A llama means (usually) either a n00b or someone who just stands out and doesnt really do anything. People bad at games, particilarily shooters. being a llama isn't a good thing ;)

Because it's the default text they set the board up with.

I thought it had something to do with how many posts you've made. After a certain number (20) it went away? I may be wrong though...

No, it will not go away after a certain amount of posts Jabba.  Yes it is the defalt Abrannan.  I believe that the reason that it is that way is purely for entertainment purposes and proves that Saint actually has a sense of humor!

um...what?  
Everyone who's posted so far doesn't have it, so it DOES go away after a certain amount of posts.

Just wait till you get MY title! ;)

So...the next logical question is.... How DO you get to modify your title. I checked my profile area and did not see anything. What, I need 1000 posts!!!  ??? >:( ;D

APOLLO!  Shut up, you're wrecking it  ;)

You get his title upon your 1300th post, and you get my title on your 1325th post  ;)

Ya, it's just a mod thing.  On other boards I've been on, you can't modify 'em either, but they base those titles on something relating to the board i.e. contributing member ($$), Expertise in a certain area, length of membership, or quantity of posts specific to something.

The words "I'm a llama" is not off-limits to you changing...  It's under "Personal Text:" in your profile which can be edited by going to "Profile" right at the top of every page of the message boards.

Now if you are refering to what's known as "Custom Title:" you are indeed correct in that you cannot change that, but I have never seen one that says "I'm a llama."  99.9% just say "Full Member"

GREAT idea DrewKaree.
I think D-Hutt would work out very well . You think the mods would make a special case to change it to that for me?

I had NOTHING to do with it, lest I be deluged with requests for "dood, make me hot-sexxxer-upper".

I am merely a plonk.   ;D

The only "pull" I have is similar to danny_galaga's "girlfriends"  ;D

Back in my day (lo those many years ago) on a different forum software "I'm a llama" was the default that came with the software package, and llama was the cool kids called someone who was lame (lamer).

As long as we're beggin... I'd like to request "animal & vegetable"  under my name :)

This post is getting far to stupid.  Don't make me come in there guys.  ;)

Seriously... "I'm a llama" was made famous by Winamp (written by llamasoft)  Their forums use it as the default text as well.  Saint didn't put it in, it's the default text of the forum software.  

BYOAC:  It really whips the llama's ......

danny, wasn't the girl in the blue dress filling a specific request by me and posing for a better pic?  I could have swore I heard that somewhere, and your sister was going to have her call me.  

Whatever happened?  I've had to go back to dating the 5 cousins of your girlfriends ;)

(it SO blows it to have to explain it, but... ::) )

Those are YOUR "girlfriends", and I consider it dishonorable to steal another guy's "girlfriends", that's why I put the moves on their "cousins" and am now dating them......on and off  ;D
