Although rare, there are still users on Bungie.net who do not have prefixes with their title. This thread is not aimed at people with the title "Member" but more toward the people who have prefixes or not, and are above member. But, even if you are a member, you can still participate. I do not commonly see this at least, but I have seen a few Heroic and Legendary members with no prefixes, I have yet to see a Mythic Member with no prefix.

My reason behind making this thread is wanting to see how many people would rather keep their prefix, or go back to the throwback when you had no prefix; just your title. So, if you are a member this can still apply to you, would you rather have a prefix or would you rather rocking the throwback Heroic, Legendary, or Mythic Member with no prefix. Why?

I personally wouldn't mind just having Mythic Member, it would be quite nostalgic, actually.

I think I prefer the titles with prefixes, it adds a bit of variety and shows a little bit about the user.

The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

As you waste your breath complaining about life, Someone out there is breathing their last. Appreciate what you have.

If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything.

I like the prefixes.

I have seen Mythic Members without prefixes too, usually recently off a ban.

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

They are just titles. . .

I'd love to be able to choose from prefixes that you meet the requirements for.

I don't think they should be done away with though.

In some ways, prefixes are more important than Heroic/Legendary/Mythic titles.

Those base titles only show how much time you have spent on the site, whereas the prefixes show how long you've gone without bans/warnings, allowing forum members to figure out who is a reputable poster and who isn't.

  • 01.20.2012 3:21 PM PDT

I like the idea of being able to customize your own prefixes.

Because its yet another title or prefix thread.

I like titles. They're cool and more could be done to make them even better. But the amount of threads made about it is just insane and makes me want to just forget about them.

And it's just a thread, Ken. I was just reminiscing on when I used to see people without prefixes and thought, hey, why not make a thread. No need to get all condescending and pretend like we're above the title system. No matter what, it's a prominent factor and harbors conversation.Posted by: Phenomenon IV

As do I, always have. And maybe even being able to turn prefixes "off" could be a new idea.Posted by: A Deaf Boy

Sorry if my thread bothers you, sincerely (I am not a jerk). I just felt like making a thread, and I don't usually see threads about this aspect of titles. Sorry once again, but I just felt inclined is all. :)Posted by: HALO3syourdaddy

No no no, not done away with! I just want a poll of the community who wouldn't mind not having a prefix, or who would prefer just to see what it looks like aesthetically and whatnot. It pays to fully read the OP, you'd see I wasn't like "BAN YE PREFIXES" haha.

Pft. I know you're not a jerk, and it doesn't really bother me. What bothers me is the lack of a central thread dedicated to discussing titles and stuff like this.

I usually post in the FAQ but since I wanted to do a poll for once, I thought making a thread would be okay! :D

I read the OP, I wasn't implying you wanted them done away with, just was conveying the fact that I want them to stay xP

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

I have seen you future

While they are just silly hats, I like the prefix. There's something nice about a three word title. Besides, it's nice that you sort of know how the prefixes work.

I used to get myself banned so I wouldn't have a prefix.

I'd actually prefer if more prefixes were added. Out with the old and in with the new.

I believe Achronos is going to change the title system once the new IP is announced anyways. Whether that means more/new titles and prefixes, or an entire new system. I'm sure we'll see some changes.

Based on the title's reference to Hamlet, I thought initially you were contemplating suicide over the title system...

Since that obviously is not the case I digress.

Personally, I couldn't care less about the title system. What is it, anyways? Dog treats, really. They are rewards of sorts for participating on the website. My reward is simply in being a faithful member, as well as the priceless moments between community members here.

It's a rather wonderful place, when you put aside materialistic values.

I can't remember who it was, but I've seen a mythic member without a prefix. Anyway, I'd rather keep them.

To Make Posts is Glorious

Some threads will get posts before others and it is the duty of the Leadership to ensure that posts are made that best suit the public welfare.

"heh"

Who cares?

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

I hate my prefix.
