Default Noob and Pro title tracks

After having a noob moment today, I thought of a new title track that would be very cool. This would require an addition to the interface (a new window or a new tab on the hero window).

Both these titles are given to you by other players, making it more of a peer review. There would be a window where you put in the player's name and vote to give them a noob point or a pro point. This could be for any reason, from forgetting a vital skill to helping you out in a quest for free.

There would be limits on this title. You cannot vote for yourself. You cannot vote for the same person more than once in 24 hours (if that's too long that could be shortened).

Here's my title name ideas. Add your own if you have other ideas/better ideas.

Noob Title Track
1. OMGWTF
2. Pwned
3. Spare Me Gold Plx!
4. Give Items Plx!
5. Plvl Plx Mastor!!1one

Pro Title Track
1. Pro
2. Leet
3. I'll Pwn J00
4. Out of Your League
5. Uber

/not signed, I do not enjoy the prospect of other people "judging" me, for whatever reason. 90% of the player base is immature and too unobjective in their opinion to give you a fair rating.

Don't forget the people who will go "OMG that guy has a better title than me I'm gonna downvote that loser!" about people they randomly see in districts.
Or entire guilds ganging up to vote on one guy.

Being a noob myself, I wouldn't mind the ability to wear a 'Noob' title at my own discretion. I'm all for self irony.

But having other players 'vote' them out would get annoying fast. All guildies would vote eachother up the protrack, and you'd have people getting a boner at the mere thought of standing in town tagging everyone as noobs.

This suggestion is laughable.
I think I'll plant a OMGWTF on the OP.

The point of the title is fun and humor. Besides, you wouldn't have to show the title if you didn't want to.

Getting a noob vote isn't getting a "down" vote or a bad review. It's just another point towards your maxed out title.

Horrible idea. People that don't like you for whatever reason would just rate you badly and you'd have random people just rating everyone a noob.

Since when was GW about this "fun" you speak of?
I do think this is a bad idea just as a vote system would have to be added and lots of game mechanics worked out
However i do think some of the other posters worried about being "voted down" take GW to serious, its a game who cares if some random votes you a "noob"?

only half thought out both title strings would be blatantly open to abuse
A title for the sake of a title.

Funny thing is, all the n00bs are people who think they're pro's and call other people n00bs.
