It's basically a way to tell established members from potential spambots, sockpuppets, etc.

You become a Bay Watcher by posting more, which it looks like you already have. Congratulations!

Escaped lunatics have a certain, low number of posts (<10-20, forgot where it was). Bay Watchers have more than that.

I think I checked a while back and it was less than eight.

There's also a few people with special titles for special reasons, IIRC they are: Toady One - "The Great" (as DF coder extraordinaire obviously), ThreeToe - "The Natural" (Toady's brother), and Baughn - "The Haruhiist", because he helped Toady with getting the multithreaded graphics rendering code that you use when in print mode STANDARD or higher up and running.
