Member-Mythic Member titles should be discontinued.
The Heroic-Mythic Members titles don't represent much. The people who have these titles don't always represent positive contribution, or have an integral role in the community. They have been here for awhile, and have avoided being blacklisted.
The colored bar is no indication of whether you're a good member or not, and they don't correlate whether a user is worth listening to or not.
Achronos has a stance against the Post Count feature we use to have, Achronos doesn't like the post count because people used it as a statistic, and users would constantly compare themselves to others. Are titles any different?
Some say that titles are an incentive for good behavior. I really don't think that's true, I don't come here, post daily, and be a good community member so that I can achieve the Heroic Member title, I do it because I love this community. The people that do see titles as an incentive for good behavior, they are doing it for all the wrong reasons.
We are all just members of the bungie.net community, titles are pointless, and I hope that users don't read posts based on the posters title.
Titles are unnecessary, and again they don't represent how good of a community member you are.
Before anyone gets mad, the point of this thread is to remove Heroic-Mythic member titles. The people who have deserved custom titles such as Theme Master, and Webcam MVP, deserve to keep them.
Examples
Example One
Example Two
Example Three
How is this an accurate measure of trust? No those aren't shopped, I would post the threads but that would get my thread locked for defaming specific users.
Suggestion!- If Achronos won't get rid of member titles, he can at least place them in our Bungie.net profiles. Your title doesn't need to be shown right by your post. Also, if this is implemented then no one would judge you by your title, but by the content of your post.
Any thoughts Achronos?
