Do you have Lukems on your list?


Lukems changes his title to much. I might add it, though, and just edit it whenever he changes his title.


Just put Lukems and then all the titles he's had under or above.


My list is based on current titles, not original titles.

Anyways, I added the Lukems to the list. He is under the title "real talk".

Yes, both Duardo and I have already updated it so it shows that "real talk" is Lukems' current title.

I'm beginning to think that there's another glitch with the titles.
Posted by: Tillekaratne
I was suddenly made a Legendary Member... I log in to Bungie.net every day and read updates and stuff, but I'm not very active in the forums... Does that count?

Are you saying that you completely skipped Heroic Member?


Im starting to think that aswell. Look at him, he has been here for 3 months and has posted 23 times. Why is he legendary?


3 months? No, he has been here for over one year. He should be a Legendary Member. He joined in March 2007.


Whoops, i didnt see the 2007 so i just assumed he had been here for three months. My bad.


Yup, I did skip Heroic (I think!), but now it seems I'm down to Heroic anyway... Weird, huh? This stuff confuses me...

I don't know why people keep saying it is a bug. Trust is calculated daily. Blacklistings and warnings aren't the only factors that affect trust. People can lose their title even if they have not been blacklisted or warned recently. It isn't a bug.

Well then what are the other factors?

The other factors are only known by the Bungie web team. I believe the reason why the web team does not want us to understand how the system fully works is because people would attempt to abuse the system if they fully understood it. Both Duardo and I are only able to explain the trust system based on our observations.

I mean no disrespect here, but if these other factors are only known to the staff/web team, how do you even know that they exist?

It would also seem odd that several people I know deranked at the same time. I doubt that we all did same things.

First off, people have lost their title, yet they have not been blacklisted or warned. Second, Achronos stated that there wasn't a glitch in the trust system. He also said that he is the only person that knows the formula, meaning that we don't really know the full part of the formula. There is more to the trust system than blacklistings, warnings, and date of account creation. If you look on this thread's original post, you will see some quotes from Achronos. I suggest you read them.

Seems to be more and more Mythic members every day. Very good research though you have spent your time well.

I suggest that you calm down, I was just stating what I thought. My point stands, and you yourself have proven it, neither you nor I know how it works. So please, stop acting like you do, and that I'm incompetent.

Um, what? I was calm. I was trying to answer your question. I was trying to explain the system with my best knowlege. I am sorry that I was trying to help you. You saw my post in the wrong way, as you thought that I was trying to show-off what I know. I don't do that. I am just here to help. You are right, I don't know everything about the trust system. But, still, I try to help. That is my purpose in this thread.

My knowlege of the trust system is based on obsevation. I actually try to help people with that knowlege. Sure, whenever I answer a question about the trust system, there are still many questions that need to be answered. My observations may or may not be correct. It is just an observation. Nothing more. The problem is, people think that I know the full tru7h to the trust system. Which I don't.

I only post my observations to help others.

Seriously, I suggest you read the original post to this thread. There are quotes from Achronos. Some of those quotes can help us understand the trust system better. But, I will say this again: IT ISN'T A GLITCH. I know because Acrhonos has stated that there wasn't a gltich or bug in the trust system. Also, after observing the profiles of new Legendary and Mythic Members, I have came to the conclusion that everything is fine. It seems normal that people are getteing a new title. Most of the new Mythic Members joined around early-mid 2005. This seems correct, because the people who gained their Mythic Member title in February 2005 had joined in mid-late 2004. There is a five-month span between February and June. It seems fine that these accounts from 2005 are becoming Mythic Members.

As for the people who lost their status? I don't know. Achronos said that only he knows how the system fully works, and he also said that trust is calculated every day. This must mean something. A Mythic Member must post less one day than another, which probably causes the account to drop down to a Legendary Member (however, I only think this can only happen if someone is on the edge, meaning that they are VERY close to losing their title. This seems common for accounts that recently receieved a higher title). Also, if someone has not posted in a LONG time, than it seems normal for an account to go down a title.

Like I said, these are just observations. Nothing more.

What's up with Skiptrace's title-bar?

Just some random searching through the Bungie.net site lead me to that. So is Skiptrace a Forum Ninja/Web Tester or is there a different story behind this?

His main profile doesn't say Web Tester, if it ever did?

He works for bungie.
He would have the title "Forum Ninja" if he is a moderator.

Strange. I was legendary yesterday, now I'm back to Herioc. I think it might be affected by your current activity and how many total members there are. Whatever.
