Meiko Posted March 21, 2014 Author Posted March 21, 2014 but really, I didn't know you were a Chir. Good luck on your quest.I'm not, and it does bug me when people identify me by being related to them yet I don't associate myself with them online, since I prefer my own self-identity to be what people look at online. 2 -- Meiko - @georgebarnick LUG Ambassador and administrator at Brickipedia News reporter and database administrator at Brickset Administrator at BIONICLEsector01 DISCLAIMER: All opinions and contributions made under this account are based solely on my own personal thoughts and opinions, and in no way represent any of the above groups/entities.

Pupwa21 Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 So basicly, you want to be yourself online. Both you and I know that things tend to leak on the internet, something like this was bound to happen sooner or later. why can I change my Member title. 2 Looks like it's the end of the line for 21.

Most online LEGO communities know that Aanchir and Lyichir are my brothers, however BZPower is the only LEGO community that ever seems to care about that.

Edelgard Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 If the Staff selected me for something like this, I'd feel pretty special at first then they would rue the day that they took away the current member title of Voltex(somehow) 1 is this the end?
Sir Kohran Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) So basicly, you want to be yourself online. Both you and I know that things tend to leak on the internet, something like this was bound to happen sooner or later. why can I change my Member title. Most online LEGO communities know that Aanchir and Lyichir are my brothers, however BZPower is the only LEGO community that ever seems to care about that. Eurobricks, Brickipedia, RRU, Brickset, and many others know they're my brothers, but on all of those sites I've never seen someone identify me as "Aanchir and Lyichir's brother". I don't know how close-knit those sites are, but I think the fact that quite a lot of members on this site know and have met you three personally has made your 'brotherhood' much more apparent to them, and so the fact that you're related gets more attention here. That's what I'd put it down to. Edited March 22, 2014 by Sir Kohran 2

-Windrider- Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 Okay, so it's gotten off-topic in here. I don't know who added the title, but I asked B6 about having it removed. 2
Sumiki Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) Meiko, it seems like you're getting all up in arms about something that could have been resolved privately. I'd hardly say that BZP cares about your familiar relations any more than any other site. And I have to admit, it's actually a pretty funny member title. (I accidentally asked for my member title, and since then, I've wholeheartedly embraced it) Edited March 22, 2014 by Sumiki 11 avatar by Lady Kopaka
Popular Post Queen of Noise Posted March 22, 2014 Popular Post Posted March 22, 2014 Remember back in the day, when if someone got given a special thing that other members didn't get, they wore it as a mark of pride rather than complaining about it? 27 bring back "an cool dude"

In fairness to Meiko, he's made his reason for not liking it fairly clear. Now, I do agree with Sumiki that he would've done better to deal with it quietly via PM. Instead, by making a whole topic about the title, he's actually drawn yet more attention to his being Aanchir and Lyichir's brother. 8
