    Is there any problem with the title? Everyone here start with the Peon title.

    Your user title change to something else after you've reached certain amount of posts. But don't post around with useless posts just because you want to get rid of that title. Spend some of your time here to read the forum rules.

    Dynashox if you knew the other contexts the word Peon is used you my understand the OP's question a little more.
    For example

    IN S&M a Peon is a a submissive slave worthy of nothing but being Pee'd on and treated like an inadequate either through a submissive nature or through forced servitude. Think watersports, and I don't mean Canoeing, Kayaking, Surfing, Water Skiing or Diving.

    The words derives from Spanish and was most used by Spanish Conquistadors as a racist term against those in Mexico, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Peru who had been conquered and we're subject to abusive heirachies bent on subjucation and spreading the word "Peon" and it's usage as it evolved and was taken on by the conquered natives.

    In the English translation of the Spanish it denotes an underling and someone who is treated in a derogotary manner and who is underserving of any respect.

    In US English it was a word that was taken on as menaing to imply a person who was in debt bondage and/or indentured servitude and was therefore also not worthy in the view of the debt holders of any humanity or respect.

    It basically denotes a person is subject to indignities by so called superiors.

    The thirteenth ammendment in US law banned practices such as peonage as a way of doing things though it is still openly practiced in South America and illegally and secretly still practised in North America.

    Peonage in essence is "Involuntary Servitude"!

    Just keep making quality posts and someday you'll be a grunt, lol.

    The forum title really doesn't matter. The quality of your posts is really what's important.

    Check post 4 above and also Google it and check Wikipedia, though Wikipedia don't mention the BDSM & S&M bondage context and the water sports thing.

    Although in the context of the other user titles it is from World of Warcraft - http://www.wowwiki.com/Peon

    Don't worry, other users won't literally be allowed to pee on you
