I'd say "Valued Member", or, "Valued Contributor" for those "special/chosen" peoples, for doing excellent work/helping in the forums.. IMHO, it should be "Valued Contributor", because that's what everone is basically doing to begin with lol. 

They ARE contributing their help, their time, their "services", their knowledge, their awesomeness, their everything really.. hahaha.. =P 

Then, maybe have "WP Support Team" to either replace the word "Moderator", and maybe use "WP Support Leaders" for the admins, and uppy ups, above the moderators.. lol! =P

but I just don't have any great ideas on those "something" titles.  I kinda like "WP Support Team"...]

I agree there, the "something" titles, I'm not too sure about, and probably would be too confusing, I dunno though.. But, the "WP Support Team" one, sounds good!

The funny thing is, we could add our own little test.  In the "Before you post" sticky, add "Want to change your title?" and a paragraph on who to contact and whatever terms there might be (membership duration?  post count?  I dunno).  That way, you KNOW the folks asking for title change are
at least interested enough to read the rules.]

That *should*, or, *just might work*..  Either way though, you'd have to mention of such "changes", to have a place to point people too, to read up about it.. 

Ya know, those that registered two minutes ago, and see the titles.. and say.. "Oh, I want a special name too!! Can I have one!?!?!"...  With things written down in the "Before Posting" thread, you would just be able to reply with a link to that thread .. rather then keep posting (explanatory type) replies to such stuff..  I dunno, just was saying lol! =P
