Why don't bans affect your rank at all?

Yeah getting warned/banned makes you lose your custom title for a little bit, big deal. How is that even considered a punishment? If someone gets any kind of ban they should at least get bumped down a rank or two to convince them not to act like shitheads. Anyone else agree?

Yea, I bet Cheat is going to steal this idea from you and say it's his own.

This was the case at some point...

But Kinder is Mythic, so Cheat probably changed it.

I don't remember this ever being a thing.

I've suggested it more than once in the past.

closer to a system that begins to resemble the Bungie.old Prefix rankings.

In which, bans effect rank.

I don't believe the Trust System takes into account bans/moderation history at a severe enough level, but I do believe that will be changing soon.

Get a ban and get bumped down a few ranks? That's ridiculous.

Get a ban and have your trust negatively affected? I thought we were already doing that.

Verbatim · January 04, 2015, 05:50:26 PM

I don't see how it's ridiculous. I mean, it's a title bar. You'll survive. You're not supposed to enjoy punishments.

The punishment for a ban is that you're banned. Getting a lowered trust also makes sense, but it makes no sense at all to demote a Legendary to an Ascended, for instance, just for a lite ban.

Oh, it wouldn't apply to one lite-ban.

But, for users who routinely find themselves either lite-banned, or with more severe penalties, could have more trouble.

You guys need to stop calling it a "lite-ban", too. Looks like "life-ban".

I actually said the same thing...
