Subject: Does anyone else notice a certain trend in member titles and maturity?

Posted by: Implausible
Most girls I've been with were hesitant about taking it in the mouth. But once they did most would swallow. I got tons of compliments on the taste.

I think it's because of my diet. No fast food, no alcohol and lots of fruit.

I've only avoided getting banned so that I can be a better troll with my blue bar in the flood. I don't think my maturity has changed at all in the mean time.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

Oh there's definitely a high correlation. Think about, would a member ever progress if the mods and ninjas had to submit warning and file bans due to immature and profane language.

It's fun to see some members get snapped into place and become productive members of the site, myself included. However, with age comes regret and shame [when reflecting back].

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 logged on and was shocked to see that I lost my blue bar! But I posted once, logged back on just now and I'm blue again. No need to panic.

The lack of new members is probably why. Calm before the storm and what not. The nicest it's going to be is right before Bungie shows trailers/makes announcements about its next project. Then new members, new trolls, new problems. C'est la vie.





And if the Flood is a zombie apocalypse, than this place is the umbrella corporation. >.>

Wake me, when you need me.

Unfortunately my grey bar did not entitle me to any wisdom :/

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

I know who you are.

Been here longer. Sometimes wisdom comes with experience, other times, entitlement.

Maroon 5 is awesome. Deal with it.

When you get to the rank of "Mythic" you will learn that we all have auto correct that makes our posts seem more Mature than they actually are.

We're still the same poop flinging monkeys you normies are. But with different color poop.

Yes.. and to make it seem that higher titles are more clever and mature we should have different fonts for each title too.

If and when a new flood of members comes to the forums (no pun intended) for whatever reason, be it a new project unveiled by Bungie or whatever, the title system may have a bit more significance to maturity compared to the examples shown in this thread. I for one always feel like I have authority or a more valid point over those who have less experience. I don't apply that to these forums however, partly because I haven't actually been here as long as some, and partly because I'm not good with authority.

I guess some people assume a certain role when advancing in title, and that titles come with responsibility.

I actually quite like this, although it would be a little unfair on those who won't be taken seriously due to comic sans.

I don't think higher members are more mature, they just get better at hiding their insults. With every new bar a members sarcasm becomes drier and drier, until eventually they become Master Forum Ninjas. At that point you can answer every question, and still leave everyone confused.

Meh. I could care less about the title system. I'm not convinced it's all that accurate and representative of anything more than account age most of the time.
I for one always feel like I have authority or a more valid point over those who have less experience.I also dislike this kind of attitude, specifically that last line about having a more valid point than younger accounts. If we're talking about the community, then that might be true. If we're talking about almost any other topic than it probably isn't. I understand why someone would have it, and I know I can take/have taken the same attitude at times, but I don't think it's a positive.

I agree. Higher titles usually do correlate with more maturity and post quality. However, that isn't always the case. I've seen exceptions, both in regular members being very intellectual and high-level members acting with a large lack of maturity.
HOOBLA911 here has nailed it in the first post. There's always exceptions.

The title bars only indicate how good the poster has been in [x] amount of time, but I guess they might be acting more mature; generally.

That's awful and two of those aren't even web standard.

I would like to be a Mythic Member, or a mod.

REALLY BAD. I believe I deserve it, I am very loyal to the dear Bungie forums and want to keep everything in tip-top shape. Its always a real pleasure to be on the forums and I want to be recognized here.

I think tittles are just a "age is just a number" type thing. They really don't change much.

You do realise you only half quoted me there right? I said I don't apply that to these forums;

I use that in situations like in gaming or sports. For example; if I was explaining a common and useful strategy to a Halo 3 newbie and they tried to explain their strategy, from experience I could tell whether that strategy would work, and whether mine would be better. My apologies though, I wasn't all too clear with my point there. I personally wouldn't apply that to these forums because experience here doesn't necessarily make anyone better than anyone else, it just means you have more knowledge of how the forums work and have a better understanding of what is tolerated and what isn't. When you apply that to the correlation I suggested that exists, it just means that "higher" members are better at hiding their insults (as some1 with guns said) and frequenting the use of sarcasm until eventually they've basically got nothing to provide to the community besides dry humour.
