Is it really that big of a deal?
To some people, yes.
To most people, no.
All them -blam!-es love my title.

Yes.

  • 09.13.2011 12:24 PM PDT

One of my ideas.

Feline Doom : Steampunk mecha anime with kitties.

Get rid of titles in general. Coup would be more special then.

Coup isn't all that great, with or without titles.

I don't think it should.

Why does anyone elaborate the title so badly? It's nothing more but a theme you earned over the years of activity and respect.

Elaborate the title so badly?

To be honest, I like the title system. It gives incentive to be more active and to not break the rules.

Yeah, I think it might be time to go back to no titles, and there were two bans - 7 day bans and permanent bans.


No.

No. You did something wrong. Stop whining because you made a mistake. Gosh.

Would the bans be solely for the forums or private groups as well?

I feel it would be best to completely lock out a user who has violated the rules from ALL of bungie.net just to make a point as to the idea of "think before you post"

If you didn't, wouldn't an offender simply find a private group to bother?

By doing this, you eliminate any sort of reliable way to judge if you can trust a poster.

Though, the title names do seem antiquated, they can easily be replaced with ones more befitting of the new direction of this site.

Also, since forum ninja counts as a title, and a neat one at that, would you really replace that with moderator?

As my final thing to say for now, I feel as though your rules are not strict enough. If one were to use the Flood as an example, one can easily see the multitudes of spam threads that infest it daily.

When I've been on here for over a year and have around 1000 posts trying to get Intrepid Heroic, yes, yes it is.

Yes, one hundred and seventeen chalupa's have to be served to the king right away. That's what the conclusion looks like anyway...

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Please do that.

I hate this title bar system!

Says the Fabled Legendary Member. Nobody would have anything to "work" for then. Nobody would care if they got banned because they can just log back on with another alt. That's a terrible idea.

I play for fun and armory completion. :)

Although the title system does promote hierarchy, I actually agree with Duardo. The title system is a good incentive to be active and follow the rules, I know it has even worked for me, despite the fact that I have no title and have not had one for over a year. Gives me something to work for haha.

Never thought of it that way.

I am human, I am good and bad as well. But I try my hardest to stay good. And some of the things I do and say may be bad. Or just not too good, but I do try.

So with that said I don't fault you. I mean your only human, good or bad.

Yes.

Care to elaborate?
whats there to elaborate? Bans are warning and warnings are bans.Take for example in a group when you try to warn them they still bet blacklisted and that's a ban.

I agree with you, the titles motivate users to follow the rules and be more active in the forums, without incentive, the forums would just lose some activity.
