Ace Reporter & Den Mother

I have recently returned to these forums after a long time (suffering in AOHell, he he.)

I see that members titles now have many extra echelons. When I left, there were only Junior Member, Member and Senior Member. I understand the post-count levels of Golden, Platinum, Diamond. And the Elite Member title is apparently an honorary thing for those who are most useful to the forums.

Can some one explain "Ace Reporter" and "Den Mother"? Have we got Jimmy Olsen and June Cleaver in our midst? ;)

Thanks in advance.

Those titles are unique, NFS4 has the Ace Reporter Title and WombatWoman has the Den Mother title. To my knowledge, no one else has either of those titles.

There's also a 'Lifer' member title now...

A couple of individuals hold this title... However I have no idea how you get it... apparently it is also chosen by the mods...

He does a lot of digging for the Anandtech Web News, and they misspelled the word "ass." :)

Dunno about "Den Mother" other than people just like her.

Lifer is after 10,000 posts, if you aren't an Elite member already...

Russ needs to have his name changed to Deal Man, and JokerSmoker to Dealio Roboto.

So if I am liked by people, do I get to I be a "Den Mother?" There has got to be more to this story.

That part about misspelling the word "ass" mad no sense to me. Maybe I've just been gone too long.

Anyway, thanks for the answers, such as they were.

At least nobody flamed me for mentioning AOHell. :D

he was making a crack that ace was meant to be ass.

Honorary titles are given by the mods when they deem it neccessary. AndyHui has FAQ man, i believe, something like that. Anyways, they did it to give the boards more personality, i think. I like it:)

Anand is "The Boss" eh? Cool.

Just noticed too that Zuni's title is "AnandTech WebMaster." Very cool indeed.

(Still waiting on further information about Ace Reporter & Den Mother, if anyone knows more.)

I think WW got the title "Den Mother" because of how kind,patient and sweet she is with all the young people posting here. A title that she richly deserves as imho she's wonderful :)

Let's not forget that kami was (ever so briefly) given the custom title "Dildo Baggins."

And Paulson was "Most Improved" for a while. Now the young fellow is an "Elite" and we hardly ever get pestered by him anymore. (j/k)

The best custom titles were assigned to a bunch of troublemakers from Ars Techica. They were called "Ars Holes," "Ars Lickers," and such. Wonderful sense of humor our mods have, sometimes!
