I am starting to see Legendary Conqueror of Cerus title with it's purple embellishment ("legendary") on a very regular basis.

I could tell you how so many people are getting it, but Anet would probably hang me, then shoot me at dawn, and then drown me.

[Sobx.1758]

I find it weird to keep asking for them to add/modify rewards in this game for... things you did in another game years ago.

Why, selling group content is officially allowed?

I grinded out some rewards in a few different games more than a decade ago too. I'd love to see GW2 dev resources allocated to rewarding me for all of that effort. I've seen some rewards that other people have worked hard to get in this game and figure that I want them too. They would work great as rewards for my efforts in those other games.

This is a great point I didn't think of. Devs taking time out of their day to change the color of a title could push the next JW release back weeks. Months? What do you figure . . ?

You understand this has been in the game since launch right . . ?

It's not selling, it's a bug/glitch. But I thought it was fixed. But then, idc so I haven't really been keeping up ; p

Probably wouldn't set things back too long so adding rewards, or just giving me existing gw2 content rewards for my efforts in other games, should be fine. I've managed to get some top tier cosmetics in another game or two so perhaps giving me legendary raid armor? 

And yes it has been in the game since launch but the request is to upgrade/modify that existing reward (and there have been requests to add even more gw2 rewards for gw1 players in the past.

But why the petty jealousy? What difference does it make to you if anet acknowledges the long term commitment of their most loyal players . . ?

[Arianth Moonlight.6453]

I once flushed over 1k bucks into the game. Gimme a purple title, something like "Cash Flowing Among Mere Gamers" or something like that.

[Gop.8713]

We do in fact have titles/rewards just for blowing resources. And I say why not . . ?

Well, the truth is that Anet did downgrade the rewards that were initially promised to GW1 veterans. Nobody made a lot of fuss about this, sure, but the fact remains.

Besides, i don't think that adding some very minor things that likely weren't added then because there simply was no tech for it yet (like the different color for the title) should be a major issue for some reason. It's not like people are asking for a ton of rewards (or even making good on original promises) after all.

It's just a coloring to one title. That does not require a lot of work, nor does it really take anything away from other players. The only reasons i might think of why someone might be against it are jealousy, or finding fun in denying fun to others.

Perfect, and then they could colour one letter of it for every additional thousand to spend!

Also the colour is random so if you don't like it you have to keep spending to reroll it.

Sure. Shouldn't take any more work to give out gems to those who bought premium currency in other games either. I would rather have the raid legendary armor though.

[Gop.8713]

So basically what you're saying is you know you don't have a rational argument so you're going to make absurd comparisons instead. Okay, we've got it : )

[Biziut.3594]

The lenghts peoples will go to feel like a special snowflakes is astonishing. I could understand having such ambitions in real life, but whats so important about couple of colorful letters. You are just playing a video game, nothing more nothing less.

I got titles from few cm's too. Couldn't care less if they are colorful or not. I'd still use "Knight of Thorns" for thats what my character is for me.

[Biziut.3594]

Hey. I might be just blind and couldn't find such toogle in options, so correct me if it's already a thing.

What I propose is a toogle to turn off other peoples titles (And maybe the guild tag). "First world problem" I know, but sometimes in large groups I want to find someone or something by it's name and the stack of long letters on the screen cover up most of the names.

Figured I'll ask since we have toogle to hide pretty much everything, downgrade character models, infusions, effects and full names. But again, correct me if this feature exist already and I am too big of a dummy to find it. Orherwise, what do You guys thing?

[Mungrul.9358]

I got past seeing titles as meritorious a LONG time ago now, and if I use them at all on my characters, it's usually for flavour, like "A Ferocious Hunger" on my Necro, Trog Stratosphlegm, "Killer Queen" on my Warrior, Prince Voltan, or "Omnomnivore" on my Asura Mechanist, Omnom Becky with her mech Omno Barry.

So, again, if you claim it's not important to you, why is it important to you that you deny it to someone else . . ?

I've never cared about titles or cosmetics or any of the other things that the apparently "typical" gw2 player is into, but idc if they get them. Why do you . . ?

If you odn't care about the issue,why comment on it? But thanks to agreeing that you see no harm in this proposal.

God Walking Amongst Mere Mortals (GWOMM)

God Walking Omong Mere Mortals? :P I'd pass it as normie typo there, but you repeated "GWOMM" numerously in your post, while the correct abbreviation is GWAMM ;)

Oh I do not agree in the slightest. Thought that my post says that in between the lines. But if You insist than here You go. 

I prefere ANet to focus on other things rather than painting some old titles to stroke some insecure egos.

[Ashantara.8731]

I wish there was an option to deactivate title colors so they all show in the regular light-grey. I find them super annoying/distracting.

[andreiblue.8231]

A wardrobe unlock selection would be the best QoL item for those who want a item which is currently unavailable (such as gemstore skins which aren't in the gemstore)

What was in the game since launch? People asking to add/modify rewards for what they did in another game 12+ years ago?
Or just... the title in general (and some skins from HoM)? Because if you're just commenting about what's already in the game, that's not what my comment was about. My comment specifically -and I hoped clearly enough- commented about people demanding/asking to add or modify the rewards all these years later, for what they did in another game.

Hopefully now you understand what you commented on wasn't really what you quoted there.

That's just your rather dishonest* spin on those comments to avoid addressing what you're quoting and  ""responding to"". I don't see "jealousy" here though. I see direct comparisons to this "give me more in this game for what I did in another game" request.
