And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. 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.

There are currently 13 Mythics (even less if you don't count the employees like myself), about 1700 Legendaries, and about 82000 Heroics.

Only 1700 Legendaries? I thought there were a lot more of them. I mean, I'm member number 785739, so I expected the number to be much higher.

Don't seem like the join date influence the titles as much as I thought it did. On the other hand though, the low number of Mythics seems to support it. Or have a lot of old accounts expired due to inactivity?

Honestly I don't think the join date has that much to do with the members rank. Or at least, not as much as we think it does.

Example:
Pain Relief is a Legendary Member but he only joined about this time last year. I joined in 2005, I'm a regular member.

Your member number is probably not as relevant as you think it is. I imagine a significant number of acounts before you / us have been deleted due to inactivity.

Me Legendary? Gone 4 days and now back and I see some neato glitches like Mythic Members and such etc.

Thank you Bungie once again for the upgrade. Keep up the good work. And of course, if necessary, I hereby grant you permission to revoke my status for the sake of the forums and site changes.

Sorry, but it is a bug and if you weren't legendary before then you will most likely go down to heroic or member when everything is sorted out.


You got any source of reference or proof? Achronos stated a page or 2 before this page that right now, the number of Legendary Members are about 1700 which is the RIGHT amount as he stated. That post was as of TODAY too.

He only mentioned the VAST quantities of Heroics on this forum and frankly I agree. True, THIS is some form of a gltich BUT I feel we might keep our Legendary Titles anyhow due to Achronos stating the number right now is at the right amount.

No, I just thought it was odd the number of legendary's I was seeing vs. before the glitch. If Achronos says this is where it should be then I guess you're safe.

Just a quick question Achronos (although you didn't answer the last). Why was this trust algorithm messed with in the first place?

I cant see how some members on this which I know have gone from a member to legendary in an instant when I fall back to a member without warning.

Hopefully when I come back from class it will all be fixed.
Hopefully not! I kinda like being Mythic. It would be unfair for them to promote us only to knock us back down.

They wouldn't do that to us, would they?


I believe they should... Sure I'd love to be promoted, =P but it's a glitch. I'd rather get it by earning it than a glitch.

That's weird. Were you heroic since Achronos turned on the titles?

It wasn't until after there was the "glitch" with the member titles. When everybody was Mythic. After that was fixed I guess my title went down. Oh well. :/

I joined 2 years ago. :)


But yeah, after seeing a 3-day old account have Heroic, I have to agree that join date does not play a huge factor in ranks.

Finally Achronos gave us what we deserve!
...







Massive bugs.

Which we can attack their weak point for massive damage?


I once stepped on a spider... I think I got +10 exp.

I was bored with being my old title anyway. Maybe when this gets fixed up, I could be like a "Super... Dracula... Hug" guy. That would be fun.

Or better yet. "Emotional Support" like my hero, Disembodied Soul.

Does it really matter how many people play it as long as you dont have to maintain servers?

Posted by: Achronos
No, it is certainly a bug. I just did the calculation manually for a few people, and discovered that the titles are indeed screwed up. There should only be 13 Mythic Members, and 1736 Legendary Members based on the current math (which is still less than I want, but that's a different problem for a different day). Not sure what's going on, since the numbers are all correct, so I'll keep looking.


wow only 1700 legendary members, nice, i am in an elite club for once. I was mythic for a day lol, that was cool.

Well he did say that there should be 200 Mythics, and (though he didn't say this part) that means the next time he changes the trust system he's going to have to pull those new Mythics from somewhere. My guess is we may even see some people who just got their Legendary title become Mythic, but probably not a lot. Most of the new Mythics will probably be people who had the Legendary title before the system changed in the first place. I don't know how may Legendarys we had previously but it didn't seem like 200. Even when giving myself a large margin of error I think it's far to say that there be a least a hand full of new Legendarys that will take another step up in the near future.

I'm guessing that a lot of members who joined in 2003 and 2004 will be Mythics when the code is changed in the next build.

Yes he did but he also said...
Posted by: Achronos
...they're only supposed to be about 10000 to 15000 Heroics and about 200 or so Mythics.
Edit: After taking a closer look at the post, he mentions that the 13 Mythics includes employees.
