Subject: Should a warning really take away your title?

Yes, I AM just that awesome.

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


Looks like I picked the right time to stop being naughty.

It only takes a simple question to change everything.

I don't think that a warning should take it away, I think that warnings shouldn't exist. Your one and only warning should be the forum rules.

Is it really that big of a deal?


Yes, I have been a supporter of Bungie for 10+ years and to be punished in anyway besides a temporary ban from the forums seems rather insulting. Granted, you are correct. A title on the stupid internet does not mean anything, but it is nice to see a basic Thank You for being a customer and a fan.

Warnigs shouldn't take away titles. I mean they are just warnings, so why should they have a punishment?

Well, isn't the term "just a slap on the wrist" basically saying that something is just a warning? In that case, you still get slapped on the wrist (which can sting for a little while).

I think it's perfectly fine for warnings to affect titles.

Warnings shouldn't have any effect on trust. The whole point is that they are meant to be a warning, not a punishment.

"Now, we must all fear evil men. But there is another kind of evil which we must fear most, and that is the indifference of good men."

Get at me

I think it's fine the way it is. People just need to stop complaining about it. Honestly, I think that at least some portion of the community is motivated by the possibility of getting a higher title. They promote good behavior. Obviously this isn't 100% accurate, but I'm sure that the "incentive" of titles somewhat reduces that amount of trolls and spam on the forums.

Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

The person who got warned broke the rules. They should be punished otherwise they would just get used to getting away with things.
Titles are a good way to do this without actually blacklisting the user from the website for something that is not very severe.

Alas, titles do not matter. Don't take it too seriously.
I like the color of the bars. If they had a rainbow gradient bar... Then I would really take titles seriously. If only a rainbow gradient bar existed... Then I'd rave over it. :3

ISU Cyclones!

Titles... eh... do a little good if pointless in the grand scheme of things. They definitely have an impact when looking at someone at a glance. When engaged in a conversation they're meaningless but they do matter for a first impression.

I'd be all for an overhaul in preparation for a new franchise though. Mix things up a little.

He's right. There is intelligent discussion amongst the Community in this thread, so I don't see why it would be considered humorous.
Sorry, but to be frank, shut up Nedus. Nobody asked you to post. yellingatmods.jpeg

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I'd love to see titles done away with, except for the fact that I think I'm going to have to call Tom's bluff. Twenty bucks says you don't do it.
