It was more of a double take but yeah. I should have Veteran.

Oh I'm very close.
You're hilarious, dude.

This just hit me, isnt exalted technically nothing but a synonym of noble, or the other way around?

Exalted = Elevated (of higher rank).

The meanings seem pretty irrelevant, but they're the titles for the system, and we'll just have to memorize the order.

Edit: Parallelism.

You haven't been here a year AND you have warnings AND bans? Why would a "trust rating" system give you a title again?

And no, the signatures aren't going to be added back.

Hm, interesting. One warning, and one ban, been here since April, and still a member. These new titles will still be just as shrouded in mystery and given to undeserving as before.

Next up- custom sigs that appear at the bottom of posts, and not under the member profile/drop-down arrow.

Youve been a member since april.

I dont think that accounts as 'veteran'. Not in the slightest

Really? I had no idea.

Not sure if this was a good idea, all it is is even more confusion about the ranking and title system, which will undoubtedly bring about more threads asking about it.

I work at Microsoft. I have nothing to do with Halo and nothing I say is "the official word".

Noble/Honorable/Exalted all seem pretty close to me, at least just by definition. Although I guess exalted has more of an implication of other people thinking highly of that person.

My Youtube Channel. For Gameplays and Montages.

I just got Heroic back about a week ago. Now it's gone again. It shouldn't be that hard to get Heroic. Oh well back to Halo 3 In The Workplace. I have Foreman there.

I have been here for 14 months with a 3 day and 7 day ban...I guess i'm not in too good of shape. How strict is the trust system?

hmm... If a sixty day card is thirty dollars, that makes WoW cost 50 cents/day. The African child I support costs me a dollar/day. Therefore 1 African child's life = 2 WoW subscriptions.

Whoa! That's odd.

I went from heroic to honorable...i think thats bad right?
Also is the ranking system automatic?
Thanks

Well it would depend when you got banned for one thing...
and then there are all the other factors which we don't know about

Well, to me, that suggests that those titles are related in some way (which they are).

Specifically, they're related to having clean ban histories, relatively speaking.

Although Honorable and Noble are appearing a bit too much (they're overriding two other prefixes that they shouldn't be, that will get fixed tomorrow, and some honorables and nobles will switch to something else).

Ooh let's see if I have a shiny new collection of letters next to my name.

EDIT: Nope.

To stay somewhat on-topic-This seems like a fairly interesting update.

Are there still "unique" titles, like "Webcam MVP" and stuff?

Been here for 3 years almost 4, got two 3 day bans and I went down from a Legendary yesterday to a Heroic.

Foman and I had a conversation and he told me I would gain my Mythic status back in a few months...

I'm liking the new system, I think the new prefixes will show off a person's worth, even if they don't have a member title that correlates to their prefix. I just wish I knew what "Intrepid" correlated to as to my history on Bungie.net. I hope the ban I had in August doesn't affect the prefix, although I'm sure that it's affecting my member status. I can barely pull a Heroic some days when I post almost nine times as much as a Legendary member....

Ah well, either way the new title system is a bonus, in my opinion. The under-the-hood work should hopefully pave way for new changes in the future. Maybe some bigger stuff...? Another New Hawtness, I sense....

Either way, thanks for the server stabilization, Achronos. No more post errors would be a welcome reward for dealing with it for so damn long. Any idea when we might get some of our post history returning to us, or will the stabilization not affect the problem that forced you to remove the tracking that went that far back?
