    maybe you should pick up a subscription? EJ is on fire on some of the select threads.

      Can anyone tell me how you know who is, or isn't, a select subscriber? Obviously some of the most visible contributors, like Mega, turn out not to be subscribers.

      And, how did/do people get unique titles? ... like Master of British Brevity or Ambassador or lots more that I've noticed but can't think of at the moment.

      When someone is called "iTuliper," does that mean they aren't a subscriber? No, because Chris is both an "iTuliper" and a "Select Premium Member."

      Or perhaps this is like visiting a well-used clubhouse and asking where that lamp came from, or that fruit bowl or that quilt... did it come from a yard sale? or did a grandmother make it? ... maybe it's so long ago no one remembers where they came from.

        I got my title, high commissioner by submitting a number of artiles and posting so many replies.

        In our budget I only have so much money to spend on things like magazines etc, and a full year itulip membership is more than that.
        I can probably argue the fact that it is worth it, but we have not gone there. Anyhow the subscription is more than our budget, so I normally do one month subscriptions once a quarter. So I drift in and out of premium membership. There are really good things on the other side of the paywall. I do miss the ramblings of bart and finster.

            the select subscribers got 'iTulip Select Premium Member' in their title... er... usually. special titles like 'chief cynic' and 'the brain' earned. i've seen requests for special titles. you want one? maybe we can think of one for you if you have not?

              I got mine by asking, but also by being the only guy here who ever puts up anything about investing in farmland and the ag sector.

              I know of at least two itulip members that have visited Uruguay as a result, and one who has bought property, though I do not disclose suchpersonal information as to who they are publically.

                  Nah, give it a couple of years. I'm still learning how to navigate in the unique iTulip environment.

                  But if any of the old-timers wants to share stories about how/why someone got their handle, I'd be interested.

                    its right there in the msg/post header, next to ones 'handle'

                    eye was shocked one day to note that i had been dubbed an 'ambassador'
                    but apparently that mustve been a goof, since i was demoted shortly thereafter....

                    personally tho, i'd like the title of "adjutant chief cynic"

                      I got mine for posting a video on youtube for the much sought after ancient alchemical recipe on how to convert paper fiat into solid gold!

                      Just kidding, I got mine by being both the 9,999,999 visitor as well as the 10,000,001 on itulip.com (and proving it). There was a contest back then.
