SPARTANS! WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION?!

AOOH, AOOH, AOOH!

The system is confusing, but I like it. I'm rarely active, so I have no warnings or bans, hence the Noble prefix. That's something easy enough to understand. I'm also not active enough to be a Heroic or Legendary Member, so despite being here for two years, my activity is holding me down. A simple enough system. I wonder how long it will take to get Heroic if I start being more active.

The 10th of what? This month? Were you already an Honorable member before? And what were the length of the bans?

Yes, the 10th of this month. I had one three day ban in December? and this last one was a three day

Two bans and you're a honorable member, that doesn't make any sense at all.

Very peculiar...were you a higher rank before and did you already have honorable? It seems the system likes you.

Finally got Legendary down, but can't seem to shake off this Honorable thats been bestowed on me.
Be active for 2 years without many bans/warnings and you should gain the 'noble' prefix. ;D

Which goes along with my question. Can you loose a title without a warn or a ban? My guess is a yes due to inactivity, (yes it happened to me from Legendary that is why I must ask,) but I would appreciate a little clarification if you do not mind. -CM

Your base title is a reflection of your trust rating. It seems that the trust rating can fluctuate fairly often. Bans and warnings will decrease the trust rating, but other things do as well. Inactivity can decrease it. And somehow, the automated system has a way of measuring "trustworthiness" of your post. I figure that is the largest contributor to the trust rating, but some feel differently.

Either way, it is not uncommon for someone to loose a title, even though they received no disciplinary action.

That seems very odd then. Oh well, enjoy your new prefix.

Ok, you just entered the realm of spam. You asked this at the top of page 409, and I answered. Please don't do that again. This isn't a forum to complain in. It's for discussion.

Post a little bit more, and stay active, then you should get your account rank back.

If I don't post for a few days, mine will revert to Legendary (usually over a weekend), then back up after I post a few times from work on Monday...

Right, you are sitting on the border of legendary/mythic, and that little bit of inactivity decreases your trust rating just enough to push you over the edge.

I know for sure, i've posted a ton of things around these forums, but im still niether Intrepid, or Fabled, and i've been a member since august last year.

Recently i've been banned, but this thread says nothing about "No bans or warnings" for those 2 titles.

Have I just not posted enough, or does getting banned effect it?

No one knows. It's not a simple as giving a date. There are many factors behind your trust rating. It will take more than time to push you back up.

That seems to happen to me as well, except from Heroic to Legendary now. I went on a trip for 2 days, and came back as a Heroic Member. It's kind of annoying to see it go up and down.

You've only been here since earlier this year. That's an extremely short time. As a result, you don't have any elevated titles. Since you're talking about the two titles involving Post Count (Intrepid and Fabled), I'll put it into perspective. I've been on this account since 2008, and I just reached Fabled a month or so ago, where I've been coming onto the site most days since then, and posting. Bans do effect title, but in the cases of the two prefixes you are wondering about, it does not reset post count, and should be pretty much the same to achieve. Bans take you down to Member, then when your ban is over, it will calculate your new title based on various things. (They basically just take a big chunk of your Trust Rating out. Read the OP on trust, it will make much more sense.)

It's is going to take a lot longer than that to get either one of those prefixes. The consensus seems to be that they are based on total post count, not posts per day.

I'm fairly confident that the prefixes veteran, senior, elder, intrepid, and fabled are not attached to the trust rating, and therefore would not be affected by warnings or bans.

Im thinking about entering in that "Theme Master" thing, but I just wanted to know, if I win will I still be open to prefixes, and color bars, like:

Honorable Theme Master, or Exalted Mythic Theme Master? Can my color bar still change? Are those titles even possible?

I imagine not. If i'm correct, "Theme Master" was a title before the prefixes were added. Since it is a special title, I would assume that it is detached from the normal system. I am not certain of this, though.

Sort of like how Ninjas have an actual title underneath. I figure Theme Master would override your ordinary title.
