike to put on another; swap out forks, combine 2 bikes into 1 etc.... you get the picture.

Of the 6 "bikes" I have had in the 12 years of riding, only 2 were bought complete...

MISS MISSY (geek)
Some skank ho at my work was trying to call me out on something she did and I called her back out on it in front of everyone (I ain't taking the blame for something someone else does) and she cornered my boss and said, MISS MISSY over there...blah blah blah...so I came on here to bitch about it since I can't really bitch to my coworkers about it, and viola! Miss Missy it was...

...and you got the geek because you love Lord Of the Rings too much. You conveniently forgot that part.

My first title was "I'm Fine" because I used to crash a lot but I'd always get up and tell IAB and MBC or whoever that I was fun.

My current title is courtesy of IAB and it is because I puked while riding at Monkeyfest this year. ugh.

I have been wondering about your custom title. The first week I was here lurking I saw your custom title then the Michelle Dumaresque poll, and kinda wondered what kinda group I had stumbled onto. :p

I think you at least have to have over like.....500 to 800 posts in order to get a custom title, you never see people like me getting custom titles, but i don't have a lot of time to spend on here......ahh well looks like i got a long way to go till I can get 800 posts

Meh... What can I say, I am a freak. Besides, I was planning on rocking whistler in a skirt so I could get a cool custom title like Megan Black

I got mine because my old avatar was a picture of me with pudding all over my face... many people thought that it was poo, but as my custom title points out that is not the case.

I am the most newbiest of all the newbs. There are none that are more newbier than I. None is the number of newbs newer than I, and the number of those that are newbier are none.
