Regarding Custom Titles, I can think of many, and some will be unexpected.
a) Webcam setup (for different systems)
b) Linux Accounting Applications (FOSS type)
c) Linux CRM packages (Again, FOSS type)
d) Linux ERP packages (Again FOSS type)
e) Linux Document Management (Again FOSS type)
f) Linux use of MYSQL, POSTGRES SQL, PHP, APACHE, Virtual Machine Systems
g) And area to discuss closed source linux applications
h) Linux Programming
i) Linux Networking

The usual areas such as installation, programming, data recovery, perhaps even hardware

Also reviews of different apps.

I guess I see the linux world as being more then just following UBUNTU, FEDORA, SUSE, Mandriva, RED HAT, ORACLE LINUX, SUN etc. etc.

I think you've misunderstood the point of this thread. We're not looking for forum titles we're after member titles. Jeremy is asking for suggestions for the 5K post members, we currently have LQ Guru and Senior Member, so suggestions for an additional title are welcome.

Wait, someone didn't understand the purpose of this thread?

Not around here!

We don't have any of that around here, ever!

Has anyone suggested:

LQ Hack Magician

~or~

LQ Dev Master

To obtain the top title, a person has to contribute to LQ in some manner not solely based on the amount of posts but also wiki articles, tutorials, and reviews submissions.

Yes, I read the entire thread (else I would have posted sooner). Yes, I know the winners have already been chosen.

Semi-OT advice: Use your Ignore List (found in the left panel of Your Control Panel).

Someone who posts 5k times is obviously always online. So why not give them the appropriate title of:

"Lurker" (always lurking around)

please help! I would like to unsubscribe from this,
but the link at the bottom of the emails results in an error
to the effect that the thread id is bad.

When I go through Quick links it tells me I have 0 subscriptions.

Yet, I keep getting these emails and I'd like for them to stop.

Never mind. By going through the user control panel
I found it classified as a "new subscription" and was able to
unsubscribe there.

Likely these have been posted, but before 'guru' one may usually be referred to as a 'wizard,' and after those one is referred to as a 'god.'

GURU comes from the indian language hindi.. which means the one who has a solid knowledge in some field.
So how about "LQ Gyani" (Gyani means who knows a lot about something)
