Subject: FAQ on Bungie.net Member Titles

There are two groups of people in the world - those that hope, and those that wish. The first group hopes that nothing bad will happen. The second group wishes that they are there when it does. Which one are you?

your account is yet another one with about 4 years of activity. since you have the title and fewer than 40 pages of total posts, i suspect that you have not been punished much.

the more often that i see the activity of legendary members, the titles seem to look more and more like 'time and title' privileges provided by so many companies.


Actually, I don't recall ever being "punished". As for the low post count, you know what they say - brevity is the soul of wit...

...and lingerie.

Nevertheless, I am still here.

Yeah, you told me that you got it for writing the Flintstone's Vitamins theme song. So is that not correct?

Taxes do nothing to affect the share of wealth, since taxes are only applied to income.

So that's not even a part of the conversation at all, so it's pointless talking about it....

"for a "best" moral to exist, there must exist the "best" moral base. If the base of morality varies from location to location, culture to culture...then there can't be an absolute moral..

i did not mean to imply that you had been punished at all. when achronos started talking about a trust system months ago, i suspected that they would have no way to set up a formula that could account for the qualitative content of posts (in particular or over the life of a user's account), and that any sort of rating system would boil down to a formula that contains length of bnet membership, number of documented rules violations, and maybe volume of posts.

i still know next to nothing about the title system, but it looks like it involves little or nothing more that length of membership and number of infractions.

ya time is 100% a factor, but if we all put our heads and together and back it up with evidence, I almost bet we can figure most of this system out.
Also if we ever manage to discover a lot of it, I ask nobody to spread it over Bnet because then it would turn into a rank boosting competition.

The point is that we don't ever figure out what is behind it. We know the basics, and though curiosity may get the best of us at times, we'll never figure out the entire system. Achronos did that on purpose.

So, basically, don't even try to figure it out. Just be a good boy, and when Bungie takes over the world you might have a place in the established regime.

Speaking of the Turtle...is he going to be taking over while Achronos is on his "vacation" in February? Or is Achronos taking a laptop to some tropical island and bannin' foos from the beach?

Its interesting that he gained the rank heroic member so quickly which leads me to believe there is some sort of input by moderators.

Heh that is what I was thinking. You seem to be a good member though so perhaps your trust rating will begin to rise quicker than most due to you being here a long time.

Good point. I did receive a warning from a certain mod about a year ago though...

Apparently Achronos has a rep system that only a select few can see.

So quickly? Duardo's been a member since September of 2004. I've played with him as well, so I can vouche for his Heroicness.



I've also played Halo with him too.

There is a reason why he's called "atomic weggie." :)
