    You can make this for PC Supporters+ if you'd like. I think it'd be cool if we could change colors/font type in our User titles to add a little more customization.

    It'd help add a little more color to the forums and give just another reason to donate. I think it'd be an excellent addition (:
     
    Currently, only admins have the power to edit usertitles like that. Mods have as a perk to be allowed to ask admins to manually edit our usertitles like that. For now, I believe it would be too tedious for the admins to do that for any user, and a security risk to let users do it themselves. Weird forum-breaking things can apparently be done with code in the wrong place.

    But there are now some contests and events in which you can win the right to a customized usertitle like this! For example the roleplaying event down in the Roleplay Corner or the Pokemon Manga Caption Contest in Pokemon General, and I thought I heard something about a competition in Video Games where you can get it as well. So any member can actually get a fancy usertitle now, if they fight for it ;)

    If you just add options like Bold, italic, underline font type and color, then I don't see how it could break the forums at all.

    As it's done now, it's using HTML. Which... you could write just about anything with. We could add the facility for us to do it ourselves but it's hassle for the admins when they can just hop into the ACP and do it anyway and honestly, while I know this is hardly a popular opinion with members, I think it's nice for mods to have a few little perks and whatnot. So I'd rather this not be open to everyone / supporters, really. We already give everyone quite a lot anyway (generous avatar and sig sizes, a good amount of PM space especially for supporters, 30-char usertitles which is more than most forums in my experience) so I think we're fine as is.

    And yeah, echoing RCHP before me - it's actually accessible for users right now (for the first time in a very long time, I might add) so it is possible for you to have them too.
