Subject: New Forum Titles? [WITH PREVIEWS LINKED!!!]

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

~Long Live Halo 2
Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

"OMG, halp me wif the vidmasturzzz" "Join mah groop, we r doin the vidmasters today, k?"

And as long as they don't get them soon, posts like that will rack up. Fast.

I was talking about Explorer, 75 posts is a small amount for eager new members.

I don't like them. Also, why give the earliest members a title color, and then go down again? I do agree that the newest users should have a Newbie title though.


the newbie title bar is black....


In EVERY forum? What are people going to talk about in the ODST forums without getting banned for spam?

We miss you Logan.
Ask any question. I'll help with anything on site or off.

I don't think so because it'll effect the current titles.

I don't like them. Sure, they could be tweaked. Maybe we could put a little more weight on the current ones.

I just don't like them. Maybe because it's past my bedtime.

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

I think we should have some new Forum Titles. I've come up with a couple myself, but if you have any ideas just tell me it and I'll make a preview of it. Make sure to include the name of the title and the color of the highlight. (Sorry can't do text colors)

Explorer-Make 75 posts in every Forum
Newbie-Kept for the 1st month of making an account
Popular-Have a total of 50 Bungie Employee OR Forum Ninja posts in your thread history


These were just thought of off the top of my head. Once again, feel free to give my your ideas and I'll make a preview (like the above)!

-hoobla-


I feel so mislead.

  • 08.30.2011 9:23 PM PDT

It only takes a simple question to change everything.

I wouldn't say that the popular title is right. Forum Ninjas are just trusted members. Bungie Employees post when they post. I don't think that they post in a thread just because of who made it. Popular should be getting 50 hot topics.

@Geegs30

I can see a lot of people making threads close to: "Mods post here!" and "Bungie answer me!" just because people want that Popular prefix.

Explorer ought to be given when you make a hot topic in each forum. Though I can see people spamming mindless threads as soon as they learn that's the requirement. I can see where Achronos is coming for. Online community engagement and retention is harder than it looks.

So if I get popular does that mean all the bungie eployees will like me and I will have lots of people who want to be my friend?

So let's say i don't want to be "popular" for the rest of my bungie.net career. What then?
Let me specify;

With all other titles and prefixes, you have room to move up and down.

With the criteria you've placed on your titles [aside from newbie], you hit a number and you get the title. No room to move after that.

No that's reserved for Heroic Members.

Also dmg, I'm a fan of titles and prefixes being unlockable you being able to choose them as you please. Therefore, your problem is solved if my idea is implemented.

The popular one would be a pain... I see massive amounts of brown nosing.

No. And those are terrible.

I spend too much time here.. too much time indeed.

I tweet?

Impractical titles, two of which could actually be counter-intuitive to what's expected of us here.


I'm sure you'll dislike them in the morning as well...

Then you are destined to be invited to every new group, quoted in every discussion and have a meme about your mother widespread in bungie folklaw.

Youngie by day Youngie by nature.....

It would be cool to have some titles that are randomly given out under some pre-determined rules (like currently) but which are a bit of a joke. Legendary spammer...

It should be FNG instead of Newbie.

Agreed!

Hello, I'm Mr AwesomePizza. I like pizza and I'm a man. Reasoning for the name. I like to listen to the classics of music, write poetry, play video games, and much much more. I'm always down for a nice chat, so please hit me up for some conversation.

No, those titles are a little to easy to get.
The current ones are fine enough, they get to the point and are awesome.

I'm not a fan of the "Newbie" on as it's more a a derogatory term than anything else.
Seems more like an insult to me which could either run people away from the site or it could make people think, "hey im not a newb why do i have this title! I want a better one!!!"

Op...

No.

Just... no.

Why? Because B.net isn't a personal popularity contest. And trying to gauge someone by the number of employee posts doesn't mean your 'popular'. Especially if it's a beatdown post, and/or they may not have been be replying to you in said thread.

Now there should be a title for perpetual newbie....

Explorer? I can see people getting banned left & right for that one just trying to boost BS posts in H2F, H3F and ODST forums.

  • 08.31.2011 5:13 AM PDT

I don't like the titles in the OP, they don't fit with the current titles, and they promote spam (except Newbie).

  • 08.31.2011 5:35 AM PDT

These titles...they don't really seem fit to here, they seem like your "status" titles, or sort of a reputation factor in a way.
