I'm not like the people at the Reach Forum, I swear. Also, I don't just play Halo: Reach anymore.

I made this account a couple weeks after getting Halo: Reach. I never ever played a halo game before, so I thought this would be a good username. I was wrong, so hoplessly wrong, and I wish I could change it. But I must push on...

FOR NARNIAAAAAAAAA!

I just have a few questions here to ask and discuss about:

1. If you become an Absent Member, if you come back will you even be able to use your account, and if yes, will you still have your other Titles, like Heroic for an example?

2. How much time of inactivity do you have to rack up to become an Anonymous User (Deleted)?

3. Nevermind, looking at the wrong thing.

1. Yes you can use your account. Your title might take time to work it's way up again.

2. It was an auto-deletion system that's been disabled in 2010. Your account right now cannot be deleted.

3. Goweb isn't inactive. He last signed in a few weeks ago.

Also, I love you both.

1. Yes, you can still use your account. Absent Member IS your title. When you post, you'll lose the absent Title, but no there is no telling what your title will be.

2. That isn't a title or anything. It's just an account being deleted. Bungie.net used to auto-delete accounts if nobody logged into them for an entire year. It doesn't do that anymore, so you won't be seeing any new Anonymous posts.

3. Ranks take priority over titles, goweb's account says he was online a month ago, and you're taking titles a bit too seriously if you're comparing them to things like that mate. They really aren't that big a deal.

Also I hate Spawn.

Check out my Soundcloud account to hear some of my music.
Here's my twitter, in the off-chance you want that too.

Bye.

1. I think you are reset back to member, but you progress through the titles a tiny bit quicker*

2. It used to be 1 year of inactivity (not logging in) caused your account to be auto-deleted, but when Bungie went dark that was turned off. Possibly because people are leaving in the darkness and will return when there's something to discuss on the forums

3. Goweb was last active on June 15th 2012. He's here, he just doesn't post. Logging in counts as activity.

*I think


[I hate Burrito and Spawn].

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

I think so too. I was an absent member. When I started posting again I still had the absent member title for a while, but I became Mythic a few days later.

I had no idea there was a B.net achievement website, interesting.

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.

1. Absent simply means you've been away for 2+ months
2. Anonymous User (Deleted) was for accounts that were absent for over a year. I think it is disabled now.

That is a fan run website, not affiliated with Bungie.

As mentioned before, the auto delete system was disabled awhile back for reasons unknown to at least me.
