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

Thought tags were only for insanely stupid or hilariously outlandish posts like that one guy who got a broken TV delivered to him. Honestly I'm pretty sure I'd get tagged with one of the former.
 
When you subscribe for GAF GOLD there's a place where you can check if you want a customizable tag for an extra dollar/month.

Just learn to read people goddammit.

If you do something that creates a lot of work for admins and mods, you're likely to get a new tag few people want.

For what it's worth I didn't realize that was bothersome for the mods. In retrospect I kind of wish someone would have just laid out the facts and told me it was kind of a pain in the rear for the mod community rather than just immediately pulling the trigger on the troll gun. Despite how erratic my posting habits can be I do have respect for this forum and I would never intend to make things harder for you guys than it already is. So, sorry about all that I guess.
 
I confessed about my secret pull with little old ladies, and bish bestowed this gift upon me. :)

I never understood why so many people pay out $50 a month for GAF-Gold and then give themselves the most self-deprecating tags. Some people have some serious self-esteem issues on this site.

Eh.. It's cheaper that therapy. My insurance sucks. :P

I had a tag related to my employer but I didn't want the kindly mod who had updated it for me previously to keep updating it (plus in the video game industry, secrecy is golden). So now I'm just plain old Ratcliff, Jonathan A - amateur GAF member.
 
Tzzz who wants a tag anyway? Just think about it, soon there are more people with tags than without. I consider myself a glorious defender of the anti-tag movement.

Mine, because I got it so early in my GAF career, set my standard of posting for a little bit longer than I intended.

This culminated in a ban after making a very inappropriate joke in a very serious thread. The ban had the message "stop being a joke character please". After talking to Stumpy about it I decided a 60/40 serious/jokey ratio would suffice. Haven't been banned since and you all get good(ish) quality dialog and the occasional figplay. Everyone wins. Especially me... or more accurately my excitable rectum.

Even perceived negative tags can be made awesome if you know how to play the game.

His previous tag was much better.


(At least I thought it was clever.)

It's a dangerous game to play, though.

Actually, you just have to hover your mouse over your tag to reveal your hidden tag.

You mean tags? Do you really want one? Look what happened to me.
 
You have to be either really stupid or really awesome. I, of course, got mine for being really awesome.

Wait for a drunk mod thread, that's the best time.

But if you guys really want a custom tag it's quite simple. Just do something really really stupid and you'll earn your very own custom "Banned" tag.

For more information, seek your nearest Bish.
 
I got mine by registering. I think it's a loveable expression, 'hey junior', even though I am older than most here. It could also be in reference to my sex trumpet, although if that is the case I am not quite sure what to think.

Fantastic.

i remember when you used to be a joke character and it was super annoying

glad you decided to be a real person
 
You have to complete a series of quests.

First you must pilfer the lost staff of Mount Schuler.
Then you will need to collect a few brown rocks.
Then you need to fight a badass skag.
And finally you must defeat the destroyer of worlds.


Or you can be either incredibly awesome or do something totally embarrassing.
