Wait, so I could loss my Honorable title, because there can only be x amount of members with this title?

No, you cannot. Unless you got banned.

You can only loose Heroic, Legendary, and Mythic. The colored title bars.




So if I got Intrepid... I couldn't loose it?


If you get banned enough you would lose it, along with limited activity.

Only if you were banned, but I have seen a user get banned and lose his Legendary and Intrepid, but got Intrepid back after a few days. He was not extraordinarily active in that time, so I assume that you would get the activity based prefixes back after the ban "cools down."

just dropped to normal without any bans/warnings, so i would assume theres a "limit" to the number of prefixes is correct.

We assume that there can only be a set number of Heroics, Legendary, and Mythics at a time. We don't know when they increase the amount or decrease it.

Pretty sure there is no limit. There is a set trust rating needed to "rank up" according to Achronos.

I always thought there was a limit, however that limit increases when the Bnet population increases.

That was the old system; a few years ago Achronos changed the way titles work, and now your title is completely independent of everyone else's title.

Check what Achronos said in 2008:

The "base" titles haven't changed, although the criteria to get them has. The system is still updating for some of you, so it is possible that your base title will change over the next 48 hours (higher or lower). However, a big change is that once it settles, it should be much more predictable (the rating isn't relative to every other user anymore, it is a fixed scale, i.e., get X trust, get A title, get Y trust, get B title, etc.)

I agree, that guy is a genius. But isn't his little "theory" proven wrong by that quote from Achronos?

Yeah but.. I still think there must be a limit as well as what he has said.

The titles are all based on the number of people that already have them as far as I am concerned.

How would that work though? Get X trust, uh oh A title's limit is maxed out, make do with C title until a spot opens up... ?

Hmm.. its really tricky because I always thought of it as fixed percentages:
05% of B.net Population = Other
05% of B.net Population = Mythic
10% of B.net Population = Legendary
20% of B.net Population = Heroic
60% of B.net Population = Normal

Yes, that is what I have thought since I joined, it may be wrong.. it may be right but whatever it is I still think it. For now at least.

Ok so I've been active on this forum for over 5 years now, and I'm still Heroic and just got knocked down to senior in heroic cause I got a warning for posting a thread in the wrong forum by mistake. Which was probably only the second time that ever happened. Is there any insight you guys could give me as to why I'm still only Heroic?

If you didn't get that warning and increased your activity then you would have made Legendary next year.. maybe even Mythic but that warning is going to slow things down.

Yeah...I didn't think the classifieds section was around anymore and posted a classified in the communal Forum. Oh well. But yeah thanks again.

Don't worry though, I was warned in April and then got Heroic in May/June for the first time, then I also got Legendary in August/September for the first time so it may clear up in a few months.

Grease-Monkey scripts.

If not, It'd be Coup d'Bungie.
