How do we get a title like AndersHoveland ''Giver of bad advice''? or like garage chemist ''chemical wizard''?
Thanks!!
I never asked for this.

Extremely good or bad behavior results in such an award by Mr. Polverone, unless I am mistaken.
Extremely bad seems to be more common and is easier to achieve.

Polverone (or any other responsible for these titles), is it possible to "nominate" someone to get a title? There are some people on the board who
really stick out (in a good way  ) which I think deserve one!

Hoveland got his title only recently, and yet his "giving of bad advice" dates waaaay back. He calmed down with his suspicious posts. I don't think he
deserves his title; compared to other users, he's pretty tame. AJKOER, on the other hand, probably deserves some kind of title "giver of bad advice"
being quite fitting for his obnoxious HClO posts.
As another user said, I will never be able to look at a bottle of bleach without thinking of AJKOER and his strange reaction mechanisms

In fact it happen to me every time I do a synthesis with OCl-
AJKOER should have a title like : Hypochlorite reaction master

Master? That misses the mark of the miss applications he often prescribes. although in a few years he may indeed be a jedi hypochlorite master...

Perhaps you should not be too critical of AJKOER, the chemistry of hypochlorite can be more complex than many chemists realise.
Nitrogen oxides and chlorine oxides can have a suprisingly wide range of reaction equilibriums.

Which is roughly my point. Misapplication is still misapplication although he does continually strive to better apply.
The solution to all life's problems are not found in a bottle of vinegared bleach
Edit: I am continually impressed by the depth of Woelen's knowledge of Cl-O-H compounds and reactions, perhaps his title should be the "Super
moderating unsung hero of Chlorine Oxides"
[Edited on 23-2-2012 by Neil]
Edit to my Edit: And the best title goes to the member who is apparently "Chief Censor in service of AGW-CPUSA Cabal"

I like the member who's title is "dush bag." It's the most fitting application.]

I think I find a more realistic title for AJKOER , Chemistry problems solver using a bottle of vinegared bleach.
Neil inspired me for this one.
I never asked for this.

I know that , but not all chemicals can be made form hypochlorite/chlorine oxide. A good exemple is his idea to make sulfuric acid with vinegar,
bleach (sodium hypochlorite) and sulfur. There is many other process that will not give a such contamined acid.

I don't think I can claim a title... I guess I will work to get one since I like the idea to have an unique title.
And for AJKOER I seriously think he deserve a title about is obsetion for hypochlorites. Now I have sequels of him, like White Yeti said, every time I
look or use a bottle of bleach I can't think of AJKOER's ideas. I think that's a good sign for a hypochlorite related title for him.
And by the way Ander title was changed lately.
I never asked for this.

Eh, it's not really a title so much as a signature.
What would mine be?
"Periodic Practitioner"?
Uh...
"Doesn't believe in compounds"?
No.
Hmm... Any ideas?

It never seems as cool if you try to force it. Just let it come to you on it's own, and it will be awesome.
