"It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."

If you keep getting warnings/bans within a few weeks/months of each other, it's entirely possible to never obtain a base title. Usually if a user becomes really active in a private group, they will obtain some kind of prefix when the ban is over.

I've seen many people come back from from permanent bans and get the Mythic title, so it's not impossible to get even with the worst bans.

It takes much longer though, right?

Yes. I myself received a prema ban by request for my own reasons and it probably took me at least twice as long as it should've for me to get Mythic.

I don't know about that, I'd say you're way ahead of the curve for Mythic since your account is from July of '08

I guess, but I have a long ban history of about 9 or 10 bans (including my perma ban). I would assume that all of this put me behind quite a bit.

Just stay active for a while and Honorable will eventually come.

Honourable is not an activity related prefix. Someone could post only once on their one year anniversary and achieve it (where Absent Member would be replaced by Honourable Member). All honourable is, is an objective which only requires not being banned (irrelevant to how active you are on the site).

Yeah, also you just have to make sure that you post before your account gets deleted.

As do I with the perma, all ending in 2009 when I grew up. I was active in a private group during my ban and when I finally came back I treasured my time here and never went back to my stupidity.

Now, as Mythic, it is some sort of validation that my life has changed a lot in 2 or 3 years and I am a mature and functional human being.

Some, like myself, remain stupid. But it's all good.

You mean to say that titles can see into your mind...

that titles can see into your soul!

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.


Active 9/1/11, Heroic 12/25/12

I just downloaded the Bungie App on my new Android and became a Noble Member, coincidence? I don't know.

I just received another warning and yet I am still Noble. This is odd, maybe it will update on my next post (this one).

EDIT: Nope. I am confused. Is the Disembodied Soul (and a mod) trolling me?

Maybe Noble only counts in bans. Or check tomorrow. What happened that you got warned :( Play nice homie! <3

Edit. From the OP: 3. Noble - Active member of 2 years, with no bans for at least 1 year*

The OP mentions that you may keep your title depending on length/severity of the ban.

Oh, no bans, alright that explains it. Although now my Exalted is even further away and I'm even more confused about my warning this time.

-blam!- it, whatever will be will be.

  • 02.07.2012 6:33 PM PDT

lol

That was interesting. How long to legendary? I've been banned once in 08 and warned a couple years ago once.

How did you get warned? Noble may be lost, or the blue bar.

The warning was for something stupid, which I'm not going to go into, basically "Incorrect forum copping" when I told someone who posted a video in the Community forum to instead post it in The Gallery.

EDIT: I guess the moderator considered the video a Fileshare item when I thought that because it was a Youtube video it would be considered something different. Meh, my mistake again.

Soon is my guess. Unless you have some big periods of inactivity you should expect very soon. Might also depend on the length/severity of that one ban.

My bad, the first one was a warning, the second one was a 2 day ban. I was so foolish.

Oh well, I guess we all make mistakes. Sometimes it is best to rest before posting what you think is right.. imo.

Yeah, and I understand why a moderator would dislike people making mistakes like that and sending somewhere incorrect from an already incorrect place. But I'm annoyed that I took the time to explain the BBCode URL formatting to him and then get it all edited out of my post and have a warning. Whatever, it made me angry.

Izak, I think that would be pretty cool, and solve a lot of problems.
