I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

I wish Achronos would just give us a post count so we could know. And so I could know exactly how much time I wasted here.

It's basically the same as adding posts to our recent posts list - it'd probably cause slowness on the site.

I doubt it, I think that number is already kept by the server (like all other numbers related to the site), just not displayed.

It was removed at the beginning of the New Hotness because of people being stupid about it, not for a technical reason.

Eh, I'd assume Intrepid > Fabled, as I was averaging 1,000 a month for the first 6 months of the year. ¬_¬
By the definition, Fabled should be more, but maybe Achronos mistyped. ;-)

Bah, I can't see elmo posting less than you do, emoboy, so I'm going to go with egotism and say that Intrepid > Fabled. ;)

If Achronos posted a, well, post count, More than half the community would be going into each and every single thread to say something

Rather than spam, we'd just get mass amounts of 'oh, i agree' or 'oh, i don't agree'

I don't understand how I can be labeled a "Mythic Member." I'm a dick.
But see, you're a noble dick. And that makes all the difference.

A minor reaction is no reason to avoid doing something. Let's just not announce the new Bungie game!

Psh, Primum, for the vast majority of the time after the New Hotness, I was on here so much it was pathetic. elmo spent all his time in #moap instead of posting in The Flood's endless music threads. :P

I'll eat my hat if post count is the significant factor in the intrepid/fabled titles. It simply doesnt correlate well with perceived trust, whereas account age and ban record cleanliness both do. Far more likely to be a function of the variety of the locations of your posts and time.

By that logic, Bungie could be considered...well a bigger waste of time than it is. Titles are kind of like the servers saying, "Hey, man. Thanks for being cool with us for a bit." Not too big a deal, but nice to see.

(random yet funny signature goes here)

Sigh...directly relating a rank with a post count is the worst idea in the world. Surely Achronos knows this. I've seen plenty of great threads and forums completely ruined as a few people go through every single thread posting complete and total nonsense just to get a higher rank.

And before anyone says "our mods can handle that" or "we're mature enough to not worry about that" I strongly disagree. I don't care how quick the mods are, people will still post polite and respectful "I agree..blah blah not on topic..blah blah"

Yeah, well. *shrugs*

Most of the Fabled folk have acquired bans, as have the Intrepid lot. So, number of bans/recency of bans and how often you have posted/been active since said ban might have something to do with it. But who cares, Intrepid > Fabled. You just have to look at those who are Intrepid and you'll see that we're awesome.

Sorry Batz. <3

i don't know i like the idea of having the new labels around. In a way its bungie saying thanks for being here for us, and hands you a nice cookie and some hot chocolate; while watching you blow grunts heads into little confetti pieces.

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.
***END MESSAGE***
***JUMP ACTIVATION INITIATION START***
***TRANSPORT WHEN READY***

Yet even more arbitrary titles.

Not necessarily true. I haven't had a ban, warning, or lock of any kind for...wow a year now. There are probably other factors at work here. This might also indicate that groups of titles aren't better than others, only specific ones. For example, Intrepid and Fabled beat out Honorable but are replaced with Noble and Exalted if you qualify.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

The Bungie Web Team has authorized the following publicizing of the "prioritization" of Member Title Prefixes.

Priority Order for Title Prefixes (in order from lowest to highest)
(Priority comes into play only when a user qualifies for more than one member title)

1. Absent
2. Veteran
3. Honorable
4. Senior
5. Noble
6. Elder
7. Intrepid
8. Fabled
9. Exalted
