Hmm...a more complex and confusing rank system! This is just what we needed!
:P

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Remember Folks, the old rules still apply...we can discuss the new roles, just not complain about what we are or what we lost..
But that means I have to find something constructive to say! I don't think I can handle that :)


I'm assuming that the rules are stricter now for the titles. I had one 3-day ban about a week after I joined (last november), so I'm assuming that contributed to my de-titlement.

In another Thread I saw the ranks, Intrepid Heroic Member & Absent Member.

  • 11.13.2008 11:32 AM PDT

Without me, it's just "Aweso".

So far, this is what I've compiled:

Honorable Member
Noble member
Honorable Heroic member
Fabled Legendary member
Fabled Member
Intrepid Member
Veteran Legendary member
Fabled Heroic Member
Legendary member
Heroic member
Member

Whats up with "Honorable Member"?

  • 11.13.2008 11:33 AM PDT

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

Cool!

The way the titles work is that the new "prefixes" are independent of the main "mythic/legendary/heroic" titles. Each of prefixes means something different, some relate to account age, some relate to ban history, some relate to forum history, etc.

The "base" titles haven't changed, although the criteria to get them has. The system is still updating for some of you, so it is possible that your base title will change over the next 48 hours (higher or lower). However, a big change is that once it settles, it should be much more predictable (the rating isn't relative to every other user anymore, it is a fixed scale, i.e., get X trust, get A title, get Y trust, get B title, etc.)

It means you're Honorable....and a member. (lulz)

To be honest, until Duardo or Achronos gets in on this then we can only make assumptions of what it means

And there he is. Bravo

Is this the only site change at the moment Achronos because if so we might aswell move the discussion over to Duardo's Title thread and lock this?

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

So that means if someone gets banned a lot from the forums there is a rank for that?

This is kind of what I figured. I'm guessing I'm "noble" because of my ban history. Only complaint is that some of the prefixes are...well...cheesy. Oh well, it doesn't bother me much since I normally don't see the titles anyway.

EDIT - Also, official list of all prefixes? mb mb?

Will there be an update by you or a ninja as to what the prefixes are and what their ascension order is?

"I have no words that would do justice to the atrocities you commit to the English language, as well as your continued assaults on the concepts of basic literacy and logical reasoning."

I have a special place for feedback such as this.

The titles were changed because I had to change the system that runs them to improve performance. Since a lot of people seem to like little badges like the titles, I added a few things. It also softens the blow for more than a few people who will find that the system will place them generally lower than it did before.

But, as they don't hurt anything, and happen to still be a pretty good indicator of behavior, I think your complaints are unwarranted.

So...if we so happen to..you know..get banned A LOT does that give us a different title? Like douche member or something? That would be awesome!!

That's my favorite part, right there. Now, when I leave the country for work for a few weeks, I won't lose my title! Sweet!

Of course, I do have to get my title *back*, but that'll happen in due time.

From what I can see, he now weights main forum activity heavier than before.

I say that because there's this guy who's been here since 2002, is awesome, active (in The Marty Army), and hasn't made a single forum post - and just lost his Mythic.

Maybe I should let the system update before I jump to conclusions, though ;)
