I know I'm being a fuddy duddy, but I've been finding I want to vote less this year in Superstar because I've got this long string of "star voter" tags and don't want to make my title any longer than it is. It already feels cluttery to me. (The season 9 glitch just makes it worse.)
I am also proud enough--perhaps overly, I warrant--that I'd rather just have my Top 8 tag show up without any other things next to it to distract from it (save perhaps my subscriber tag, which got eaten by my top 8 tag due to some other forum glitch).
I know many RPGSS voters are very proud of their voting accomplishments, especially those who've reached champion and marathon, and this is not intended to diss those who've put so much time into the contest and want to wear their badges proudly. I'd just personally not rather have the voter tags.
Can they be removed? (Without borking anyone else's up?)
Thanks.

Marginally related: for a strange reason I see your tags as RPG Superstar 2015 Top 8, followed by "star voter season 9" three times, instead of tags of each super star voter...

The 9s thing is a glitch in the display code, we're pushing a fix for that this afternoon. We are aware of the.... vigorously large... title issue and are debating solutions. We just have to work out internally ways we can get the length a little more constrained while still letting folks take pride in their accomplishments.

Maybe replace the text titles with little SupahStah-themed badges (like the alias faction symbols)? You could still have the text (e.g. "Dedicated Voter Season 9") listed in the IMG alt attribute, so it would display on mouseover.*
Not sure how much bandwidth those extra tiny image badges would use though (it's surprising how much it adds up with this many users).
(* I'm sure you all have already thought of this.)

Thanks for the reply, Cort.
Personally I'd love to see a counter on my profile or something that shows how often I've voted, but I don't need or want it in my title.
I love Ambrosia Slaad's idea of an icon, but also share her concerns about bandwidth on y'all's end. We already tax your servers quite a bit. That would look really cool though...
Congrats on getting the season 9 glitch fixed!
