Bungie.net needs the rules it has. If you want a forum with no rules go to the forum I won't name. You can figure it out if you look hard enough. It's memes seem to overflow onto Bungie.net on a daily basis.

No, it's necessary because of the regular members who abuse it. It's an insult, nothing more. Play nice.

hmm... this was moved over from the floood for some reason... anyway im not saying i dont play nice (except with stupid people... i flame them) its just i see some RANDOM punishment happen allot here... in other forums the mods have a tighter rein on right and wrong.

just an observation im not saying everyone go to halogrid or finalfight or summin.

The rules are needed to keep the main forums from becoming some sort of horrible hell hole.

Well, maybe you should try to spell better. I mean "ridonkolous"? If your post is just a bunch of dribble, I can understand it getting locked.

As far as moderators and the rules, they are actually fine with me. Moderators don't make the rules, they enforce them. If you don't like them, talk to an Overloard. I like the rules the way they are. Mods do a wonderful job on these forums. It makes sense. Also, some forums have more restrictions than others due to things such as the community population and how people act on the forum.

its like a large force of win going through fusion, thus creating a chain reaction of a huge asplosion of win destroying any fail within its awesomeness.

I was going to reply to this thread with the standard "blame stosh" response, but then I wanted to say "needs more cowbell." So I have concluded that I blame stosh for needing more cowbell.

Rules are necessary because people can't control themselves. The rules here on Bungie.net and for any forums have come into effect due to the lack of responsibility some members have. There were once times when rules, spam filters, and the sort were either not so heavy or didn't exist. Guess what happened? People abused the power they had and then the rules came down upon them like a sack of bad potatoes. Rules for reasons.

Broke no rules?


As noted the notices and guidelines for the forum, discussing the leaks before the magazine hits stands is a bannable offense, with actual links resulting in a permaban. You will remain banned until the issue hits the newstands, at which time you can discuss the matters in the forums


BAM! You discussed/posted info from leaks when that was a no no.
All aboard the complain train, people! chucka chucka chucka chucka whoo whoo!

Necessary. You have no rights; play nice.

You can always use other forums which don't have rules.

Yeah um this isn't the only forum in the world.

Thats all I will say.

  • 08.18.2007 3:43 PM PDT

I've yet to see a single rule that I disagree with. I think the way that this forum is run is quite well. I'm glad that they have rules like this otherwise it'd be massive chaos.

There are no irrelevant quotes of historical figures here. Neither will you find any links, chain posts, memes, clan advertisements, self-promotions, or the tiniest of ASCII pictures.

So go away.

Absolutely necessary.
I got a warning from a mod once for posting in a spam topic. And I totally deserved it. I love the mods. They do a kickass job of reprimanding us when we're dumb. If anything, we need more of them; a lot of us are dumb.

Funny thing is, Bungie picks the rules, not the mods. The moderators just enforce them, really.

Yes, they're necessary, for people like you, specifically.

You have been warned and banned multiple times. GameJunkieJim didn't ban you for "no reason", you were discussing and propagating leaked content including scans.

This thread is locked because it is whining by someone who doesn't like the fact that these forums are not his personal playground. If you have a problem with it, you are free to leave. Based on your long history of rule violations, the forums probably would be better off.
