While your star rankings will always be based on post count, once you reach 1,000 total posts we allow you to choose your own title if you'd like. Your custom title can be accessed by editing your Profile under the User Control Panel tab of the top navigation bar. Titles follow the same rules as our standard forum rules. Failure to follow the rules when adding your own custom title can lead to permanent loss of the custom title feature as well as temporary or permanent suspension from DiscussBodybuilding.com. In addition to our normal forum rules:
- Custom titles can not mock other members or mock another members custom title.
- You can not use a title higher (or lower) then your current stock title grants you. For example, if you're stock title is "Champion," you can not enter a custom title of "Master Champion." The stock titles given to members can not be used as custom titles.
- Custom titles can not include links to any websites or be used to promote a business.
- Custom titles can not include names or abreviations of other members on the forum.
- Custom titles can not contain profanity.
- Custom titles can not be left blank (by giving yourself no title at all).
