In the past four years or so of titles, many of us rightly criticised them for merely being a more visible form of join date elitism. After all, even amongst Mythic members it's a well known fact that when it comes to blueperiority, '04 or bust. I believe that is so obviously and universally admitted a principle that I hardly think any gentleman will deny it.
In this brief interregnum, we should take the time to think about the very nature of elitism. Is it the watering down of standards of posting? The discouraging of intellectually stimulating discussion? Apathy towards the community in general?
Whatever the reason, you should remember that you have always been inferior, will always be inferior, and even when you are old enough to be considered "Mythic" by the lowly systems put in place by the web team, you will still be inferior. Some among you will one day rise to be considered worthy posters. Most of you will not.
Most of you did not even get this far. Shame on you.
We'll get titles back. But will it be the same, or will it be different? Who knows. Mythics were people I once looked up to. It gave me the sense of knowing who was likely to be a good content creator, or worthy of my time (reading their posts).
After time being on here you become acclimated with who is who, who posts good quality posts, and who doesn't. It takes a while to make a name for yourself, but you don't have to be Mythic to do it.
