In a way you made one of my points, and I agree that I have seen good serious topics turned frivolous, but doesn't that speak to the insignificance of the title issue?
People that steer topics off course or who don't contribute in the way that you are looking for will continue to do so, regardless of whether they have a title next to their name.
I would think that rather than resisting the new board you would welcome it...on the new board you will have an "ignore" feature to filter out people who contribute things you don't care to read.
