Subject: Off with the titles.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Okay, it won't really matter. Titles don't really mean anything. They are taken way too seriously though.

My only qualms with titles is that a warning strips it.

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.

I Stopped reading there people think what they want to think I'm sure achronos had a reason for doing what he did. It just shows their veterancy.

It only takes a simple question to change everything.

People will always act like they are better. Take away titles and it will be something else.

You say others are making to big a deal of them. You are making a big deal of them yourself by making this thread.

Real question, why does it matter?


Incorrect, just because I made a thread about i dosn't mean i'm making a big deal about it in my opinion. I'm simply saying my opinion and asking for yours. Not all of the users here make a big deal.

Why are people making such a big deal over titles? Sounds like its a combination of jealousy and inpatients to me.

The title issue is only an issue if you make it an issue.

That is my point., if users didn't take them so seriously we would be fine.

Here is a great idea. We get rid of the ranking system and make it so you can set your own custom avatar, title bar color, and title bar text.


Now what would we fight about? Join date? That's ridiculous.

Achronos himself has mentioned that the title system isn't likely to stay. I don't mind if it stays or goes. There was a time when people would recognise a name for a name, not a name for a title.

Pre- and just post-Halo 3 were the best times, because people actually pay attention to the individual users. If I lost my title now, I doubt anyone would recognise me when I posted. However, back in say, 2006, I was a fairly well-known member of the community. There were no titles back then, and people would often meet in-game through matchmaking and say "oh, aren't you Dropship dude from the forums?"

I'm on the fence with this one. Annoyingly, it's a razorwire fence.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

I don't understand why so many people care about titles... They mean absolutely nothing.

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

Our destiny is not frightful because it is unreal, it is frightful because it is irreversible and iron-clad. Time is the substance I am made of. Time is a river which sweeps me along, but I am the river. It is a tiger which destroys me, but I am the tiger. It is a fire which consumes me, but I am the fire.

Legendary member master race, reporting in. Heroic plebeians and pedantic mythics need not apply.

Seriously though, nobody cares about a title. It's like when you were 5 and your teacher would give you a sticker if you stayed on your best behavior.

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?
