Feel free to change 'em around per week.
That's what I might be doing.

Is it possible to change the "favorite" text to "currently gushing over" if that be the case?

How not to be a dark lord: the answer to that is a terribly interesting answer that involves an almost Jedi-like adherence to keeping oneself under control and finding ways to be true to yourself in a way that doesn't encourage the worst parts of you to become dangerously exaggerated and instead feeds your better nature. Also, protip: don't fuck with Alchemy or strike up any deals with ancient Japanese Shinigami gods no matter how tempting the deal or how suavely dressed the Shinigami is.

Some people are cheaters and list two games as their favorite Castlevania game.  >:(

What would you like me to change the titles to?
Just be aware that it has to make sense and not be offensive.

Right now I have "Likes" for the graphic one, and "Favorite Game" for the text one.
Let me know what you think it should be and I'll change it.

I'm totally guilty of cheating.  I will probably always like Super Castlevania IV the best out of all of 'em, but I'm currently enjoying Legacy of Darkness emulated on my PC. :D
Though I might not put "Currently gushing over", something along those lines could be cool.

Hm... if it were my forum, I'd likely make it something along "Relentlessly whipping: [insert game here]", or "Finding all the wallmeat in: [insert game here]" though that's not likely in keeping with this forum's tone.

So I'd suggest something similar, but more fitting to the forum's identity.

@Jorge

Could you add an option to not to show users Likes/Fave game?

It takes longer time for my browser to load a page because of the "Likes" Images.

Unfortunately, no I cannot.
It's probably not impossible, but I cannot implement the PHP for it right now.

You will have to wait until such an option becomes available.  Sorry.  That's kinda why I went with text at first, but the images are not large in filesize or in actual size.
Your signature, however...

I kinda find it odd that the graphic, which is the more eye-catching, has now been reserved for a game one simply "likes" or is currently enjoying. :o

Then again, from an aesthetic standpoint, it's more interesting to look at various logos than to see Super Castlevania IV's in every post, so maybe it's cool.

Just a thought... Is the text below (rather, part of) the image necessary? Most here I'm sure know what console a game's on. It gets a little absurd with SOTN since the XBLA and PSN versions are mentioned. Gonna throw in Virtual Console for the other titles? :p I just don't see it as necessary at all, but leave out the download services at least. S'what I'm thinkin'.

It's part of the graphic so it would be a lot of work for me to go back and edit it out of every logo I made (I made all of 'em)..
Plus I disagree and think it's cool.  A newcomer (I know it doesn't apply to most of you) might not know "Vampire Killer" even exists, even less that it's for a system called MSX.

Fair enough—but mentioning the PSN and XBLA ports of SOTN doesn't make much sense to me. ;)

*is THAT close to posting "Never Gonna Give You Up*

*decides against it*
