I say yes because it makes things a lot easier on the player not to have to switch accounts.

You obtain drunkars and sweet tooth by double clicking a stack(s) of item(s). It won't be much cheaper than that.

the real "value" of the title is not in the incessant double clicking of stacks of booze/sweets, but in the time spent to attain all the gold/platinum that is needed to attain those stacks of booze/sweets.... esp. if you actually did it the hard way instead of using a gold seller (which sadly many people do use for those "e-peen" titles) :s

You would still be spending the same amount of money to max the title once, so it isnt any cheaoer in terms of cost.

Again, do you really expect people to sit at their screen and achieve these titles on every character they have?

Elder III · Jul 10, 2008, 06:44 PM // 18:44

^^^ it's not the cost of gold or plat that is cheapened, it's the sense of accomplishment that is cheapened.
It's the idea that "oh it's tooooo hard *insert boo-hoo-hoo here* so I "deserve" to have the title rewarded to all my characters instead of just one." Well I disagree with that mentality, both in GW and in RL......
the rest of you are entitled to your opinions of course

These are just gold sink titles and take no effort whatsoever, they should only be account based if every other title is.

No you keep on contradicting yourself.

The only achievement in these titles is clicking your mouse button over stacks of alcohol / sweets / fireworks. You cannot cheapen this anymore then buying 10000 points worth of consumables and double clicking them. Whoopee! What a great accomplishment!

Blacksephir already pointed that out, then you related it to the cost of the items in Plat.

Then I counter this opinion, and you say 'It isnt about the cost'.

Both of your opinions have been countered. Either make up a new one or stop posting the same thing again and again.

I think the one thing that becomes apparent in all the threads on this subject is the complete lack of any logical explanation as to why they want the titles account based.

At least debate it a little, if you get your way those who have already got the titles the hard way will feel really let down.
Those who do not want titles forced on all their characters will be pretty annoyed.

Yet thread after thread day after day you come out with the same rubbish.
Too hard too expensive too much time too boring.

Because its all about what you want no matter how it affects others.
I would have more respect for your position if you spent a little time working out how it could be implemented without upsetting other people in the game.

But no that's all left to us to make compromises all aimed at helping you get what you want.

Just for once I would like to see the I want brigade do some thinking about a compromise solution that gains their objective without alienating others.

There is no *hard way* to obtain those titles. There never was.

If you think that clicking those stacks of consumables split on multiple characters is easy way out comapred to doing exactly same on single character ...

Raccoon · Jul 11, 2008, 01:47 PM // 13:47

I think your all a bunch of lazy whiners to be honest -_-

So you cant have the same title on a different character. BAAWWWW. If you are grinding for these things then perhaps you should pick a different title to work on. I personally just love collecting everything at the festivals and giving it all to my mesmer. It's a personal title as well. Where is the sense in one character having "drunkard" when it hasn't even had any alcohol used on it.

You people who are so concerned about titles should take a look at all the other account based ones first.

NeHoMaR · Jul 11, 2008, 01:47 PM // 13:47

The titles cannot be account based right now, it's too late. I mean, people working in different characters titles will complain. This things should be implemented account based from the beginning. At least they know this for GW2.

MithranArkanere · Jul 11, 2008, 07:01 PM // 19:01

They are just gold sink titles.

But they are increased mainly in outposts, so it doesn't matter which character maxes them, and that makes them a perfect match four account-typing.
On top of that, most people will max them just in one character (as I bet ANet Devs can easily check with one database inquiry).

Unlike other grind titles, they have no benefits for maxing, so it does not really matter much.

/signed though to make it fare they i think would have to rase the cap and compinsate for the people who already have gotten it.

Thank you your comment and the one from zwei2stein I do read all the threads before I post and yes I probably should have worded my reply better.

No of course I wasn't implying these titles were difficult but you must accept that this thread is part of many larger threads all asking for titles to become account wide.
Some are difficult others not, these titles take time and money.
I want you to have your account wide titles and if you or anet can come up with a way to make it work then fine I will back those ideas completely.

1/ you must make it clear in the titles how they were won so those who do it character by character can be seen to have achieved them that way.

2/ no character is forced to accept a title across their account.
So when you earn a title it comes up with a message accept for all characters yes/no

You would probably end up with
Sweet tooth "Gold" ie this character earned it
Sweet tooth "Silver" ie this character got it via another characters work.

This could be done for all the titles, now that might just make everyone happy.

now that i think about it. who wouldnt be happy with more titles on all there characters?

Artisan Archer · Jul 12, 2008, 09:11 AM // 09:11

ofcourse not, it's a fun title, you don't need it AT ALL.

the HoM thing is enough.

Zahr Dalsk · Jul 12, 2008, 09:19 AM // 09:19

All titles should be account based to support players who like multiple characters. I'd rather titles be removed entirely, though.
