Yeh, I know - I'm on the Vestry of our local Episcopal Church and the board of the Episcopal School, etc. I just doing get the context of the usage here.

Is he saying the discussion of how in the hell he got his custom title would be, like, totally episcopal? If so, what does this mean? Is it better than saying something is just soooooooo Presbyterian!

Or is he asking for Episcopal as his custom title?

And why not?

because you gave away the prank by publicly announcing it before it happened.

Can we go back to no avatars if you dont customize? Everyone looks the same now. The old way you know they didnt have one.

Can I just say that I hate the generic avatars? It used to be that people either had no avatar - in which case you had to read their user name - or a personal one, that helped you quickly identify the author of a post.
As it is now, you may think you know who posted something, only to have it contradict what that person usually would say, forcing you to back track only to see it was somebody else with the same avatar. Bloody annoying.
I may of course very well be the only one who thinks this, so feel free to ignore...

agree as well. they are teh lame.

Generic avatars are so...generic. Can we delete them please?

I agree about the avatars.
Once I saw a page with 5 replies in a row with the same generic avatar.

As long as generic avatars are available, many of the 100.000 users will have identical ones - leading to the current situation where they subtract from the forum experience rather than add to it.
I'm aware that many forums provide generic avatars to choose from, but that doesn't make it a good idea. The thing is, that a graphic presentation of 'who's talking' is a fast way to recognize who's who. With generic avatars it's like watching a bunch of clones talking, forcing you to check their name tag at every turn.

Finally, how's the nuking of the generic avatars comming along?

The mods have already said they would tackle this but there are much bigger/more important issues they will deal with first.
