What is generally the length of time for a title to return after a ban?
I know about all these negative points and such, but last time I was banned I came out and was accelerated to Heroic within a few days even though I wasn't Heroic when I was banned.
I was upped to Legendary about a month or two later.
It confused me as to how a ban affects your title "points".
Base Titles and a ban.
No one knows for sure, for a Base Title normally Members have to go back through them all again.
i.e. If a Mythic Member was banned sometimes they have to go back through Heroic, Legendary and back to Mythic, sometimes the Member can go straight back to Mythic. Its literally impossible to tell. I can give you guess though, depending on the Length of a ban you could get your title back as quick as 2 maybe 3 Months, the Longer the ban, the longer it will take.
Trust points and a ban. - My Idea/Theroy
Well obviously your 'trust points' would go down, however I think that once your ban has ended theres a sort of 'grace period'. In this 'grace period' all the 'trust points' you earn from posting and logging in are not accounted for untill a certain ammount of time - depending on how long your ban was and how active you had been after the ban.
Once that 'grace period' is over all the 'trust points' you would have earned from the 'grace period' are added to your main 'trust points' therefore some Members leap back and skip some Base Titles.
I.E. - All numbers are random
Say a Legendary Member was given a 7 Day ban. His total 'trust points' at the time where 100tp.
The ban gives takes 25tp
100tp - 25tp = 75tp
After the ban was finished the Member enters the 'grace period' which lasts for 1 month.
In that time the Member gathered 50tp.
After the 'grace period' ended his 'grace period' 'trust points' where added to his main 'trust points'.
75tp + 50tp = 125tp
The Member is back to Legendary Status.
I know that was confusing but, what are your ideas on my thoughts? Was it a lod of garbage of did some parts actually make sence. Of course it was just an idea I thought of on the spot.
