Subject: Went from Heroic to Normal member?

My YouTube Channel. Just getting into the Machinima business.

Hey everyone, just want to start of saying I'm not going to get into a snit about this little thing. I recently got the title 'Heroic' member, and now I'm back to 'Member'. I am familiar with the descriptions of the trust system, and am just wondering why I'm back to this rank. As far as I know, I'm not banned, and I haven't recieved a warning. Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.

If you have received a ban warning, have been banned. Spam, or ridicule others your title will eventually be negatively effected. It can also be positively effected for good deeds...

Yup, I took this into consideration before posting this thread. I've only been banned once, and this was before I got Heroic member. I haven't recieved any warnings that I know of since then.

It IS as bad as you think and they ARE out to get you.

Some of your posts may have been declared spam by others by way of that nifty new button.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

All we know is that it is an automated system that promotes you depending on how long you have been a member, quality posts, and short on bans. I guess reports to spam count against it as well. It's just like a chapter, you lose a rank as fast as you receive it.

All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

If you're GT unlinked then that might be your problem. GT linked equals more trust from what I've heard.

Everyone was unlinkd yesterday. That didn't get people's role down.

Maybe you posted spam after the warnings and etc.

Hehe, that's the thing, I haven't had any warnings, flame wars, replies from moderators regarding what I said in a thread, or bans since then. Whatever, I can still view and post in the forums and that's what matters to me.

A computer system able to recognize Quality posts is about as real as the halo 3 rank system is flawless. In other words, its BS. Its possible to program things to record amount of posts after a user has posted etc but theres no way for a system to validate the content.

The trust system is much more than what you speak of.

Like I said, a linked Gamertag equals more trust. If it was unlinked last night and it is still unlinked that is most in likely the problem. If it is relinked and you have the same title then the system doesn't like you.

I guess the system doesn't like me then.

Yeah, I'm almost positive the rank system is tied into the report spam button because the moderators certainly wouldn't have time to go around and rate people's posts. It seems much easier that that's how it would be done, also of course taking into account warnings and bans.

Apparently it does since you are "Heroic" once again.

That's nice we are heroic again, I wonder if it was one of bungies cruel tests to see how we would react. More likely that it was the issue with linked gamer tags.

That's weird, I thought membersgot bigger as you get older. Bummer, another downside of getting old - all hope is gone now.
