Assuming the moderators were gone for, say, eternity?

My bet, 3 days.

I miss the mods right now. We're already seeing the early signs...

.. ?

I could swear the mods are around.. Oh, look! There's one now.
If anything, there's been more mod activity as of late.

Of course, just for the fun of it, if the moderators left Bungie.net, my guess would be that the forums would be in complete chaos and anarchy by about 2003.

Early signs of going to -blam!-.

And if they're back, one of them needs to get over to the Halo 2/3 forums pronto!
Plus, I have some questions that need answering

I'm not so pessimistic yet about the forums. Someone has yet to post in the Halo 3 forums a contest thread about "who can make the longest rap song strictly of profanity, no prepositions allowed?"

Um... yeah. On second thought, I am gonna have to go with the '03 deadline.

I had a feeling the Bungie fanbase primarily consisted of overcaffeinated monkeys. But I never would have imagined this.

Oh, and wait 'til the end... it's the BEST part.

Eagle, I think you're being a bit silly. The Bungie forums are doing extremely well right now, and the moderators are doing a great job, as far as I can tell..

The Halo 3 forum isn't bad at all. It's topics are all about Halo 3. We have very little information on Halo 3, so much of it is ideas, rumors, and speculation.

.. So? It serves it's purpose, and the Bungie forums aren't going downhill at all. If anything, I could swear they've improved as of late.

You don't remember the giant Mods Vs Spammers war that went on for a few weeks late last year? Or the state of the Halo 3 forum which caused significant personal injury to a member? Or the alts in the Flood which are only now being finished off?

The forums have improved tremendously recently. Maybe you aren't looking close enough or in the right places.

Good to hear.

But it does still have its history, as you can see.

If they were gone I dont think it would be so bad. MInd you if a forum war broke out with no mods, ouch. But those dont happen anymore. Mind you, I am also a floodian so chaos doesnt bother me.

I am sorry, but it's history is irrelevant to now and the future. I believe the ninjas have been very active as of late. The only signs of crumbling I see are in the members themselves, the forums are still up and running. I see no signs of the forums going to "-blam!-" anytime soon. If the mods however did go bye bye, I have no idea what would happen. *hides in corner*

Edit: Grammar.

The Bungie forums will never turn to blam. Thats what the Flood is for.

*takes all the crap*

Thanks everyone, now where to put all this.

*puts in flood*
*watches it burn from the flames*

Ah, that aroma of smoke, and burning jerks and spam, along with cool members, always brings me back.

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

You all seem to forget one thing. If we all leave then all you get is Achronos. Trust me. You do not want him as the only moderator on this site.

What would a drunkee d..o...

Oh wow. Thats scary. But really, would he be able to be a moderator, with everything else that happens. But then groups wouldn't get done, and there would be forums wars. So it would collapse, but he would prevent it, which would cause it. Uh oh, to much thinking. *brain explodes* Please don't confuse me like that.

I said Achronos. Not the Webmaster.

As for Achronos he would be a lot stricter than us. He would basically rain down the heavens on poor saps that decided to break the rules. The worst thing is that all appeals would have to go through him. Can you guess what your answer would be?

Oh, man. Someone just told to relay my question about custom game modding to that guy. Good think I didn't listen.

*hops around throwing feces evreywhere while drinking an energy drink*
....
what?
Ohhh the intelligent people are the ones who arent the monkeys.
But being a monkey is fun =[
anyway, what with the moderators new abilities to bring down the banhammer that came with the new hawtness I dont think the forums are going to take the endless swirl down the crapper any time soon.

The truth is out there. We're just not looking in the right places.

I don't see any mod activity. So I guess all these locked threads on the forum was done by some ghost mod.

I don't understand the topic of this thread. As far as i can tell its about how long you think the it'll take for the forums to go to crap if the mods left imidiately.
About a week i think. And then people would realise they could get away with being -blam!-tards.
