Introducing Personal Titles

@Joey  
What if i use: [Love Assistant] ? <3

This feature was a mistake and I regret rolling it out.

@thatguy  
I’m under the impression you like glimmer, what with the icon, badge and now title.

@Arcaire  
It’s too late now. You’ve doomed us all.

@Holofan4life  
Enjoy your ban.
 
I hate being the bad guy, but again, we can not make this any clearer.

@Arcaire  
Fastest turnaround ever.

@LightningBolt  
If I’m not mistaken, your tag appears to exceed the 24 character limit?

@Arcaire  
Bye-bye custom titles I guess…

@Arcaire  
Well, at least you kept it to up to 24 characters only.
 
Manifestos and copypastas be damned.

@Pacific Glow  

 
 
:( It was fun… TwT

@Trixie
 
maybe

@Bolt the Super-pony  
No, it used to be 25, but now the limit is 24.

@Bolt the Super-pony  
It used to say Changes (plural) and not Change (singular). So there’s something.

Well, that tells you that people are idiots :/

@LightningBolt  
Oh, so why did the limit decrease?

@Registered Anon  
Yeah, the old custom titles thing (when it was staff-only) had no character limit, since only a few people could change them. Since it’s publicly usable now, there’s some validations on it.

@Registered Anon  
Yeah, when I made that comment it did say “Changes” making the character count 25. The switch must have happened as I made the comment lol.

Finally, I can change my name.

@Bolt the Super-pony  
There was no limit before. It was a staff thing.

@Bolt the Super-pony  
The switch happened a while ago but it is cached.
 
It was set on the server-side because it was the previous title used, then changed because it should be in line with the same rules everyone else has (that is, 24 characters maximum).

@Arcaire  
Ohhh, that explains it. Thanks.
 
So is there any reason the character limit is set at 24 characters in particular?

@Bolt the Super-pony  
To spite me.
 
I have no idea tbh. It was gonna be 30, but I guess 24 is less exploitable.

@Bolt the Super-pony  
Any lower would be insufficient. Any higher is, of course, absurd.

What if I made a flair that does not fly under the radar but still assumes some authoratative position?
 
Like if I changed it to “Guru of the Booru” or something.

@Bolt the Super-pony  
Because 23 just seems like an unusual number, and one of our developers has a phobia against numbers that are devisible by five _{^{not really}}, so we just settled on 24.
