We get this question a lot so I thought I'd post an FAQ about it.

Q) What is the phrase under my username:
A) This is a user "Title"

Q) How do I change / get a new title?
A) There are 3 ways to get a new title:

1) Automatically: The forum keeps track of the number of Trophy Points you have and will give you a title. Here are the "ranks"

You will move:

  • New egg: 0
  • Just Hatched:10
  • Out of the brooder: 20
  • Chillin with my peeps: 50
  • Overrun with chickens: 250
  • Chicken Obsessed: 400
  • Addict: 500
  • Flock Master: 600

2) From BYC Staff: Once in a while our staff will bestow a title to a member based on something fun that they know about the member. This is done randomly and is not done upon request (members that don't like a title a moderator have given them in fun can request to have it changed back to the default... but we don't think this has ever happened).

3) Premium Feather Members - Yes, membership has its benefits.

One of the perks of being a PFM is the ability for members to request a custom title. We've had some members buy a PFM as a gift for their friends just so they can give that friend a new title of their choosing.

If you have any other questions about Member Titles, please ask them here.

Sooooo. . . .at the rate I'm going, I'll be "overrun with chickens" before I even get chickens.

I think the BYC addict designation needs to happen a lot sooner. BYC is waaaaaaay more addictive than it appears, and there should be more warnings than just a puny little notice on the front page. Smokers get more warning than that, and tobacco isn't nearly as bad as this web site.

Wow, it clearly shows what an addiction this site can cause LOL!! Is there a threshold you have to pass before they make you a mod? Does Nifty scan the forum for people that post over 15 a day and ask them to "come to the dark side" because they've demonstrated their allegiance? LOL

Seriously though, good for you! I hope that EVERYONE still has the same passion for this forum 2 years from now. I am sure that I will. I have scoured the internet, and THIS is the most interactive site out there - - - for the average fan. Pretty much everything else caters to special individual groups.
