I feel so terrible. I've had two short bans early in my Bungie.net life and it seems that they have scared my chances of ever being higher than a Honorable Member. It did not use to phase me, but it's been so long since a rank-up I'm starting to think that it's never going to happen. Does anybody have a situation similar to mine that worked out? I just feel that I need a bit of a pick me up.

No, no, no. The very fact your an honorable member shows that any effect a ban would give you has likely subsided. You just aren't active enough.
Over the summer I was extremely active. I posted like 40 posts per day, which I kept at that rate for about 3 weeks. Got a one week ban, and went from Honorable to Member. Continued posting after that week was up, went back up to Honorable after 3 posts (because my PPD was so freaking high). I later received a 3 day ban, which put me down but I came back shortly and have been clean ever since. I might have that order of bans mixed up but they resulted the same.

Also, I'm going to link back to my most recent theory, as it seems people overlooked it, and I want some feedback on it. Linky
I read it. The problem is that almost every theory to this system is plausible, since hard proof will never be obtained. So there is not much room for factual disagreement, and opinionated disagreement tends to offend people.

One thing that I will mention though is that I am pretty sure that the Veteran prefix requires 4, not 3, years at the minimum. =P

I was a normal member for a year, and then honorable for another year. I just got heroic yesterday, don't give up! You will get a higher title sooner or later.

I just found the 3 day ban was 3 months ago, so I guess that's an other 3 months until heroic.

That's not possible. The Honorable Prefix takes an ~1 year absence of bans to obtain. If you were banned for 3 days, as soon as that ban ended, you would have to stay unbanned for about a year to get Honorable again.

I am a sage of Halo, the inner workings of Bungie are not my domain.

Didn't Halo make Bungie?

In a way, yes.

And this thread is very insightful. Thanks for posting it.

Funny.

I always thought it was the other way around.
Silly me.

Well I guess I better put some pants on.

By the way, I don't post every day any more, and most of my posts are in just one private group.

Posts in private groups count. I also wondered if a ban in a group can affect your status. Hhmmm.

Yup, and when you reach 5 and 6 years you will gain the Senior and Elder prefix respectively. Well, unless you gain the Exalted prefix before then, but that's unlikely.
