  • I think that everything you do affects the user title you have.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Achronos There are currently 259 users that are Mythic, 3848 Legendary Members, and 11351 Heroic members. That leaves a number of "member" accounts in the range of X, where X is a multiple of 1 million. The system is designed to reward you quickly enough if participate positively. I don't continually adjust the formula, it has been constant for a long time now. Just because you think it is based mostly on time as a member doesn't mean it actually is. It is WAAAY more complicated than that. Specifically - the system is a relative ranking. That means your ranking changes based on the maximum possible score, as defined by the person with the highest rating that day. So, if the max value changes, your title can change, especially if you're on the borderline between one or more levels. Move along, nothing to see here.[/quote] I'd be a kid in a candy shop with all that knowledge... No seriously, I wish I could have developed a site like this. Sometimes it just blows my mind as to how maintained it is, and improvements are always trying to made... Coming from a guy who stopped making sites years ago... Holy crap. Lol.

  • Would I be right to assume then, that using the R - button in times of need, is beneficial to myself? Even while I am just, [i]lurking[/i]...? : )

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MrSpinkleswirth Your mother would...be friends...with my mother....and they'd go out for tea or something....yeah. i just wonder how the system works in judging a positive post....what if i'm just joshing around with a friend of mine, and happen to make a few negative posts that he would react to positively? eh. whatever. i don't really care about the "system" anyways. i could stay member forever and not give a damn. all i see is a fancy colored hat.[/quote] Most likely it's more of a "lack of negative points" rather than "abundance of positive points". It very likely keeps track of how many posts per day, and then looks at how many bans/warnings you've had. Lots of posts with no warnings or bans means you're a positive poster. That would be my guess. It makes sense. :) Although it's probably far more complex.

  • Since the system is so complicated, if I sent it an email saying how sorry I am, will that affect my chances at getting back to Heroic? :(

  • Why do i crave legendary. I must have it. Give it to me now. I have stayed heroic ever since i got it and hopefully can keep up a stable title.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Zanoshikaru I was once a Heroic. Posted in a seemingly harmless thread and got blacklisted for three days. Now I'm a regular Member. Life goes on.[/quote]I was banned for three days long ago but eventually made it to Heroic status. After about 4 months of Heroic, I suddenly went down for no apparent reason. Unlike several people who come out and say things like, "WTF? Why did I get deranked? I didn't do nothing!", I simply kept quiet. Two weeks later, I skip Heroic and now I'm Legendary. :P
