We deserve to have some custom titles too.
Change "PRSI Banned" to "MacRumors Permabanned"
Now that PRSI is gone, we deserve an honorary badge for the massacre that happened, isn't that right? :p

You mean user titles?
What, you don't like the thoughtful names I arbitrarily made up over the period of 15 seconds?
Here they all are for reference, if you all want to come up with something better I'll consider it but you gotta get other users to back you up (put it to a vote).

In lieu of democracy can we try good old fashioned bribery?

Just did. @Eric's, now got an Arm, a leg and a left ear off me.Up your donation amount
Figure that's at least worth a title or three!
He'll have to drag my empty vapid emotionless blackened soul from my cold dead fingers though...

Gotta read the fine print...

Around a year ago, well, almost a year ago, when this site was first established, a former member of this site (@yaxomoxay, formerly of this parish) and I had a discussion on this very subject.
His suggestion - a little esoteric perhaps, but I adore history - was that we think about titles found in the bureaucracy and government of Republican Rome (consul, tribune, quaestor, praetor, and so on - I seem to recall that, historically, that list also included the title of dictator, which we did not discuss, but, in the interests of democracy, we can probably forego that one).
However, perhaps something a little more contemporary might be what the membership have in mind.

Doesnāt have to be in that order and I pretty much came up with most of them on the spot and in the order I thought of them, but I was inspired by the Site name. I do like the Latin names that @Scepticalscribe and @yaxomoxay came up with, but I think Ars Technica already got that one nailed.
Given the history of so many users here, I'm surprised no one is going for "troublemaker", "pot-stirrer", "agitator", "troll", etc. Kinda feels like a missed opportunity.

True, but if we are to ever get past the negative relationship with our abusive significant other (although some of us have finally been granted a divorce (and some of us are awaiting our divorce nisi), perhaps its time to think more positively!Given the history of so many users here, I'm surprised no one is going for "troublemaker", "pot-stirrer", "agitator", "troll", etc. Kinda feels like a missed opportunity.

Well, even in the oddball group, I'm the oddball with just 1 warning in 12 years. So I have no problem with positive. Even my blood type is Be Positive! 
As for the titles, my serious answer is they could be 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. for all I care. I have no horse in this particular race. I'm quite happy to throw my weight behind whatever the group wants. Or the best bribe.

So the person first managing to climb the pole gets to decide?

I'd support this list, but only if one of the levels there is swapped for "mouth breather".
