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

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.

Then you must chop down the mightiest tree in the forest with...a herring!

So... most of the things in this thread is what I expected except the whole hover to reveal custom tags, that's unexpected. Kinda cool actually.

But yeah, generally tags are given to people who post the most stupid or ridiculous comments (usually the quote and maybe a link to the quote), are made to shame people for something they posted or rarely something cool they did/posted.
 
Do something memerable, whether its cool, or very stupid..still the "coolest" thing somone has done on neogaf was become a full member in one day with 3 posts
 
Pour your blood in a stone, then get a mod to suck on it. The Gafgods will reveal your tag to them.
 
i remember when you used to be a joke character and it was super annoying

glad you decided to be a real person
You loved me and you know it. Though a page of people quoting one of my posts with the animated monkey nipple avatar did get tiresome.
I don't even remember you being a joke poster. You've been cool enough since to erase it from my memory. <3
I don't think you were even a member yet during my last ban.

Yeah, I was irritating. And dangerously unfunny. Though there was a clique then that seemed to enjoy it. I was never the most famous. Others always did it better. But that better did end up with bans. So maybe better is a misnomer.

I was never the asshole to make a joke about someone else. Most were pointed directly at me. I was the butt of most of my jokes. Since though I've became friends with some truly incredible people. Opening up on a personal level that's kind of rare for me. I'm generally very insular and quiet. But you all have gotten to see a side of me that few in the real world know exist.

It's hidden among of smattering of good natured jokes sure, but it's there in living color. Getting a tag can be a double edged sword. I get figs jokes thrown at me a lot. I usually roll with it. And play along. I have an endless supply...
 
Just challenge an mod in an online chess game; If you loose you get the most embarrassing tag ever and if you win you get an awesome tag.
 
I missed that...what's the story there?

Basically one poster was talking shit....new poster come in completely out of nowhere and rips him a new asshole in a huge post....turns out it was the guys old roommate who was tired about the guy lying about him and his ex on neogaf
 
I unintentionally stained the reputation of a known small gaming website and didn't receive one

I think they are pretty random
 
I enjoyed your sexual shenanigans Monkey Man...

We had some fun times in those Wii threads...

Yes, but I'll be honest both the avy change and the attitude change was much needed. I'd been the crass oversexed monkey for years. Across four forums. Part of it had to do with me not feeling like I could keep pace with the intelligentsia of GAF that I latched back onto an old habit.

The other is... well... attention seeking validation. I've never really made a mark anywhere. High school, college, or the years after. I was serious when I said I was a social recluse. The only time I'd talk through most of my life was when forced to. And I was a nervous wreck. Though get me alone with friends and I couldn't shut up. I was the nerd explaining exactly what parallax scrolling was and why it wasn't just a buzzword.

Then I met the internet and message boards. Starting with Xbox365 culminating in GAF. All the years of repression and I'd finally found a way to make myself heard. Being young that was mainly through random humor of a sexual nature. Since finding this form of outlet I have changed for the better. I'm not nervous about being in front of people as much. Even doing stand up comedy when drunk at a local bar. It was a trainwreck, but fun.

I look back on it and I wouldn't change much about my time here. I've had fun, met some awesome people along the way and hopefully have grown a bit.
 
No, you don't need to zuck modz dink.
But, feel free to zuck your own and send the pic to mod. If they're feeling generous, they'll bestow you with a special tag
