"I wort wort wort you."

Now that bungie is no longer a part of Microsoft, will they still use Windows Live ID for bungie.net or switch to something else?

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

Windows Live ID use has been here since before the Bungie Studios/Microsoft merger. WLID allows use to view our Friends List, see our Gamer Cards in our profile, and link our Bungie.net accounts to our Gamertags.

Losing WLID would take those away with it, or at least make it take more clickes to find some of these things.

Whether it's superbouncing or interrupting weapon animations, just because we don't personally ban you for it doesn't mean it isn't cheating and extremely poor sportsmanship.

and that would be bad.

I'm certifiable.

I don't know for certain, but my educated guess would be that WLID will stay so long as Bungie.net ties in with XBL Gamertags for player statistics.

-- Steve can't think of a better way to tie the two network identities better, which is a shame... if he could, he could sell it to Microsoft and ditch the ol' day job.
