In Spanky's example, what would happen here is:

1) Custom title
2) Posts moved to HoS
3) Person is flamed
4) After a while, the person is never seen again
What happens if that happens to someone, and they try to get reformed? Is it possible to kick a custom title?

custom Title would be my preference.

"SPawn of Nixon" or "Budding BIll CLinton" or "Lying Sack of Shit"

Custom title sounds about right.

"Habitual Liar" would be good. For some reason I like to say habitual out loud... Habitual. He-he-hee. :)

Is sock-puppeting counted as serious lying?



*thinks of David, but his sock-puppeting isn't serious*
