Subject: Title Prefix Scenario

NB: This is just a hypothetical, "what if" question.

What would it be like if once you reached the criteria for multiple titles (for example, elder and fabled), you could select a title from a list of titles you still qualify to have? Think about it, having a very high post count and being an active member for about 6 years are two very different things yet the (approximate) list of priority still comes into play. I personally think it would be a nice option for people who want to show off a particular prefix of theirs more than the one higher on the priority ladder.

Also, perhaps prefixes which are inferior to prefixes of the same type but are of a higher level could be overridden. For example the highest selection would look like this:

Exalted: No bans/warnings in 3 years
Fabled: Very high post count
Elder: Active member for 6 years

Once a user no longer qualifies for a prefix (perhaps for absence) the option would be removed until the criteria is met again. Base titles wouldn't be affected by anything mentioned.

This isn't really a suggestion as I'm still rather fond of the mystery-shrouded system which no-one (possibly including the creators) could ever hope to fully understand. So, what would you think?

Edit: On the other hand you could think of it as a suggestion if you wanted to.

Can't be too careful with your company. I can feel the devil walking next to me.

If I could have Veteran over crappy Noble, then yes.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I wouldn't mind.

I know for a fact I'm never going to get any other predix other than my beloved Fabled because of my ban history. You just cant forget 25 bans in a year and give me another title.

If I am not posting, then I am reading what you might have posted.

That would be awesome! Good idea!

Have you seen my mind anywhere? I seem to have lost it...

I have seen you future

I think this would be a great idea. Some of the lower titles (Veteran, intrepid) just sound cool. It would be nice to be able to pick from the ones you have unlocked.

I support this idea. I'd much rather be an Elder than Fabled member. Unfortunately it'll be another year and a half before I get Exhalted.

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

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

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

It's been brought up multiple times, and I'll say the same thing I always say: Yes. I love this idea, when I qualify for Veteran in November, I'd like to be able to put that up as my prefix, rather than having Fabled until I can stay unbanned for 3 years.

I WAS SOCK

I want to be an absent mythic member =3

But seriously, I've always liked this idea. I'd be Elder Mythic for sure.

I like this idea. I also wouldn't mind this for base titles as well.

I like Elder much better than Fabled, and I have the feeling I'm not alone.
