Subject: New titles under your names

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

...Don't even give me elite crap because you can't brag about something that everyone's entitled to chose from.

Easy there tiger.

How about the silliness over whether someone chooses between a Spartan or an Elite model or forms a group based on it?

Maybe not true (or typical) elitism, but certainly some form of twisted pre-teen prejudicial nonsense. And it sure is messy.

You see, insecure people will always look for a way to try to separate and then denigrate others in order to feel better about themselves. Just look at how Europe treats Belgium.


We have avatars... selectable avatars = selectable member titles. There's really no difference. Bungie gives us a few options, we chose. If there's any of that silly stuff it will probably be rare and there are millions of users on this site.

And, if I see the word "elitism" one more time, I think I'll explode.


Same here... I hate that word. It's the excuse for EVERY idea on this site... didn't even Achronos himself say that the post count thing never caused elitism but they only removed it because of spam? If that won't promote elitism, what will?

Stop that nonsense. It's rude, and quite frankly a little bit elitis-

/me watches the gorefest.

And I agree. I'm tired of people saying that nothing can change because of elitism. I have an idea- let's take away correct grammar. From now on, every post will need to go through a |337 speak filter.

See? See how great it would be if everyone was on the same ground? While we're at it, you're not allowed to have any personality. Each post will need to go through a screening process. If it's not completely stoic, it will be revised. We dont' want some people getting too popular from "nice" and "helpful" personalities. That might be elitist.

Of course. You have no life, Bungie controls everything.

I have an idea, why not if you are temporarily blacklisted, you get some awful title that you hate for about a month. It would be fun to see the title "Newb" elitisized!

That is just completely wrong. People who use proper grammar and spelling do it simply so as to not look like this guy:

"hey guyz, i hurd dat halo 3 will hav more beter grafix and hav alot of cool new stuf like lazerz and man canonz and da elitz wil b on da earth side againzt teh profet of trufe is dat write??? and dat ther wil b a demo nex yeer 2 and dat it wil cumm out at da ind of da yeer nex yeer????? iz dis tru?????"

That was the worst example but you get it. People around these forums use proper grammar and spelling so as to not be disregarded as another idiot or an Elementary School dropout. (This post was hell on my spell checker)

How about random titles? Like:
Forum Wierdo
Local Crazy Guy
Needler Whore
and other stuff. You wouldn't choose them, they would be assigned randomly. If you got one you didn't like, just request a mod to change it.

Good to see at least somebody takes this place seriously

I am sincerely disappointed in everyone except JIMH. JIMH, have a gold star.

Every regular member should be changed from "Member" to "Memberino". That's just my two cents.

PS: the Belgian reference was a joke.


We only humour the Belgians for their chocolate and beer, and mighty fine it is too.

We already have signatures? why do we need custom titles too?

It would be calculated from your stats. Ya know, like how your level is calculated. Only with this, it would come from your medals, hit percentage, headshots, and so on. If you were some how able to go through all of your stats, and record whatever you have more of, and give yourself a witty title from your data.... then would you please do that for me too? :)

It's fun to appear higher than other people?


It could work, but the problems that would ensue I'm sure are too many.


Yeah it is, but at the end, it will be totally pointless.

Titles linked in any way to Xbox Live: Bad idea.

And there -are- people here who don't play Live, or even Halo, you know...
