A little bit of old news, since Duardo announced it a few weeks ago. But private groups are going the way of the dodo. I was never involved in many so I'm not too broken up about it. (They were dead anyway), but somehow this feels like a prelude to nuking the entire forums themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if this is the direction Bungie is going, considering how cold and corporate they have become. They yeeted at least a third of the community, took a dagger to the culture that made the forums special, and now they are sterile. There's activity, but its a mere whimper compared to the anarchic chaos that was The Flood (and even Offtopic).

Tardo is still there eh?  It always feels a bit weird seeing names from the past.  Like the old mod team guys.  I was posting on Bnet in 2008 or earlier, I remember screen names from 15 years ago and now they all feel like characters from a movie I watched before.  I'm surprised at the amount of them that turned out to be cucked out morons all along like Achronos.

There's nothing of value at this point to save on the entire site so nuking the groups is no big deal.

Why the long face?

Perhaps we can keep the torch burning by making private groups a thing on this site...

Google Coups on Bnet.  There some amazing memories

If I am ever able to quit my job I'd likely have the motivation to finish (ok, let's be honest... start) Septagon 3.0, which has private groups.

it’s ok when bungie axes Destiny then I guess that means you will have one less job

The addiction is real. You're absolutely right lol. I have a serious problem.

  Cheat I would keep this site/site maintenance as a hobby.  I would not quit your job over it.   

Bungie isn't really Bungie anymore and hasn't been the Bungie we've known for a very long time now. This website is more Bungie.net than the real one. As far as private groups being completely erased, none of it is surprising anymore and really, they'd just be doing everyone from the old community a favor at this point, because they're all dead.

They already erased everything Halo related even though they said they wouldn't back in 2021, and the layoffs in general are pretty fucked up. I know most of you will disagree, but in my opinion the old website during the Halo days really was something, and we won't really have anything like that again. At the rate that website is going, I'd rather have them re-enable deleting inactive accounts, since I myself don't even go there anymore. Bungie now more than ever is run by a bunch of yes men, and any of the "loyal fans" that go there now since the Halo days and still support everything Bungie does today are merely cuckolds.
