The possibility that we could have done something differently haunts me.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
Remember when Achronos wanted to nuke the Flood?

Good times.

Its Bungie's own fault for raping their own site. They brought it on themselves.

I only recognize like 3 people on Bnet now. The place is a god dammed mess.

Occasionally I think of CamCamm and how last time we spoke she thought things would get better.

Dank memes coming through.
That would've required Bungie to abandon the idea of turning their site into a social networking emulator/ad campaign.
I don't get why people like Camm, DTL, Beetle and Otthild can't just abandon ship. It would be so much better here with them.
Because they don't want to deal with the ill-festering drama that is this place?

It's true, a significant amount of you fuckers aren't exactly 'down to earth.'

Keeps things interesting at least.

I don't even see what the big deal about followers is. I have 100+ just from doing what I usually do. It's not like number of followers means anything.

As if there is anything interesting here.  I just check in every once in a while to see when the place will fall apart from drama.

there was no reversing what bungie did. the community was extremely vocal about our opinions. they never listened. they didnt manage the site properly, kept minimal oversight over the ninjas (who were actually ok as a whole, but there were a few really bad eggs,) and followed the money trail wherever it led. they were the architects of their own destruction.



edit: besides, it was honestly never a utopian paradise anyway. the mains were clusterfucked. private groups were generally hostile to each other and offsites caused more sectional dysfunction later in b.old's life. it was unstable for a long time and imploded on itself.

They listened pretty well... to the community forum. You know, where they talked about the site itself in a meta sort of way? Yeah, that place that we never really understood what to do in? Were like, people circlejerked the mods and staff and tried to get questions in the mail sack? They wanted everything that b.next was.

it was impossible to get a word in edgewise in the community forum if you werent a massive cocksucker. ugh.


they really should have outsourced multiplayer design philosophy to the best halo players on the site, too. if we had been allowed equal balance input with their internal designers we could have kept halo 3 and reach constantly updating with new balance changes to make sure we could reach an optimal experience for all players. destiny would have been an entirely different beast to deal with, but that may have happened differently in an alternate timeline where bungie didnt fuck up...

I don't know. Fact of the matter is it wasn't so much the "Desticles" as it was Bungie becoming a huge disappointment and the mods not even moderating.

I'm never going going back and I'm not a Bungie fan anymore. If we can even call them Bungie at this point.
Here's my sumup of Activision-Bungie.

Personally I don't feel like Bungie is Bungie anymore. I mean, all the people that made up the young buck we knew left, and they left a much different beast. Overflow from the halo forums used to be our new blood but those who destiny brought in were... different, and so what used to be the advantage of being on the B.net, faded.
