Seeing "Owner" or "Founder" in someone's title

Does it bother you? Does it make you think that the person is way too egotistical and self-centered?

 

This doesn't really bother me, to be honest - if an individual wishes to use such a user title, I see no problem with them going about doing so. The only time that it will annoy me (somewhat), however, is when an administrator who is partnered with others (i.e. sharing the ownership) does this.

 

Given the choice, I'd rather not see a special mask for just the Owner/Founder. Of course who am I to tell another forum admin what they should be doing on their forum of all places. Personally, I think that staff roster or info page that lists an administrative hierarchy achieves the same purpose of clarifying who owns what. That's just me though.
