Ok, I got to know: How does one get custom member status on GAF?

And I sent a PM to Bish. I included a pic in it. I hope that he like it.

Which category did I fall into? I did make this thread (not my original title though :( )...

Hmm, Creed? That's gotta be "something dumb" and "something incredibly funny" in combination with being a good and active member of the community, you got that tag. But didn't you have a different one before that?
 
How many people do I have to ban before I get some love?
I think it's your avatar. Nobody would dare fool around with a commissar. The risk of not only getting banned but instead ending up on the wrong side of a firing squad or artillery target practice is just too great.
 
You need 300 posts and must have been three months a member (but not approved necessarily).

I think I have an unintentional non-tag then; otherwise a mod was in a good mood (or my account is so old, I got upgraded by default?)

Fake edit: please don't demote me - it'll probably take me until 2017 to hit both criteria :(
 
It's a curse and you people should know better than to gaze into the mouth of the abyss.

Whilst I don't know the origin of yours, I always thought it was one of the cooler ones. It sounds like the start to a terrible-but-fun Michael Bay-esque action film.

I would love you now and forever for a Fuck Cancer tag. In fact this thread showed that such a tag would even be for the greater good of the board! It is known.
pls, don't hurt me for this post.
 
You get custom member status by asking nicely. It works.

Hi, NeoGAF moderators. It's me, eravulgaris. I would like a custom member status please. I want mine to say: "Member".

Be careful, just to spite you they might deliberately misspell it, so you end up with something like:

eravulgaris
Memebr
(Yesterday, 11:57 PM)

Admittedly, that would probably annoy me more.

Oh, yeah, a custom tag like that would annoy you so much. *wink wink*

Minor OCD for typographical errors. I've returned books to stores and brought copies from different publishing runs elsewhere because of typos. Didn't buy the "Revelaitons" version of Resident Evil on the 3DS because of it.

If you ever see me make one, let me know post-haste!

Yes, it's weird. :(
 
I wonder what the split is on tag fishing threads that are actually innocent/innocuous questions versus the cold, calculating variety.

This kind of thread is a little too obvious. There isn't a single mod that would fall for this
I hope

For this reason, I'd guess they're actual questions.
 
I would love mine to be " What is a man?" or hell, just "A miserable little pile of secrets."

But I can't really see it happening, I imagine it's more likely for me to get a tag that I really don't want, and that's GAF for you.
 
Who had the tag of a smiley emoticon with one eye? It turned out that they got jumped or something and poked someone's eye out? Or maybe I'm remembering it wrong. Who knows.

You're remembering it wrong. The user in question got in a fight with his Dad, and made his father lose his eye.
 
"Sup bish. You check your pm's recently? There's something in there I think you'll like...something big. I don't even want a tag for it or anyhing, lol.

Yours, Brett"

God guys it's not science.

Just be awesome and you'll get some tag or another. If you want to be known for something dumb that's easy. Just be yourselves. Just like I was me. If you want to be known for raising the standard, just be exceptional. It's really easy, but very tiring and low hanging fruit is much easier to reach.

Don't be needy though. Nobody likes that but puppies.
