** Current way to become a Theme Master

*** In groups, their title bar color changes to the normal base colors.

OTHER TITLES
* These titles are given out to special members, Bungie employees, and Forum Ninjas.





KNOWN ABOUT BASE TITLES
* Titles are based on two numbers assigned to a member: trust rating, trust modifier
**Trust is calculated daily, which could be a reason as to why member's titles change.
***Your title is determined by what your score is in relation to the person with the highest score for that day.
****More info



THEORIES & FINDINGS
* Logging in each day, or posting a certain amount of times each day may be part of the criteria for raising a title. Participating helps.
** Unlinking/Linking your Gamertag is highly probable to lower/raise your title.
*** Receiving a warning or ban will lower your title
**** Account age helps

*TOM T 117's thoughts on being demoted without any warnings or bans
*ecartman1214's theory on Max Value changes
*American Recoil's theory on "Trust Points"
*Eldude95's Theory on how trust is earned
*pitbullfathead's theory overall

DANGIT! I knew I was missing something. I even thought of it as I was writing it, but then forgot about it.

There is a reason I am user ID 1 and my account creation date is before this site came online.

Holy hell, I never knew that Lorraine had a B.net login. Why didn't I know that and spam it constantly with annoying PMs?

Man, I guess I don't know everything aboot B.net.

Good idea making a list, I might get fewer PMs about my title now.

Doubt it. You should also note in the guide how many people hold each rank. That might be usefull to emphisize how special they really are.

Nice job! Thanks for this. By the way, the title "CompoundIntelligence" should only be one word, with the "I" in "Intelligence" capitalized.

I would say sticky but nobody reads the stickys anymore. It's sad really, but thank you for the hard work anyway.

Edit: I guess people do read stickys.

Yeah well done, pretty in-depth and accurate. Might stop people asking "whats this [insert title here] title?" all the time, but for some reason I doubt it.

Very nice work. It must have taken a little while to get, and I think it could help quite a few people get an answer to some forum related questions.
It certainly answered some of mine.
Not to sound cliche or anything but I think this deserves a sticky.

I'm avoiding Bungie.Net until I complete Halo 3: ODST's campaign on Legendary. That is all.

Nice list! :D
