Continuing the discussion from [When you started your first Discourse community, what did you find hard to do?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/when-you-started-your-first-discourse-community-what-did-you-find-hard-to-do/180684):

I still don’t understand how member titles work 😂

I think this could be massively improved by copying the design of the avatar upload dialog. Present a list of the different options you have for getting a title.

> **Choose Title**  
> Blank  
> Badge [Bug Reporter]  
> Group [team]  
> ~~[]~~ Custom (disabled text field)

Also, make it so that a custom staff-granted title sticks around as selectable even after a different title is chosen.

Yeah and primary groups as they relate to title and flair assignment have been particularly confusing (something we have to explain a lot) and I hope that group concept can go away entirely at some point soon!
