Is there anyway to anticipate what Prefix/Title you can achieve given your recent posts?

I'm a bit curious if I meet the expectations of an Intrepid Member.
I received the Intrepid prefix when I had a PPD of 8.33 and was logging in everyday. I believe the number to be lower then 8 though because my PPD has been dropping these last few days and I still am retaining the prefix.
As I said earlier, activity seems to be the prefixes that just can't be lost.

I haven't posted on the main forums in five days (before this post), and haven't logged on for almost as long. Also, I've done things like this recently.

I have retained my Legendary title the entire time.

I've heard stories of people losing their titles because of not posting on the main forums for one day, so I'm wondering why I didn't lose my title. Does this mean that I'm pretty well secured into the Legendary spot and have quite a bit of "trust points", or does the system give some leeway when it comes to being inactive for a short period of time after very long periods of activity?

This is a reasonable question DozerandDaisy. But as the Forum Mods. will say, they can only give you an explanation of because. They have no clue of what happeneds. Only the Bungie.net web team knows how the system works.
I don't expect an answer that confidently explains exactly why. I'm looking for theories and speculation.

Indeed, everyone who regularly posts here is looking for theories and speculation that could work towards figuring out the next part of this title system.

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?

*checks OP*

Yep, there are quite a few speculations and theories including one of mine. Some are quite interesting actually. Check those out.

Ive read most of those..I think even yours Recoil. Im certain though there is quite a lot more we do not know...

Of course, take mine for example. I compiled pieces of other theories and clues into my own theory. Though I agree my theory is probably missing quite a bit of info or even completely incorrect, we simply don't know enough. We have a few vague statements from Administrators but thats it.

Yes, though your theory in particular has become a commonly accepted theory in that everyone these days mentions trust points in relation to their titles fluctuating. I would agree though that most of the current theories may have pieces missing from it.

I also think that in time someone may redress some of these theories.

Im also sure though that soon someone will begin to notice a new trend or something like that and begin to develop a new theory...to add to all the current ones.

I've noticed how some people have ODST, and other titles as such. How do you get those kinds and not just noble or that stuff?

ODST, Im afraid I havent seen anyone with a title like that...sure it isn't just coup?

Makes sense.

I don't always post several times a day.
I usually just login to see what the news is, or check my stats or what have you.

I'm a bit of a lurker on here.

As am I. I made a thread about it. I'm too lazy to link :P

I can't help it. Your mom makes such a big breakfast when we wake up every morning.

I haven't checked up on this thread in forever, there's a bunch of new stuff found out about the timing and such concerning the prefixes since I've looked at the thread. I just turned 2 in Bungie years a couple of days ago and sure enough got that Noble prefix, I probably don't post near enough to go up to Heroic or anything, I think my PPD is like .7 or something minuscule like that. I've never been warned or banned so I'm curious how much activity it would take to move up to Heroic.

Just steady activity over time should get that Heroic.

I just saw a green monkey nut shot a small tan lizard(?) in a gunny sack.

Here's a question: is there priority placed on creating threads, as opposed to just posting in them, in regards to 'activity'?

  • 03.25.2010 9:48 AM PDT

Been here 5 years+ and I am (currently) a heroic member. :D

I am just testing to see if the posts I make today are enough to bump me up to Legendary again. Doubt it.

That sucks but you haven't been here too long. I didn't get Noble and Heroic until '10

Good luck with that request. A color bar or text does not get you a cheeseburger, or does it? And that my community members, is all that matters.

I don't really care, I just posted that because it seems to refute the idea that prefixes based on activity cannot be lost.

If you didn't "really care" then why did you post in the first place?

...to show the person I quoted that they were misinformed? If someone says something that I know is incorrect then I will tell them, why shouldn't I try to help someone by adding to their knowledge? You're reading too far into this.

Yeah? Gimme tertles.

I read alot of posts and look at bungie.net most weekdays, but I only post in forums when I feel I've got something worth saying (this being an exception ;p).

I've been a bnet user since 2003 yet I'm only a Legendary Member. I'm assuming this is because I don't post, create threads etc enough?
