Stat boosts with titles?

[Morningstar1337]

I don't see why people would be against the idea of changing your party bonus using a title

"Looking for SCH for Static. Keeper of Knowledge of GTFO!"

"Sophia EX clear party, must have Raid experience and Pure White title"

"Bird Farm for Zurvan. Will kick players that refuse to change from lame titles like Mammeteer"

If the deluge of asshole PFs and the community making certain titles mandatory to join isn't enough reason, titles also have an advantage over gear: They can be changed mid fight, allowing players permanent easily manipulable buffs during downtime.

Put simply at least having multiple titles purely for cosmetics allows for actual choice, making them have an effect on DPS would take that away and replace that with the illusion, and it will lead to multiple people only using the exact same title and berating others for their preference for titles (which I imagine would affect role players the most).
