What should Paradise's Special Rank Title Be? 

Post#1 » by NyCeEvO » Mon Oct 16, 2017 12:04 pm

As detailed in the most recent announcement regarding Special Ranks, Paradise is being recognized as the "Nets Board Game Thread Creator". Rather than take the default title of "Nets Board Game Thread Creator", Paradise has elected to have the Nets board come up with a custom rank for him.

Post your suggested special rank title for him here. This special rank title nomination thread will be left up for 3 days.

At the end of this period, we'll take a poll of the top suggestions left up for 4 days. Whichever suggested title receives the most votes wins. Be creative!

Thanks to NyCeEvO, Rich and jersey for continuing to help sustain the best community for Nets fans online. You guys are easily the most unbiased mods on the forum. GTs are merely a small gesture compared to the work you guys put in to keep this forum going.

Also special thanks to our resident net fans, new fans, Lin fans and newly found Russell fans. Hope we all get along and build solidarity for 2018 and beyond!

I wish I could give you 500 And-1s for this. I just started re-watching the Office again this past weekend, I forgot that Dwight was insisting on the "Assistant Regional Manager" position from the first episode.

When I saw your post I literally LOL'd in front of my desktop, clapped, and keeled over in laughter.

I/we appreciate it but you all make the job really easy. This board is already very good and (unless the Nets go back to Billy King-esque moves) I think this board's growth will be a byproduct of the Nets future success. As they get better, I expect us to be able to do more fun things on here and become a bigger and even better community.

My suggested name: Paperboy

For those who played NES/SNES, there was a game called Paperboy where you were the neighborhood paperboy and you had to throw newspapers into people's mailboxes while avoiding oncoming traffic, loose dogs that would chase you, and other obstacles. It was a dope game and one of my all-time favorites.

I'm suggesting this because 90% of the time, Paradise is the first person to deliver news about anything Nets related. He keeps us all informed about everything.

For any one who wants to reminisce or laugh at old school graphics, here's a video:

What about Nets SID?

SID or Sports Information Director is an information director that provides stats and information to the public about sports teams. It's not funny, clever, or anything of the like, but it would be a decent special rank for someone that is getting it for the reasons posted.

I got it:

Paradies, NETS GID. Game. Information. Director.
