Not to sound like a bitch or anything but...why was I demoted from Mythic to Legendary?

JimTheAdmin · October 18, 2014, 07:56:26 PM

There are titles? Because I think I may just be a newb then.

Yu · October 18, 2014, 07:57:10 PM

No idea. Maybe the system was tweaked a little.

SecondClass · October 18, 2014, 08:05:44 PM

Everyone's rank went down.

RIP custom nameplate

EDIT: And it looks like it changed again.

Yeah, I'm not editing anything. You both are just rocking back and forth on the line between the two prefixes.

You don't, but enough up or downvotes can change your rank, then you'll know.

It would be one thing if people were going back and forth because of legitimate criticism and votes, but it is just a bunch of trolls downvoting everyone, it makes the system a joke.

Like I said, I do plan on weighing the system differently for high-post members. On the other hand, you (and Korra) are at a very high level in terms of Prefix. These higher levels will always be more unstable than the ones below them; this is done on purpose to give meaning to upvoting and downvoting someone.

I'll update everyone once the weight is put into effect.

Just a thought, I wouldn't cater to people who constantly complain about their rank. It's something to be earned, and if you're going to whine about it then maybe you don't deserve it. I mean if it's an obvious issue of trolling that's one thing, but if it's because having a special custom nameplate or blue bar is that big a deal to you to the point that you're going to throw a fit to get and then throw another fit when you lose it, well...

It's a genuine "issue" with the positive trust essentially losing steam with high-post-count members.

Stablizing the equation will just help bring the negative trust down to the effectiveness of a lower ranked member. It's a good thing.

Just since I've been wondering...how is it that Slash and Yutaka aren't at Mythic yet? They're the next two most active people on this forum. Does Korra really have that much of a boost in upvotes?

Yes. Slash is very close and Yutaka is...not as close. With more time online and a few more upvotes, they can join the blue club (or rather not, since they're staff and have fixed colors...).

Oh, I see how it is, now. You're really asking about yourself. You're closer than Yutaka.

Uhm...not...entirely? I mean sure I'm curious, but it's more about how far off the gap is between our current Mythics and anyone who might be close. I'm not really the type to just ask about my own standing. Frankly, I was surprised when I managed to get past Heroic since I stayed there for so long.

I peek at the stats once in a while just out of curiosity.
Plus Yutaka has more activity than I do, so if anything he should be closer.

You've got a higher Trust rating. I don't make the rules.

Ok, I actually do make the rules, but in this case it's not my fault.

What about negative ranks, Cheat? Are we ever going to see the return of Deej?

They're possible to get, but it's really hard to do now. I have no idea if you'll ever see someone with it (unless they're trying to get the prefix on purpose).
