"No Chain", did I just get collared?
Thought you cats liked making up farcical Latin sounding titles. Servus ATMO, Plus Unum Numionel, Againus Forus Acerbus? I got a good laugh out of the "No Chain".
Just for my own curiosity, who is on the committee that chooses these and how does one apply for membership?

Mine is your actual Latin, a quote from Seneca I believe.

Keeping it freshy fresh is a sometimes great notion for the idyle moderators ;)
Glad you noticed.

Re: "No Chain", did I just get collared?
I used to use another quote attributed to Seneca as my email sig:
" Il partito peggior sempre sovrasta Quando la forza alla ragion contrasta" from Monteverdi's L'Incoronazione di Poppea
Occurs at about 3:40 in here:

I used to be able to sing both Seneca and Nero (equally badly).

That castrato part tore right through my resistance to further investigation. Perhaps you could be goaded into uploading a performance of your own.
TT, you were right to follow the sage advice pertaining to giving oneself a nickname. Nevertheless, I would be willing to lend myself to the task. I'll give it some thought and post my idea here later.

Or perhaps not.
I used to think I was a second rate countertenor, then I heard Andreas Scholl and realised it was third.

Josh (I am assuming it was the tall one) enabled something that changed what it says under some of our screen names. One of the new ones is "no chain". I am a lowly "in the drops". ..just take a look under may screen name to see it.

This piqued my interest, though irrelevant NEWB status.

It looks like one more post and you move over one notch to the right hand side of the evolutionary timeline.

Re: "No Chain", did I just get collared?
This thread is about it being the middle of Winter and finally getting around to tackling OT issues of great import. Namely the polarizing subject of badges and titles rewarded upon the faithful that so confuse so many people here. At the least new and enigmatic cat references persist around e-Richie.
I was thrilled to discover I share a designation with a quite accomplished rider here who posts amazing photographic travel accounts. I do however remain lost if that is based upon post count or larger ideals.

The "jerseys too tight" hit a little close to home. Been hitting sweet spot intervals over the last week trying to fix that.

We're only 5 days into winterissimo.
