Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

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

Yeah, I assume so...hehe

I have noticed a lot of "Noble Heroic Members" since Feb. came upon us, which I haven't seen any really before this month. Some kind of shifting occurs each month, related to ban "expiration" and number of members allocated for each title.

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

I'm guessing it's all related to bans, but the prefixes (Heroic, Legendary, Mythic) are not based on activity. I'm pretty sure that they're based off of informational posts.

It's an automated system. It can't detect how good or bad a post is. The only thing it could check perhaps is how many characters it is, but i doubt that would matter. Some rather short posts by certain members always tend to have more of a sense of intelligence and helpfulness than others. It's quite an amazing system.

I gained the 'noble' prefix in feb because my account was 2 years old and thats normally when members gain that prefix.

Edit: Probably because alot of people recieved x-boxs for christmas after halo 3 came out, i know i did and thats why i joined bungie.net.

On a slightly related topic, I had something of a theory for prefixes. I believe someone said they were an Intrepid member, got banned, and returned as a Fabled. Anyone else have this happen?

It could be that the posting he did in private groups bumped him up, but it got me thinking. I see 3 prefix groups, Honorable/Noble/Exalted - Ban related titles. Intrepid/Fabled/Absent - Activity related titles (NOT NECESSARILY PPD >:| ) and time related titles - Veteran/Senior/Elder.

What if you have "points" in each group? So you have some points in the ban related titles, and more in the post related titles. You get banned, and you are less "weighed down" by the ban related points, and go up in the activity prefixes...

I'm fairly sure I'm wrong, but I thought I'd throw it out there.
That makes sense to me. I've been watching a lot of people and their posting habits, and it seems that people have to post a ton more to get the activity related prefixes if they have a clean ban history, while people who have been previously banned don't have to post as much in order to qualify for them. I believe this is what happened to Old Papa Rich, just as an example, and you're idea of prefix points makes sense of this result, to me at least.

EDIT: Spelling fail.

There are many powers in the world, for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am. Against some I have not yet been measured. But my time is coming.

You were Noble for the longest time, then when you got warned your prefix changed to Intrepid shortly after... Perhaps signifying that "points" were taken out of your "ban history bin", allowing the "activity bin" to take priority by outweighing the others.

That may be a bad analogy for Scapegoat's theory, but that very pattern that happened to you has happened to many others. I just used you as an example. =P

Does anybody know where the date of the Legendary title cut-off is? Is it mid-year 2008?

  • 02.02.2010 6:13 PM PDT

I who walk alone in this world wrapped in the arms of the past not knowing what lies ahead of me. What am I? A soulless being to be beaten by the rage of those who hate me? Cutting my way past hopes and dreams. Sit in the window sill as I do every day and night resignations on my slate of who I am and what is left behind. Concealed in the words that chases my every thought. I who walk alone in this world…I am broken

Legendary to Heroic - what the smeg is going on?
Post more and be friendly to people help them out log in and out a lot in a single day for me i log in nine or ten times a day!
Do you think logging in and out is better than just logging in once for the whole day?
Okay i am on my 360 a lot and i do other things then just B.net but when i do have a moment or two i log into this wonderful sight nine or ten times a day some times i post other times i do not.

So you're saying that instead of the titles being in the direct priority listed in the OP, weightings may play a part. right?

I had Intrepid before.
The only two prefixes I've ever had were Intrepid and Fabled, though.

I'm November 2008, so now I guess End-08.

What if...
Instead of the trust system being in place to determine the titles...
the titles were in place to evaluate the trust system?

OK admit it: I just blew your minds.

Well, I'm also one the most active people on the forums (in my opinion), but it still may take you a month or so to reach it.
