    Can titles be centralized or at least not-automatic?

    This probably sounds silly, but I kinda like my in-game title. I prefer some of the more humorous ones like "Looks Sublime in a Subligar" or "Tarutaru Murder Suspect" or "Honorary Doctorate, Majoring in Tonberries" or one that I'm really proud of accomplishing like "Captain". I can reset those if I go to Norg or Windurst or Whitegate, but they frequently get reset all over again to something dull like "Chloris Uprooter" or "Turul Grounder" etc., for killing an NM in Abyssea.

    So could we possibly get one of the following adjustments?

    1) Make every title changer NPC capable of applying every title.
    2) Allow us to change titles ourselves.
    3) NMs won't automatically give you a new title after defeat. Maybe a prompt at defeat? Though I can see this could get annoying for people who prefer to do a lot of NM killing and don't care about titles.

    Maybe add a NPC that can store and change to your 5 favourite titles, or something? You'd be able to go to it with a title active and tell the NPC to store it in your favourites.

    The NPC should be somewhere easily accessible, like idk, Rulude gardens

    Or have your title automatically revert to one of your own choosing every idk, japanese midnight? Everytime you enter your mog house? Something like that anyway.

    Personally, I like my "Tortoise Torturer". Old school titles were generally much more amusing and clever than the new ones. That's understandable though, with the dozens and dozens of new NMs post abyssea, you'd run out of good ideas after a while.

    /applytitle [always]/new/off

    "always" : default option, anytime a title is obtained, it's applied
    "new" : title is only applied when it was not obtained previously
    "off" : new titles are not applied automatically

    Also, whenever a new title is obtained, you will see a message in your chat window:
    Kristal obtained the title "Pandemonium Queller".

    Virtuous Saint still sounds like the best... now if you could do AV once a day this idea wouldn't be needed >_>

    Is there a NPC to get back the title "Love Doctor" around?

    Been annoyed by this as well. I don't even want the titles from the Abyssea monsters.
    I'm not against them, they're fine, but once is enough, dang it!

    I used to always have "Bye-bye, Taisai", for it is more than fitting (hunted for that hat on and off for about a year, killing Taisaijin around 40 times I think. But yeah, it is pointless to change to any title if one is going to kill a NM in Abyssea any time soon.

    The option to have it switch automagically would not be bad either, but it might be too much to implement... The least they could do, I think, is make it only change once, just as it is with quests and missions. This I imagine should not be too much to ask.

    If memory serves, Yulon-Polon at Selbina (same as for Bye-bye, Taisai).

    ...or so the legend says.
