I actually like this update. It gives us information about a poster we may not have been able to gather ourselves. I can now say "oh, he posts regularly" or "this person hasn't been banned much or at all". Giving us insight into why people have the titles they do is important for the titles to mean anything.

When it was just Member, Heroic Member, Legendary Member, and Mythic Member we had no idea what went into the calculations. At least now we can glean a little information from the titles.
I don't know if we can say that sort of thing with certainty, but I'm doing the same. [;

I have found that digging through the archives of the oldest forum can show some interesting iterations from title system.
Just came to say, you had the 777th post in this thread Recon!

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

So what your saying is that the missing pre-fix is....

Anonymous User (Deleted)?

That was my own private theory.

Does it even matter? It's Recon. We don't need to glorify him more, he's probably already the most glorified person ever. Although he deserves it.

Hey Recon, have a link to go with that statement?

What do you mean? You think you've got my number?
Not at all Recon, not at all.

You're not going to quote this an insert links into it either....

Thanks for the great games Bungie.A rpg from you would be kinda cool,make sure you keep your story lines and plots epic.

Bungie is always tweaking and making things better in game or on the web.They actually pay attention to people after they put their game out,you have to respect them for that.

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

What ever happened to those days where it was just "Member", plain and simple?

  • 11.14.2008 2:37 PM PDT

Work like you don't need the money, love like you've never been hurt, dance like noones watching.

This represents me.

I think it is a good addition. Livens up the titles a bit.

I like this update. I wonder what the unconfirmed prefix is, though.

I wonder why Bungie would make this happen.

  • 11.14.2008 4:02 PM PDT

So if Exalted, being the highest, is related to ban history...being banned twice kind of kills that for me, doesn't it? I'm wondering if warnings have any effect.

  • 11.14.2008 4:25 PM PDT

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.

I think it would be cool see Bungie employees with tiles such as Grizzled Ancient, Old Skool, etc...

"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."

The 3 ban related prefixes have different requirements, varying time and allowed ban lengths/counts. Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Do you have numbers? How long does it take to clear say...a 7 day ban?
