Your mom gave my member a special title.


Dangit. That wasn't supposed to make me laugh. D:

I think everyone who deservingly deserves a special deserving title certainly deserves to deserve one. The question is, how would one go about deserving such a reward?
By being the first person who punches you in the face for making my head hurt.
*punches SS_Zag1 in the face*

Ok... now what's my "special deserving title"?

Ash's gimp?

Ok, so where's my title?

I like my face. :(

I'm curious, is Achronos ever going to give out "Veteran Member" titles, or something of the sort? Obviously I'd get one, because, you know, I'm the veteranest of the veteran members.

I think all members who have been here over a year should get the Veteran member title.

Of course I think all members should have a custom avatar too but I don't see that coming soon...

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I'm new school. Few more months til I hit 1 year.

At least you have high self-esteem. Remember, it isn't what others think about you, it is what you think about yourself that matters...

Titles are rarely given as Guardian Hunter said. Titles are earned and thats what makes them so rare. Maybe 1 out of every 1500 members actually get a title.

  • 06.07.2007 3:52 PM PDT

If you don't got it, you want it. If you got it, you want more of it. Of course if you don't know what it is, it's hard to get any in the first place.

Because the last thing you need is someone like Sawnose coming in here and giving you the title "Infinite Loser" to be displayed for all time.

I want theme master. Thats the only way to realistically get a custom avatar. I really doubt Bungie will ever let members have them.

Of course I think all members should have a custom avatar too but I don't see that coming soon...

A veteran member title sounds amazing. What would be the length of time for this? like 2-3 years? Less? More?

Except you know someone is going to wear that as a badge of honor.

I'd prefer to avoid ranking members by join date. To me, at least, that sounds eerily similar to giving names based on post count.

I never said that thing about the theme master rank. Whose messing with my post.

Yea, I guess it would be members that have been here for a while and have done stuff in forums.

Elitism- Consciousness of or pride in belonging to a select or favored group.
Personally, I don't really care much for titles. Post counters, join dates, reputation systems, special titles, having "senior members," these are all examples of elitism. In essence, elitism is competition. It's when you try to distinguish yourself from everyone else for the sake of trying to make yourself look special.

If you want to find joy in this site, then do so by making contributions, not by looking to become a "veteran member." Take a look around, get to know everyone else, invest yourself in the community, make suggestions. These are all things that anyone can do to enrich not only their own, but everyone else's experience on bungie.net. The post counter is something that has been continuously bashed everytime that it has been brought up since it was removed, because it was a means of elitism. Join dates were hidden for a reason: because they were another symbol of elitism. It doesn't matter how "legitimate" any system for choosing veteran members would be, because that system would still be based off of elitism. Some say that a system of having "veteran members" would be better, because it bases itself off of quality posts. In my opinion, such a system would be no better than the post counter. It would encourage quality posts, but it would also encourage everyone else to compete.

Do you want to be part of a community where everyone is competing for positions, or do you want to be part of a community where the sole purpose is for everyone to enjoy themselves and contribute?

Just some food for thought. I would like to keep things the way they are right now.
