After almost 12 years, it seems I managed to spam my way to the 15,000 post milestone, and the custom title that comes with it. Yay me! Now I just have to come up with a new title instead of "Insert Custom Title Here". Any suggestions? "Nereus" is from Greek mythology, the eldest son of Gaia (the Earth), a Sea God often referred to as the "Old Man of the Sea", father of the Nereids and grandfather of Achilles. I picked that name because I have an affinity with the ocean, having been a surfer for a number of decades starting at 7 years old, and it has been a large part of my life personally and even professionally for a while. I also used to sail 30-40 foot racing yachts (sailboats) competitively in my teens and early twenties, and had a lot of fun times sailing smaller catamarans etc. as well. So some ideas: Old Man of the Sea Fear Me who lives in a pineapple God of the Sea ...?

Congrat's Nereus! I'm glad you have been a part of the forums, and have been a helpful person as well. Don't let me give you any title suggestions, it will bound to be very odd. You will come up with something good.

XrayMan God of the sea?
So all these years you never wondered what the name Nereus was about? Wrote it in the op; "Nereus" is from Greek mythology, the eldest son of Gaia (the Earth), a Sea God often referred to as the "Old Man of the Sea", father of the Nereids and grandfather of Achilles. I picked that name because I have an affinity with the ocean, having been a surfer for a number of decades starting at 7 years old, and it has been a large part of my life personally and even professionally for a few years. I also used to sail 30-40 foot racing yachts (sailboats) competitively in my teens and early twenties, and had a lot of fun times sailing smaller catamarans etc. as well. So ...Nereus. I didn't really want to be titled "Old Man of the Sea" so I just went with "God of the Sea" ...or Sea God would have worked too. Also considered "who lives in a pineapple" which could be a question or a statement - Sponge Bob Square Pants reference since he lives under the sea. There were other names I considered but this is what I went with. For now...
