Don't insult me because I do nothing but post. >.> My 360 is broked lol
Well, I couldn't say much. My 360 is fine.
I see that your prefix just changed, Old Papa Rich. It's interesting since I've had Noble for 11 months and I've kept it despite being considerably active, in my opinion. Perhaps yours changed to Intrepid due to your increased recent activity, or due to the fact that you were warned making it harder to "keep" the Noble prefix. Actually, the more I think about it, it's probably a combination of both of those factors...
It's actually quite simple. You only have noble because you've been here a long time. In that time you post very little and have a low PPD. You also have a low post count. He has a very high post count, which explains why he has the intrepid rank, and you don't.

Ohh yeah

So, to get to Heroic Member I have to enter to B.net all days for one year?

No, to get Heroic you need to get a certain amount of Trust points and Heroic normally takes about 6 months to a year of activity.

For 6 months you need to be active. You don't have to be on every single day, but it would help. Probably post at least once every 3 days.

I don't think it's as simple as you think it is, but that's just me. 95% of my posts are in groups, and I have been very active for quite a while now, and I know of other members who have activity based prefixes by solely posting within groups. Public forum posts aren't as special/important to one's title as most people think they are.

Also, I was merely just making a commentary on how getting warned may make it harder to keep a ban related prefix, and easier to get an activity based one. Not so much asking a question, just posting my thoughts on the matter.

This is what I was thinking. I've been here for almost 2 years but I never signed in on a regular basis until I bought my laptop about 8 months ago now. I don't think I post very much compared to most people, but I do sign in regularly. I've also joined some groups if that makes any difference.

Why am I already heroic if I just got unbanned a few days ago?

Because you don't lost everything when you're banned.

You just lose a certain amount of Trust points when you are banned and by your Fabled prefix I am guessing that you had enough Trust Points stored up when you got unbanned and posted a few times you went right to Heroic.

And it probably had to do with how long the ban was and how many times you've been banned before.

Hm, it seems as if I have picked up the Fabled prefix. I slightly increased the amount of posting in the mains and group forums. I didn't think it would be enough to pick me up a new prefix though.

This reinforces my thoughts; I'm pretty certain Fabled and Intrepid are linked to total post count, rather than activity.

I hope so. That means my chances will be better at getting the fabled prefix.

Wow. That's actually the best theory i've heard about this. It almost sounds like you work for Bungie.

I've been active for almost four years, still no mythic. Might wanna slap a four on the mythic activity amount.


Same here, its well over 4 years for me.

There are a few Mythic Members that joined in mid-2006. That's only over the three year mark. Being active in your mind probably isn't the same compared to the title-system and the other members at Bungie.net.


October 26 2005 not 2006 that's over 4 years.

Aw I'm back down to Heroic. Again it's not that I care all that much about the title... it's just way easier to find my posts in threads with a brighter bar.

I noticed a few people who were Legendary go down to Heroic in the past day or two. Some who were legendary for awhile and I don't think they got banned at all.

I hear you on the finding your own posts too. I look for my avatar and title bar combo to find my posts.

Is that so? I haven't noticed any "Legendaries" besides burrito go down. I also look for my avatar (more often than my Title) for my posts.

We believe that the universe is unbounded: this is not the same as infinite: the 2-D surface of a sphere, wrapped around a 3rd dimension, has a finite size, but has no end. If you start off in a given direction on the surface of a sphere, you could return to your start point without having to turn around -- you simply go all the way around. But wouldn't that mean the universe has an escape velocity like the earth?

Took me about 4 mths to get heroic and perhaps another 6 to get legendary, which I got only 2 days ago, but Ive been extremely active, so Trust is definitely a factor, although I wont get too technical.

When Ignorance is the problem. The Answer is Blood.
When love is absent. Hatred fills the void.

Well arent you a lucky fellow.

I think I need to start posting way more in order to regain my coolness. I liked Legendary. And before my time is done I will have it back.

Somebody showed me the Scarab Gun in Halo 2 once.
I was like WHOA DUDE, WHOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAA
Then I sorta blanked out in a red haze and when I came to, everyone was dead.

This last week I kept jumping from "Honorable Heroic Member" to "Honorable Legendary member". I think it may be because of my Posts Per Day count.

...Which is kinda why I'm posting in this thread right now...

I have been a member since 27 January, 2008. I have received no warnings or bans of any type that I know of. According to that chart up there, should my title not be Honorable Legendary Member? There may be another kink in the system I am missing, if anyone out there knows, could you please inform me?

You have to be active, where you obviously are not. That means, post often, post and participate in Public and Group Forums, use your Gamertag features (Stats, Linking Gamertags), etc.
