My Necro and Ranger see alot of action after I'm done rushing my Warrior through each new chapter/GWEN.
Find it easyer to do the recon on the warrior, he's used to being killed and stomped on by all kinds of mob's, then comeback and do it the right way with Necro or Ranger. Ele is only used on rare occasions these day's.

Mostly I play my ranger. I decided to do titles solely because she'd done everything else and I love the ranger play style.

Warrior, farming or running, Ele and monk are mostly farming.

Just noticed I'm level 8 on my monk on my second account. Basically rushing her through Cantha to duo farm and get all the ectos. Haven't died yet, so the survivor title might get a look in on my first account at some point. Not something I'd ever worry massively about TBH.

Once looooong ago I had every slot filled with a pve character. I worked hard to get them the right armors/weapons. Then armor swapping in PvP was dis-allowed. That day saw all but 3 pve characters deleted and immediately replaced with pvp characters except one slot incase I needed to roll up one that I didn't have.
1. Nebu, my necro is my title carrier. My first character and by far the most played of any one but it's almost all pve stuff.
2. Light, my monk. Mainly TA and GvG. Used to HA long ago with her quite a bit and probably got 75%+ of my fame from her. I used to do UW solo with her back when Protective Bond worked and for a little while afterwards but lost interest since my warrior could make a lot more faster doing Drok runs. That leads to my last remaining pve char.
3. Meat, my warrior. He was born to drok run. This was when there was only Prophecies and he made me a fortune. If I don't monk I used to play warrior in gvg. Remember when we could remove our exhaustion by swapping weapon sets =].
I quit the game for about 7 months over last summer. Since my return I have unfortunately done much less pvp and way to much title crap or TA with guildmates(not dissing TA just not anywhere near as satisfying as GvG imo).
My pvp characters have all gotten minipets they are so old now(except one slot for ass/derv/ranger as needed).
Nowadays when I log on, unless a friend/guildy needs me, I am vanquishing/guardian stuff or some other title related crap. He's at 14 titles maxed and while I really doubt I will expend the effort for max KoaBD. The other PvE's get played when they are needed by someone else anymore basically. Not for lack of love but for lack of goals for them. With so few titles account based they have basically become pvp characters with pretty weapons =].

Of the ten I have, five see regular action so far and the other five have had their share of action, just not so much yet. In the long run, they'll all get played. I can't stand these sorts of games with just one or even a few characters. I always wind up playing just about everything in games where you get different experiences by playing as something else. As an example, after nine months of playing WoW a lot, my highest character was L59 since I had one of each character class, horde and alliance. I never quite finished Baldur's Gate 2 because I was running multiple characters through it simultaneously. Diablo 2, Dawn of War, Warlords Battlecry, you name it, any game where there's multiple, different classes, I'll be suffering from severe altitis.

So far the most play is my warrior, followed by the assassin. The monk and paragon are pretty much tied with the mesmer behind and potentially gaining. Then there's the dervish, elementalist, ranger and ritualist tied but way behind with the necro currently in dead last (heh).

As for the title comment in the beginning, I keep seeing this general concept repeated, and I just do not get it. Never mind the more meta question of if we should even care about them at all, there's no reason chasing titles has to mean playing only one character given that no one really knows how the HoM is going to work or even if some of the things that people are dumping into it is going to matter enough to warrant changing game play style. It could be something as meaningless as the difference between 30 titles on one character and 30 titles on 10 characters is a slightly different colored epaulet you can wear on your guild cape, or maybe no difference at all.

Warrior was my main until I got the hang of playing Paragon. I don't play much so they will keep me busy for a while.
I did the same thing with my Warrior. I played her exclusively for about 6 months and then I decided to try and play and Ele. My Ele has now played through Proph and EOTN and my warr never finished proph lol.

I have 4 PvE characters.

The first is my Mesmer, who was made the week Prophecies came out. I played her for a bit, and then stopped playing GW until last October. She now exists solely as a mule / birthday present generator, as I have no interest in picking her back up. If I were to play a PvE mesmer again, I'd start fresh.

The second is my Assassin, who I'm just not very good with. She's rather entertaining to play, but melee hit and run is a very different playstyle from what I normally choose. As such, I only rarely pull her out of the closet, and then it's usually for some special circumstance - the last time she was played was to run the Canthan New year quests so I'd have more chances at a Rat.

The third is my Paragon, who is quickly becoming my new princess. I made her originally to attempt survivor, failed at level 8, but couldn't bring myself to delete her. She's now getting almost equal playtime with my Ranger and is definitely the spoiled little sister of the bunch. At least, she will be when I can afford her new clothes and toys.

Finally, my Ranger is the character I play most. She is the oldest of the characters I actually play, being born when I came back to Guild Wars. She's the one who gets all the title love, and will be the first to get a full HoM on my account. She's the only one of my characters to complete all the campaigns. Generally speaking if there is title progress to be had in an activity, she is the character that I will be playing.

I also have one PvP Elementalist from the same time period as my Mesmer, who would get the delete stick if it weren't for her birthday presents. My other slots are an ever shifting combination of PvP characters that I roll up to mess around with in RA.

all 10 of my chars have elite armor & weapons that I really like on them. Title wise I've focused on my warrior who has 24 now (close to 26). If any of my other chars get any titles maxed, it won't be cause I dedicated months to it, it's cause i was helping guild & alliance with stuff & got it.

Im mostly on my monk, necro and assassin the most. But I do play my other characters quite a bit. Mostly depends what I feel like playing. Get bored easy so sticking to one character isn't fun.
I only have 4 maxed titles so, meh I dont really care for maxing titles, but my friend is dragging me through prophs hm with him so I guess im going for guardian of tyria on my monk. 8/25 so far, takes to long >_<
